Sonic × Shadow Generations is officially heading to Nintendo Switch 2, bringing with it the same high-speed, action-packed experience already available on the original Switch—this time enhanced for next-gen play. The title includes two distinct campaigns, allowing fans to experience interconnected adventures starring Sonic and Shadow the Hedgehog as they battle the mysterious Time Eater.
The game blends old and new. One half revisits Sonic Generations, where Classic Sonic and Modern Sonic blaze through reimagined stages with updated visuals and gameplay. Features like Chao Rescue missions and the return of the Casino Night Pinball DLC give returning players something fresh to enjoy.
On the other side, Shadow Generations delivers a brand-new solo campaign. Shadow unleashes powerful moves like Chaos Control—freezing time and hazards—and Doom Power, a fierce collection of abilities that lets him charge through enemies, dash across water, and obliterate obstacles with cinematic flair.
The Digital Deluxe Edition, available on both the original Switch and the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2, includes a digital art book, soundtrack, and bonus content like the Terios Skin, which lets players use Shadow’s original concept design. Also included is the “Sonic × Shadow TOKYO MISSION” Movie Pack, released alongside the main game on all platforms.
Inspired by the blockbuster film—which has earned over $489 million worldwide—the Tokyo Mission features Shadow transported to a modern cityscape via time rift, where he clashes with the military group G.U.N. The level includes a movie-accurate Shadow skin, voiced by Keanu Reeves. This DLC is bundled with the Digital Deluxe Edition, available as a separate $5.99 purchase, or as part of a Deluxe Upgrade Pack.
With its fast-paced gameplay, cinematic extras, and two full campaigns, Sonic × Shadow Generations continues to celebrate the legacy of both characters—and now, it’s set to do so on Nintendo’s next-gen console.
