Game outlets have released reviews for Sonic X Shadow Generations four days ahead of its release. The game's average score on Metacritic stands at 80 out of 100, based on 52 reviews.

Reviewers are thrilled with Shadow Generations, the new story campaign featuring Shadow. According to the journalists, the game excels in all major aspects, particularly in level design. It has turned out much better than the previous Sonic Frontiers, so Sonic fans are sure to be pleased. The new content is a main selling point of the game, so players should have a great time.

Unfortunately, there were significant criticisms regarding the remaster of Sonic Generations. Some journalists believe the game could have had more changes, so it feels more like a modern game. Just doing a remaster isn't enough for this part to feel fresh.

Sonic X Shadow Generations is set to release on October 25, 2024 on all the major gaming platforms including both current and past generations. The remaster of the classic Generations includes an entirely new story campaign featuring Shadow, with events taking place parallel to the original game.
