Sonic X Shadow Generations (PS5)

Sonic X Shadow generations is a remaster featuring a new story/campaign. If you want to re-enjoy Sonic Generations on your current console it is definitely worth a buy. If you can tolerate some slight censorship on the cutscenes and dialog. The Shadow Story in this game is all new, featuring similar gameplay to Sonic Generatons. While the story for the Shadow Campaign was solid, and the bonus features were a good celebration of the character and past games, the short campaign and few levels make it feel rushed and simple. Sonic Generations is like the best hits for the franchise, Shadow is more along the lines of hey remember this. There are some solid levels, and good bosses, the final level was terrible, and the final boss was annoying. On the plus side the trials before each boss were much better than the ones in Sonic Generations. There is decent replayability, in trying to get collectibles and get S rank on every level and boss. My conclusion is that the Shadow campaign was a disappointment. Fair warning, at the time of writing this review, the DLC that comes with the physical copy codes do not work. SEGA says they are going to fix it, but the game has been out for over a week and I have heard of no fix. Also for the dlc skins that do work I have yet to find in game.
