In a recent leak, we learned about a number of games set to be revealed during Sony's upcoming State of Play stream this week. One of those games was an unannounced Sonic Generations remaster. As it turns out, Sega might actually be planning something much more exciting – a new Sonic Generations game featuring both Sonic and Shadow.
According to video game researcher, Kurakasis, who has had a fairly good track record in 2023, Sega's new Sonic game is set to be titled Sonic X Shadow Generations. It may still end up being a Sonic Generations remaster, but with some fresh new levels thrown in featuring the fan favourite antagonist turned anti-hero, Shadow the Hedgehog.
Unfortunately, there is not much more substance to this rumour. No images or videos have leaked, nor have any finer details about the game. Given that this project initially leaked as a Sonic Generations remaster, I would wager that it will feature levels from the original game, alongside newly created levels to spice things up and get fans to jump back in.
Sony's State of Play stream will go live tomorrow at 10PM GMT. If these rumours hold weight, we should see the game announced during that stream.

KitGuru Says: Sonic Generations was the last game in the series that I truly fell in love with. I wouldn't be super excited for a standard remaster, but a new Generations game featuring new levels with Shadow would be a much better outcome. Hopefully all will be made clear during Sony's stream tomorrow evening.
