Sonic X Shadow Generations Reveals New Pre-Order Bonus

As a long-time fan of the Sonic the Hedgehog series, I couldn’t be more thrilled about the upcoming release of Sonic X Shadow Generations. The combination of a remastered Sonic Generations with a new Shadow campaign has already gotten me hyped up, but the latest announcement regarding physical pre-orders and their reversible covers has taken my excitement to an all-time high!


Fans who pre-order the Sonic X Shadow Generations game physically will now receive a cover that can be reversed. This highly anticipated addition to the Sonic series brings back the remastered version of Sonic Generations, featuring Shadow the Hedgehog as a playable character in an extra campaign. The excitement surrounding Shadow’s inclusion has grown, as he battles his arch-nemesis, Black Doom, and revisits levels from his past adventures.

As a long-time fan of Sonic the Hedgehog, I’m absolutely thrilled about the upcoming release of “Sonic X Shadow Generations.” Having grown up playing the classic Sonic games, I can’t help but feel nostalgic at the thought of diving into this new adventure. And with all the exciting pre-order bonuses being offered, it seems like my childhood dream is coming true!

As a dedicated gamer, I’m always excited to learn about behind-the-scenes updates on my favorite games. Recently, the official Sonic the Hedgehog Twitter account announced some exciting news for us fans! According to them, the decision to include a reversible cover was in response to our feedback. The original North American box art received criticism for being rather plain and uninspiring.

Sonic X Shadow Generations’ Reversible Box Art Cover Was Due to Fan Feedback

Katie Chrzanowski, the social media manager for Sonic the Hedgehog, expressed her team’s openness to fan feedback regarding the new pre-order bonus. She acknowledged that constructive criticism can be motivating, but it’s important to strike a balance between inspiring and demoralizing comments. On Twitter, fans praised Chrzanowski for providing an alternative box art option and commended her commitment to engaging with the Sonic community online.
