Shadow the Hedgehog is back! In Sonic X Shadow Generations, Shadow teams up with Classic and Modern Sonic in a new collection offering two distinct experiences. Players can take on the role of Shadow the Hedgehog in a brand-new story campaign and experience iconic 2D and 3D stages as Classic and Modern Sonic in the newly remastered version of Sonic Generations.
Aiming to be the definitive blend of Classic Sonic, Modern Sonic, and Shadow gameplay, Sonic X Shadow Generations allows players to explore Shadow’s dark past, uncovering his motivations and gaining deeper insights into his character. Originally introduced in 2001 in Sonic Adventure 2, Shadow the Hedgehog has since made appearances in various games including Sonic Heroes, Sonic Battle, and his self-titled Shadow the Hedgehog.
“With Sonic x Shadow Generations, we wanted to bring Sonic Generations to PS5 and PS4 while pairing a brand-new Shadow storyline to crossover with the original story.
With Shadow’s portion of the title, players will get to know him more as a character and understand his motivations. It will create the ultimate celebration of Classic Sonic, Modern Sonic, and Shadow gameplay that all fans will surely enjoy.”
