A new meaning for “sonic x shadow”
Sonic Generations, which mixed the series’ old-school 2D and modern 3Dplatforminginto a single game, is returning in a remaster later this year - and Sonic’s edgy cousinShadow the Hedgehogis along for the ride.
Shadow also pops up during the trailer, confirming his playable appearance in the game - having previously been a boss fight in the original Generations. The snippets of gameplay show Shadow rollerblading through levels and bouncing between enemies. If memory serves, it’ll be the first time in a while that Shadow has had a starring role in a Sonic game, with recent games such as the open-worldFrontiersgoing all-in on the Blue Blur rather than his supporting cast.
The original Sonic Generations saw Sonic join forces with himself across eras and dimensions, suggesting that Sonic X Shadow Generations might see a similar tag-team between the two hedgehogs - just not the kind that you’d normally associate with “sonic x shadow”.
Sonic X Shadow Generations will be released this autumn, with a PC release yet to be dated.
