Sonic X Shadow Generations is a serviceable remaster of one of the franchise’s best games that includes an entirely new story mode that makes the original game’s design look worse in comparison. When the original Sonic Generations game released in 2011, its incredible music and expertly designed stages felt like a love letter to fans, new and old. While certain aspects have aged better than others in the remastered game, Sonic X Shadow Generations‘ new content should entice fans to pick up the franchise’s latest release with haste.
