Why you should play Sonic X Shadow Generations

The return of Shadow

Play a complete campaign as Shadow to dive into his dark past and confront familiar foes to save the world and prove why he’s known as the ultimate lifeform.

Race through 3D and 2D levels

Enjoy a collection of beloved 2D and 3D stages from Sonic games over the past 20 years, playing both as the ‘classic’ Sonic from the 1990s and the Blue Blur’s ‘modern’ incarnation.

More than a remaster

PlayStation-exclusive content

Past and present collide in a frantic chase for truth and understanding.

Shadow is haunted by the memories of battles fought and lives lost. But these nightmares aren’t just lingering pain -  they’re prompted by a force Shadow thought was destroyed.

Join Shadow as he embarks on a mission of discovery with bonus PlayStation®-exclusive extended prologue animations, featuring never-before-seen deleted scenes.

Who is Shadow?

Shadow is known as the Ultimate Lifeform. He was created by Prof. Gerald Robotnik (Dr. Eggman’s grandfather) as part of a complex conspiracy involving the military and some ravenous aliens.

Shadow has incredible speed, ferocious strength and a rare ability called 'Chaos Control' - by utilising the power of a Chaos Emerald, he can stop time and appear to warp to a new position instantaneously.

He protects Earth to honour the memory of his one friend, Maria Robotnik (Dr. Eggman’s cousin). While Shadow prefers to be alone, he allows himself to trust in the occasional support of Rouge and Omega. They are the only ones he can count on for help that won’t question his methods.
