===New features===
====Metal Sonic====
[[Metal Sonic]] is unlocked after getting all the emblems, and he is only an alternate costume for Sonic and has no story of his own. He is able to play through all of Sonic's stages by selecting "Trial" on the main menu and then selecting "Action Stage". Metal Sonic will appear as a playable character in a similar manner to Super Sonic (in this case, a big golden question mark). He also has different sound and visual effects.

====Cream the Rabbit====
[[Cream the Rabbit]] makes several cameo appearances during the main game and Mission Mode. She does not speak or interact with the player, and can be seen flying around Station Square when certain levels have been finished, or when a few special cutscenes have been played. She appears in the same manner in the [[Sonic Adventure (2010)|2010 remaster]], even without having the ''Sonic Adventure DX'' [[Downloadable content|DLC]] installed.

====Missions====
{{Main|Mission Mode}}
''Sonic Adventure DX'' features sixty missions spread across the six playable characters, where special tasks must be completed in the game's Adventure Fields and Action Stages.

==Changes==
''Sonic Adventure DX'' includes some of the changes made to ''Sonic Adventure International'', however it appears to mostly be based on the first US edition, showing many regressions upon ''International'' such as reverting fixed bugs and removing newly-added content. Changes include:

===Graphical changes and additions===

*The main characters (with the exception of Gamma, Eggman and Tikal) were redesigned with higher polygon counts. Shading technology was also implemented for effects such as rippling water, though these were not present in the PC version. The textures were also redone from scratch, replacing the old cloth-like look with a more lustrous appearance.
*The original 60 FPS framerate was restored. Unfortunately, due to hardware limitation, the game frequently skipped frames, usually in an uneven pattern (causing noticeable choppiness), even in places where few objects were displayed, and/or where the Dreamcast version did not slow down (however, some effects that caused slowdown before do not affect the framerate in the GameCube version). Cutscenes ran at a lower framerate, but this seemed to have been intended, for cinematic purposes.
*Some sound effects, such as when collecting rings and emblems, were lower in pitch, while the losing rings sound effect was higher in pitch.
*A Camera option was added to the pause menu, allowing the user to select either the original Auto Camera or the newly added Free Camera, which is usually closer to the character. In Auto Camera mode, {{C Stick (GameCube)}} can be used to get a first person view of the environment. In Free Camera mode, it rotates the camera around the player.
*Changes (mostly minor) were made within the levels themselves in an effort to help solve some of the game's problems concerning collision detection. However, many glitches were not fixed, and some new ones were actually added. Some have to do with inconsistency in the port (for example, some windows still reflect the original Dreamcast graphics).
*The Dreamcast's lighting system was completely replaced for the GameCube version; each stage is lit very differently compared to its Dreamcast counterpart, including the character lighting and stage fog.
*The HUD was re-positioned slightly and made bigger in the GameCube version. However, this also made the HUD somewhat blurred.
*The "Now Saving" icon that appears in the upper right corner of the screen doubles as a progress bar that gradually fills as the save/load progresses in the Dreamcast version. In the GameCube version, the text is located in the bottom-right or top-right corner of the screen, in a generic white font. It also does not double as a progress bar. The GameCube version also includes a "Now Loading" variant.
*Transparency issues for the Tails, Knuckles, Amy and Big life box icons were fixed in the GameCube version.
*The names on the character select wheel are slightly transparent in the Dreamcast version, but are opaque in the GameCube version.
*The original game's textures have slightly lost some quality in this version, with many having more artifacts present than their equivalents in the Dreamcast version.
*The aliasing problems that were present in the Dreamcast version have been fixed in the GameCube version.

===Gameplay difference===
*The Internet connection feature was removed. Very few of the downloadable content from the Dreamcast version, such as the Chao Garden's black market, additional voice packs and holiday-themed modifications, were included in the GameCube port. However, unlike the [[Sonic Adventure 2|sequel]], most of the online features were not incorporated into the GameCube game and remained exclusive.
*Many changes to the Chao System were made, such as more interaction with the Chao, the ability to see their stats, as well as changes to the appearance of the Chao. The ''[[Chao Adventure]]'' VMU minigame was removed (instead replaced with a [[Game Boy Advance]] connection feature). The Chao System was overall very similar to the one in ''[[Sonic Adventure 2: Battle]]''.
*The ability to skip cutscenes by pushing Start was added.
*A map, found on the pause menu while in Adventure Fields, was added. This is especially useful when navigating the Mystic Ruins jungle.
*The train used to transport from Station Square to Mystic Ruins is now blue instead of red as in the Dreamcast version.
*Some voice effects were changed like when Tails begins to fly or when Amy swings her hammer.
*The characters' mouth movements match up with their lines in each respective language. However, this seems to cause more graphical glitches (such as Tails sliding along the ground in Super Sonic's story in English). In the Dreamcast version, the lip-syncing did not match either language.
*Loading times are significantly shorter than in the Dreamcast version.
*In the opening title sequence, Tails has his mouth open when he flies by the shattering windows. His mouth is closed in the Dreamcast version.
*Knuckles' purple eyes are more prominent like in his official artwork.
*Knuckles' [[Maximum Heat Knuckles Attack]] has a new charging sound effect.
*Amy's boots are more rounded in the front, unlike the Dreamcast version where they were square tipped.
*E-102 Gamma's adventure mode is no longer permanently stuck at night after completing his story.
*In both the PC and GameCube versions, Sonic and Amy's eyelids are the same color as their fur unlike the Dreamcast version where they are the same color as their skin.
*In the original, their hands were one solid object with lines in them, while in the port, their fingers are separated from each other.
*The PC version does not include a variant of the [[Tiny Chao Garden]], and instead has a generic Chao transporter.
*Japanese language settings are set as the default in the Japanese region, which was not the case in ''Sonic Adventure International''.
*The [[Chaos Emerald]]s found in some of Sonic and Tails' Action Stages have shining effects in the Dreamcast version. This was removed in the ''Sonic Adventure DX'' port.
*In the Dreamcast version, the player could remove the overlay from the Pause screen by holding {{X Button (Dreamcast)}} + {{Y Button (Dreamcast)}}. This was removed in ''Sonic Adventure DX''.

**The reflections on the doors are differently arranged, but they depict the original Dreamcast colors, even on the GameCube version.
**The road was changed from dark blue to more realistic gray asphalt. Similarly, the yellowish sidewalk was changed to a duller gray.

Reviews for ''Sonic Adventure DX'' were generally less positive than those of its [[Dreamcast]] [[Sonic Adventure|predecessor]], scoring 57 out of 100 from Metacritic based on 27 reviews<ref name="mc"/> and 64.43% from GameRankings based on 49 reviews<ref name="grGCN"/> for the [[Nintendo GameCube]] version. GameRankings also scored the [[PC]] version 61.75% based on four reviews.<ref name="grPC"/>

The game's camera system, collision detection, framerate issues, dialogue and voice-acting of the game were the main points of criticism. IGN, who gave a 5/10, said that the game is "a very sloppy port of a game that has long been undeserving of its high praise".<ref name="ign"/> GameSpot, who gave a 5.7/10, also noted those issues and summarized their review that ''Sonic'' fans are "better off sticking with [the Dreamcast version] and not picking up the GameCube version of the game."<ref name="gs"/>

==Trivia==
<gallery type="slideshow" widths="225">
Sonic-DX-UK advert.jpg|''Sonic Adventure DX'' advertisement.
Speed.jpg|''Speed'' poster.
</gallery>
*An advertisement for ''Sonic Adventure DX'' is a reference to the poster of the film ''[[wikipedia:Speed (1994 film)|Speed]]''.
*For unknown reasons, any mention of [[Naoto Ohshima]] (who had left Sega after ''Sonic Adventure'', and had no involvement with this port) was removed from the credits of ''Sonic Adventure DX''. Curiously, he is also the only staff member of the original game whose name was retroactively removed.
*The model used to represent the unlockable Metal Sonic in Trial Mode is not the same model featured in Eggman's lab, which is considerably larger than the player models. Instead, a new model based on Metal Sonic's appearance in ''Sonic Adventure 2: Battle'' was used. Unlike ''Sonic Adventure 2: Battle'', Metal Sonic is a reskin of Sonic, and therefore plays identical to him, including the susceptibility to drowning. Metal Sonic's only unique feature, besides the stock voice clips reused from ''Sonic Adventure 2: Battle'', is the change from running to flying when his acceleration increases. At top speed however, he strangely reverts to running the same way as Sonic does.
*The increased polycount is not applied to any characters beyond the main playable characters, Tikal and Eggman, causing a noticeable gap in quality between the player characters and field NPCs. 
**E-102 Gamma did not receive a new model or texture set, likely due to the fact his model and textures are shared with the E-series bosses.
*In the Mission Mode of ''Sonic Adventure DX'', the player occasionally has to collect gold Sonic medals. Interestingly, these are the same gold Sonic medals from ''[[Sonic R]]''.
*The final picture after each character's ending credits still uses their Dreamcast models, due to said pictures being the same images used in the original Dreamcast game.
*Cream also makes cameo appearances in the same manner in the [[Sonic Adventure (2010)|2010 remaster]] of ''Sonic Adventure'' even without having the ''Sonic Adventure DX: Director's Cut'' DLC installed.
*[[Miles "Tails" Prower|Tails]], [[Knuckles the Echidna|Knuckles]], and [[E-102 Gamma]] are the only characters to feature five levels.
*In ''Sonic Adventure DX'', when Amy is captured by Zero, she is using her old Dreamcast model.
**A similar thing is found when Gamma starts his mission to save the other E-Series robots and looks back through his memories.
*Underneath the ground near the waterfall in [[Mystic Ruins (Sonic Adventure)|Mystic Ruins]], there is a row of fifteen blocks exclusive to this build of the game which cannot be seen normally in gameplay.
*There is a hidden Ring hidden behind the City Hall in [[Station Square (Sonic Adventure)|Station Square]] that is exclusive to this build of the game.
*This port of ''Sonic Adventure'' has many leftover files from the original Dreamcast version, including the title screen and the TV settings, Twinkle Circuit's additional courses and the Christmas tree from the Dreamcast's DLCs.
*Some of the Principal, Transporter, [[Chao Garden]] tracks and [[Black Market]] files from ''[[Sonic Adventure 2: Battle]]'' exist in this port.

*Inside of ''Sonic Adventure DX''{{'}}s game files, there exist some leftovers from the [[Sonic Adventure DX: Director's Cut - Demo Version|Demo version]] that were not deleted, like the logo and character select screen names.
*When ''[[Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine (8-bit)|Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine]]'' is unlocked, [[Doctor Ivo Robotnik (Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog)|Dr. Robotnik]]'s name is misspelled as "Robotonic", likely due to it being a literal translation of "Robotnik" from Japanese. Curiously, in the Mini Game Collection menu, his name is written as normal.
*This marks the first time ''[[Sonic Spinball (8-bit)|Sonic Spinball]]'' and ''Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine'' were released in Japanese territory.
**Likewise, this is the first time ''[[Sonic Drift]]'' and ''[[Tails' Skypatrol]]'' were released worldwide.
*When the game is set to Japanese, Dr. Robotnik is known as "Eggman" in the description of ''Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine''.
*When [[E-100 ZERO]] kidnaps Amy and takes her to Eggman's Egg Carrier, her Dreamcast model was used when E-100 ZERO is carring her.
