It's really crept up on us, but Sonic X Shadow Generations officially arrives on Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S this Friday! As a result, we've got some early reviews to share with you, and they're looking pretty good so far.
FYI, we had been planning for ages to review this one, and it's still something we intend to do, but for whatever reason we haven't been able to acquire code from SEGA yet. You'll see our review here at Pure Xbox eventually, but it's most likely going to be post-launch - so we'll have to make-do with this roundup for now.
Let's go for it then, shall we? Here's what some reviews are saying about the new Sonic game so far:
IGN (9/10)
"Sonic X Shadow Generations takes an already excellent game and spring jumps it to new heights at a blistering pace by doubling up the campaign length with creative level design, fantastic bosses, plenty of collectibles, and an appreciable graphical upgrade."
CGM (8.5/10)
"As far as remasters go, with two full campaigns, a laundry list of unlockables, distinct gameplay styles and fan service galore, it’s hard not to recommend Sonic X Shadow Generations to fans of the franchise."
Push Square (8/10)
"Sonic X Shadow Generations is a great two-for-one deal, but for us, the antihero's half of the package steals the show. While the remaster of the 13-year-old platformer is perfectly fine, Shadow's brand new campaign outshines it with much improved gameplay and level design."
