Sonic X Shadow Generations is a remastered and content-expanded version of the 2011 platformer titled Sonic Generations. The game was developed by the Sonic Team studio, and its release was handled by SEGA, the company overseeing the brand.

Plot

Sonic X Shadow Generations offers two stories. Fans had the opportunity to experience the first story in the original. Classic Sonic is known from the first games under this brand. Modern Sonic was appearing in the newer parts of the series. They must join forces to once again thwart the sinister plans of the villainous Eggman (Doctor Ivo Robotnik).

The protagonist of the second story is Shadow, the great rival of Sonic, whose task is to confront his nemesis - Black Doom. In order to prevent Black Doom from taking over the world, Shadow must travel back in time, confront painful memories, and unlock new powers, thereby reaching the fullness of his potential.

DualShockers: 7.5 / 10 by Jay Ku

Alongside a lovingly remastered Sonic Generations showcase, Shadow Generations is a dark and broody triumph that not only pays homage to the cult classic outing of yester-year for the troubled hedgehog, but also irons out all the aspects that fans didn't quite take to, effectively giving Shadow the do-over they deserve. It's a fast-paced and fluid Sonic title with great new mechanics, a tonne of replayability, and just the right amount of challenge. The fact that this is a short experience will irk a few, as will the lack of crossover between the two games, but all in all, Sonic x Shadow Generations is yet another strong Sonic outing that proves the dark days for the franchise may well be behind us.

VGC: 4 / 5 by Chris Scullion

Sonic X Shadows Generations delivers a sturdy one-two punch of fan service, providing a solid remaster of a 2011 favourite and coupling it with a new game starring a fan favourite. The usual 3D Sonic platforming issues remain and the Shadow Generations open-world hub may annoy those who disliked Sonic Frontiers but overall it's a brilliant package.

Thumb Culture: 4 / 5

As with all Sonic games, you get what you expect. Fast-paced, frantic action with a little dash of challenge. Sonic X Shadow Generations is no different. The game comes to Switch 2 with a mixed experience. Fortunately, the Sonic version of the game more than makes up for the inadequacies of the Ultimate Life Form. Sonic X Shadow Generations receives the Thumb Culture Gold Award.
