A whole new adventure begins for Sonic Team mixing 2D and 3D, as well as recycled and new. In Sonic X Shadow Generations, the most legendary levels of the hedgehog rub shoulders with new creations. All this while introducing the dark Shadow to young people before his introduction in the films. Sega intends to focus once again on nostalgia in fall 2024 on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One and Series.
A brand new collection which includes the best 2D and 3D levels of the saga, this is what offers Sonic X Shadow Generations. By combining classic and modern gameplay, Sonic Team wants to offer the most complete experience possible. It is also an opportunity to introduce the character of Shadow with an adventure centered on his origins. And all with exclusive levels created for the title.
Sega, the masters of recycling
Since the original projects in the universe of Sonic
do not seem conclusive for Japanese society, we might as well go back to what worked. If Sonic Generations was already banking on nostalgia by repeating the most significant levels of the saga, the objective is still the same here. Sonic X Shadow Generations is therefore a remaster of the 2011 title, with the addition of a little content centered on the character of Shadow.
After a return to the basics of the series with Sonic Superstars, we understand that taking risks is no longer on the agenda. And this despite a Sonic Frontiers who, without being excellent, had known how to renew the universe a little. This title is therefore aimed at the biggest hedgehog fans, new players who have not had the opportunity to test the title on PS3, and those who would like to learn more about Shadow.
