Shadow the Hedgehog is back with Classic and Modern Sonic in SONIC X SHADOW GENERATIONS, an all-new collection featuring two unique experiences!
Play as Shadow in a brand-new story campaign featuring never-before-seen abilities that prove why he’s known as the Ultimate Life Form! Speed through iconic stages from Shadow’s history, discover hidden secrets in an expansive hub world, and unlock new powers to take on Black Doom and save the world.
SONIC X SHADOW GENERATIONS also includes a complete remaster of the highly acclaimed SONIC GENERATIONS, a time-traveling adventure featuring a greatest-hits collection of 3D and 2D Sonic stages, now with upgraded visuals and new bonus content.
In a new standalone campaign, Shadow’s nemesis, Black Doom, has reemerged and threatens to take over the world once again. Shadow must journey into his past, confront his painful memories, and unlock new dark powers to save the world.
Relive signature levels from Shadow’s previous adventures and accelerate through mind-bending stages in both 3D and 2D, warped by Black Doom’s influence as Shadow works to piece together the timeline and thwart his evil plans.
Harness Shadow’s 5 new Doom Powers to battle hordes of enemies and tackle platforming challenges like never before. Surf on water, fly over obstacles, and stop time with the return of Chaos Control!
Explore the White Space, an all-new hub world inspired by the open-zone gameplay of Sonic Frontiers. As Shadow gains new powers, he can explore further and uncover the secrets hidden throughout!
Past meets present in SONIC GENERATIONS! When Dr. Eggman teams up with his past self and the mysterious Time Eater to erase their past defeats and rewrite history, they scatter Sonic and his friends across space and time. Now, Modern and Classic Sonic will have to team up to defeat this dastardly trio and restore their timeline to normal!
Spin dash through a greatest-hits collection of 3D and 2D versions of iconic stages from past Sonic games, now with updated visuals and reworked cinematics.
Rescue Chao hiding in every level, rack up the highest pinball score in the Casino Nights Zone, and check out the museum for behind-the-scenes art, music, and more!

adorei o modo historia do shadow e agora estou re zerando o sonic generations nessa versão

fun
A beautiful and painful love letter to Shadow fans I bought Sonic X Shadow Generations in 2024, but between being a dad, life, responsibilities, and having little free time, I only recently managed to sit down and finish it. And honestly, I did not expect it to hit me this hard. My first Sonic game was Sonic Adventure 2 Battle, and since then Shadow has always been my favorite character. Maybe I am biased, but his story has always felt different to me: pain, loss, guilt, purpose, and a loneliness that makes him stand out from the rest of the Sonic cast. This game reminded me why Shadow means so much to me. Without getting into spoilers, Sonic X Shadow Generations manages to treat his character with a level of emotion and respect that I truly appreciated. It is nostalgic, intense, and surprisingly heartfelt, especially if you have followed Shadow’s story for years. The gameplay, the atmosphere, the return to iconic stages, and the emotional focus on Shadow made this a beautiful experience for me. It reminded me why I loved Sonic Adventure 2 Battle, why Shadow became my favorite character, and why this franchise still means something to me after all these years. I do not usually write reviews, but this game made me want to. Sonic X Shadow Generations is emotional, nostalgic, and deeply special if you are a Shadow fan. Maybe it is overrated. Maybe I am exaggerating. But to me, it felt like a beautiful and painful love letter to everyone who grew up loving Shadow. I hate the world for creating such a beautiful story. And at the same time, thank you for giving it to me.
好玩的要死
Weird full second stuttering very frequently. Please fix this.
shadow is aweomse
Es cine
Tras casi 30 horas de juego, considero que la mejor forma de analizar este juego es por partes separadas y con una conclusión de su conjunto. En primer lugar, Sonic Generations se sigue jugando y viendo muy bien, aunque podrían haber aprovechado para mejorar la jugabilidad del Sonic 3D porque si jugaste antes con Shadow, este último se siente muchísimo más pulido y cómodo de usar. Respecto de los niveles, es exactamente lo mismo que la versión original (sí, eso significa TIME EATER otra vez) por lo que si te gustó el original vas a disfrutar este también. Los desafíos están bien en líneas generales pero llega un punto en el que se vuelven tediosos y repetitivos. En segundo lugar, Shadow Generation tiene un mejor control, una zona semi abierta que toma inspiración a Sonic Frontiers lo que la hace mucho más disfrutables. Sus niveles superan en promedio a lo visto en la parte de Sonic, mejorando la fórmula boost y aprochando los nuevos poderes del Erizo. Sus desafíos, al ser mucho menos, se sienten menos tediosos y más divertidos. En lineas generales, si tenías el original, no lo compres a precio completo, pero la parte de Shadow vale completamente la pena. Muy superadora a la parte de Sonic quiero decir. Recomiendo jugar antes con Sonic y luego con Shadow, de lo contrario, se notará muchísimo el cambio de jugabilidad entre 2012 y 2024
