    Great remaster, amazing physical packaging

    I don’t have much else to say about this one, but what you get is a fun Sonic the Hedgehog game with high-speed action and deep lore. This game technically has two games in it: one that is a remaster to Sonic Generations from 2011, and an additional campaign focused on Shadow the Hedgehog with an in-depth character backstory. If you’re fortunate enough to get the Day One Edition, the physical release comes with a Journal booklet from Gerald R., and a limited edition Sonic Adventure Legacy skin voucher. Every physical PS5 release comes with a cool reversible cover art (as shown in the posted pictures) that became my go-to cover art in my bookshelf, making it stand out from the rest. Overall, I’d recommend this to any Sonic the Hedgehog fan that wasn’t able to play the original version, or for a modern Sonic release that’s fun to play with.

    Sonic shadow generation awesome game

    My favorite sonic game yet. 2 different play styles. Easier than sonic superstar. Graphics are amazing. Game videos are a nice touch. Can switch character from small to large sonic. A must have. Buy it

    Worth it on Shadow's campaign alone.

    [Employee of bestbuy] I would typically be cautiously optimistic as a sonic fan whenever a new game would be announced. This game however had me hooked the second I saw those trailers as I knew I was gonna have an amazing time playing it in its entirety.

    Awesome game!

    Pre-ordered this when it was announced, and it arrived a day early and in perfect condition! As for the game itself, for $50 it was a LOT better than I had expected! Sonic Generations has been upgraded a LOT for modern consoles and the new Shadow Generations game was surprisingly fun to play, despite having its frustrating moments.

    Sonic X Shadow Generation Reviews

    Sonic X Shadow Generation is an incredible game, the switch between Sonic and Shadow gameplay is very different and makes them feel like its own separate game. The Shadow story is also very dark compared to Sonic with some beautiful looking levels escalates the gameplay experience to new heights.
