Original story: Sega's latest Sonic Central has shared all sorts of updates, including a look at the story in the upcoming Sonic X Shadow Generations. However, it doesn't end there, with Sony's 'State of Play' stream sharing a bit more information.
In case you missed it, Sega announced that special Sonic 3 movie content will be available later this year December 12, 2024. First of all, Keanu Reeves will appear in a special update voicing the Shadow. This 'Sonic the Hedgehog 3 Movie Pack' is inspired by scenes from the third live-action film.
This same 'Movie Pack' is included in the digital deluxe edition of the game, and the game is scheduled to be released on October 25th. Here's a little more about this special movie package from PR:
“On December 12, St SONIC X SHADOW GENERATION Digital Deluxe owners can take on a new look as Shadow and play through a unique level inspired by the new movie, Sonic the Hedgehog 3, voiced by Keanu Reeves.”
Sonic series producer Shun Nakamura also shared some insight on the PlayStation Blog:
“This content will not have a story that per se relates directly to the film. Instead, as you can see in the trailer, it will be set in Tokyo, where Shadow visits in the film.”
