Even though it wasn't among the most popular Sonic titles, Zero Gravity showed good progress, and Free Riders destroyed any good will that the games may have had left. The end of Sonic Riders was a sad event to witness. Sonic Frontiers may be the biggest Sonic game to date according to developers, so the series is still surviving, but that doesn't make the fall of Sonic Riders any less brutal. Not to mention, the Riders games' signature rivals, the Babylon Rogues, are very fun characters whose futures were left in limbo after Riders games stopped being made. It's a shame, because the Riders games really did have potential. Because Sonic Riders hadn't built up significant goodwill the way that a series like Mario Kart had, it's also hard to imagine a revival after being gone for so long. There has not been mention of another game in the works in over a decade, so there is no question that the series is completely dormant. After Free Riders garnered such a disastrous reputation, there was no hope for the Sonic Riders subseries.
