The new addition to the game introduces Shadow’s standalone campaign, where players can explore his dark past and learn more about his motivations.

While navigating these time-travel adventures, Sonic teams up with familiar faces, including a classic version of himself. Meanwhile, Shadow embarks on his own journey to protect the world, driven by his strong sense of duty and memories of an old friend.
Takashi Iizuka, Creative Officer at Sonic Team, stated, “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. Players will get to know Shadow more as a character and understand his motivations, creating the ultimate celebration of Classic Sonic, Modern Sonic, and Shadow gameplay that all fans will surely enjoy”.

This new release is highly anticipated by fans of both Sonic and Shadow. The combination of remastered content and new adventures is expected to offer a fresh yet familiar experience.
