Sonic X Shadow Generations launched today for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Switch, and PC via Steam and Epic Games Store.
Here is an overview of the game, via SEGA:
Sonic X Shadow Generations is a title that combines two games: Sonic Generations, where players can enjoy speed-running various stages with Classic Sonic and Modern Sonic, enhanced with new elements, and Shadow Generations, a completely new game featuring the dark hero Shadow racing through dynamic environments. The story begins as a mysterious creature called the “Time Eater” creates distortions in time and space, setting off separate adventures for Sonic and Shadow. Players can look forward to a high-speed action-adventure with distinct gameplay experiences and narratives.
In addition to offering a new Sonic gameplay experience, this title supports 12 languages to reach a wider global audience and was released simultaneously worldwide on multiple platforms. It was also involved in large-scale global promotions, including exhibiting at events around the world.
To further grow the Sonic IP, we have focused on transmedia development as an important strategy, which involves the global expansion across various media verticals and merchandising. Furthermore, this fiscal year is themed “Fearless: Year of Shadow” for the Sonic intellectual property, focusing on global initiatives that highlight Shadow.
