Sega has announced that Sonic X Shadow Generations will launch on October 25.
Summer Game Fest 2024 is finally here and we’ve been treated to plenty of exciting announcements, including world premiere trailer, as well as a bunch of game updates.
Among the reveals was the long-awaited release date for Sonic X Shadow Generations, which arrived alongside an action-packed trailer featuring the titular characters as they tackle iconic 2D and 3D stages as Classic and Modern Sonic in this newly remastered version of 2011’s Sonic Generations.
In the game, you’ll play as Shadow the Hedgehog in a brand-new story campaign featuring “never-before-seen powers and abilities.”
“When Shadow’s old nemesis, Black Doom, reemerges and threatens to take over the world, Shadow must journey into his own past, confront painful memories, face familiar foes, and unlock new powers to save the world and prove why he’s known as the Ultimate Life Form,” the game description.
Sonic X Shadow Generations will be available on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch and PC via Steam and Epic Games.
A Standard Edition, a Digital Deluxe Edition, and a Physical Day One Edition will be available.
The Digital Deluxe Edition will allow players the chance to play the game three days early and will also offer extra music tracks from Sonic and Shadow’s earlier games, a Terios skin based on Shadow’s original concept, behind-the-scenes art, an additional Shadow level and skin, and more.
Pre-orders are also now available and fans who pre-order will also receive the epic Sonic Adventure Legacy Skin as a bonus, which is based on his look from Sonic Adventure.
Players who pre-order the Physical Day One Edition will receive Gerald Robotnik’s Journal, as well as a 28-page logbook recording Gerald Robotnik’s inner thoughts and drawings while creating Shadow and the Ark Space Station.
In addition, players who buy the game on PS4 or PS5 will also receive bonus extended prologue animations with never-before-seen deleted scenes.
