@@lexpendragon7935 Well we got a few trailers which said that it was captured on PC with Switch specs . What is interesting is that it runs at 60 fps and 720p
He didn’t talk about it in the video, but for those who don’t know, you can get the Japanese Collectors Edition (which comes with a statue, art book, and keychains) on Play-Asia for $90 and will come around the week of release. I think you still get the Adventure skin and you can play it in English. The only thing I don’t know is if it also includes Gerald’s notebook or the reverse-able cover so if anyone knows feel free to comment.
also there is a japanese dx version that comes with: -Sumi-e Supersonic Needle Groin "Darkness Power" Wall Scroll Tapestry -Mug -Acrylic Coaster -Acrylic Figures - 3D Crystal Set "Sonic" and "Shadow" and the dx collectors edition comes with the dx pack and the japanese collectors edition
@@SpeedZone06 Really? Cuz they sent out an email on the 4th that said this: HURRY - ONLY 2 DAYS LEFT! Pre‑order the SONIC X SHADOW GENERATIONS Collector's Edition before it's gone forever!

So like the thing about geralds journal is that there is a 99 percent chance someone is gonna do a reading on it the second it comes out, that or its getting reposted on reddit or twitter, so I just got the digital version because i want to play it early, That being said there have been imagery of book collectables in some stages and since the only Book related thing this game has is the journal, theres a none zero chance that you will be able to collect the journal pages much like Egg Memos from frontiers, which is a great choice to me to re use that concept since they were pretty cool in frontiers but lacked direction, to me atleast, the journal pages being this games version of that makes it a bit more interesting due to the nature of geralds research, but for those worried about missing lore, I wouldnt get to carried away.
No it's not. The PS exclusive includes only extended scenes for a limited time. The prologue animation episodes will be available in TH-cam like previous ones.
@@CaptainF123 I remember it being on the official Sonic x Shadow Gens website. But it must’ve been removed (it could also be on a different website). I know the animations are a timed exclusive for PS though
Another downside about the collectors edition is that it isn’t fully guaranteed that the physical copy of the game will arrive on the release date. It says on limited runs’ website that the shipping timeframe for the physical copy is between Oct 25 and Nov 8, so while it is most likely that the game will arrive on the 25th it isn’t guaranteed and if there’s any shipping issues then there’s a chance you won’t get your copy of the game until 12 days after the release, so if you’re hoping to get your copy and play it day one, just know the risk you’re taking with the collectors edition
That's why I'm buying a second copy of the game and selling the PS4 Physical Edition I'm getting from Limited Run to try and get some money back. It's VERY annoying that it isn't guaranteed.
I'm here to confirm this. I've been waiting ages and got notified that my shipping window is now Nov. 1st - Nov. 31st. The original window was Oct. 24th - Nov. 8th.
What sucks about the collector's edition is that it's the only way to get a physical copy of the the ps4 version in north America without importing the game
Im getting launch pre order collectors edition, best version is deluxe for those who want an affordable price, and most affordable for casual ones is the regular version for those who dont care
I preordered the standard physical edition so I can get Gerald Robotnik’s notebook as well as that reversible cover art(I prefer the Japanese box art way more than the one we got)
I’d love Gerald’s journal, but we don’t get stuff like that in my country. For now, I plan on pre-ordering the digital deluxe version and *hope* resellers are generous with that journal…
I've already got the digital deluxe edition on preorder so I'm not worried. October 22nd can't come fast enough. Just like most others I'm double dipping into the Sonic Generations side of things to see if it's getting more than just a glow up and an upgrade to 4K graphics with 120 fps native performance. But I'm not going to expect anything to be a major change to the game since all Sega is doing is trying to improve upon perfection. If i were to want anything from the remaster I'd choose to have new game plus and the option to replay stages with all of Sonic's friends.
On PlayAsia the physical European & Asian versions of Shadow Generations are available for purchase for PS4 among all other platforms. This can come in handy for those that want a physical copy of that version without having to pay for the Collector's Edition.
Yeah but then it's in Japanese as I bought the Collectors Edition from Japan of SONIC FRONTIERS as USA was at a REDICULOUS price so you'll just get it in their unique Symbols.
@@johnleone1996 You can get it in English if you order from Limited Run Games as they're based in the US, be quick about it though you only have a small time frame to order it.
Why in the world is the game not physical on PS4!?? Do you know how many people don't own a PS5 but own a PS4 and like to physically preserve their games and media?
@@JJDavis1118 I swear I saw it sometime in their ending trailers for a PS4 version, but I can't find it now, don't know if I'm tripping or not. but look at the bright side, at least it's still available on PS4 digitally
@@Rexicojone Yeah you're right. At least I have a way (really two ways, Switch and PS4) to play the game at all rather than not being able to play it at all.
So, I bought the Limited Run edition of the game. I’m unsure whether it comes with the deluxe edition content like the Terios skin and Movie DLC pack. I can’t find a definitive answer to this.
This was definitely a headache to figure out. In the end, I ended up going with the PS4 Limited Run, but it says that the shipping date will be *between* October 25th and November 8th, so I will ALSO be pre-ordering a physical PS5 copy because I don't trust it to come in on time, then sell the PS4 version to *maybe* get some money back. THEN I'll have to spend an extra $10 on the Deluxe Edition Upgrade anyways!
I’m more hung up on whether to buy a Switch or PS5 copy. With the switch I can take it anywhere, but with PS5 I get better graphics and a bigger incentive to play it more.
I’m a hardcore Sonic fan, I haven’t played every single game (especially those that have the most drop-dead amazing lore) but I have seen gameplay videos and videos explaining the lore and games. But anyways, I don’t think I’m getting the Limited Run games collector’s edition because by the time I could get it, it might be too late because of the limited time to preorder it. Not only that, but I feel like I’ll only preorder the regular Nintendo Switch edition, now getting the PS4 version of the collector’s box would be cool for the collection and to play; I won’t be getting it because of the price and I also don’t have a PS4 or PS5.
I'm debating on getting the physical pre-order so I can have the Gerald's Robotnik's journal. I've been a Shadow fan since SA2 and loved his first game going into his past and how he was created. This will add even more lore to my favorite character. Also, please do a Switch review of the game if possible. Would love to own something like this on my Switch Lite while on the go.
I would've bought the limited run collectors edition, if it wasn't limited run lol. Waiting an entire year after putting in $250 right away is ridiculous. I went ahead and got myself a Super Shadow collectors statue from First 4 Figures instead as my "bonus" for the game instead lol. Basically ended up costing the same, but I get everything an entire year before.
A bunch of videos went up today of the switch version. Looks like it’s pretty close to the ps5 version except for blurry shadows. And it’s capped at 30fps
One thing that I don’t see anyone mentioning is that the Limited Run Collector’s Edition doesn’t include the season pass, which will probably $10, but for $250, I believe the season pass could’ve easily been included. Hopefully, they add it in the future
To anyone wondering about Limited Run Games, they have a history of taking INCREDIBLY long to ship certain games out (I'm talking over a year), and not replacing any product that was damaged while being shipped. Their customer service is also absolutely atrocious. I don't think Sonic X Shadow Generations will have these issues since it's a high-profile game, but it's something worth knowing.
Well I already pre-ordered 2 versions of Sonic x Shadow Generations all in standard for the Switch and PS5 and as a massive Shadow the Hedgehog fan I'm playing mostly Shadow's campaign.
I got the "Day One Edition" on Switch, Physical. And yes, the game runs well on Switch and doesn't have any lag. The version I got came with the SA1 Skin (Code) and Gerald's Journal (Booklet) inside the game case, I also Upgraded to the Deluxe Edition afterwards.
I myself pre ordered the physical version and plan on buying the digital content separately, I gotta have a physical copy of a game if I can, and since I play on Switch, early access doesn't exist.
I wish game companies would just sell us a phyiscal version of the soundtrack for games without making it a limited release and/or limited to an overpriced collectors edition. Hell games like Witcher 3 and Unreal anthology just included a free soundtrack disc in the standard edition of the games. If sega knows everyone loves the music for the sonic games then just make it available to buy separately.
Okay, it may seem weird to buy a multiple times, especially a new one, but I think you can't subscribe on the SEGA newsletter multiple times to get the Jam costume on multiple multiple systems. Edit : 3:54 Also, wait, you don't get Gerald's journal with the Digital Deluxe Edition? Even with the pre-order?
This game is so exciting to me that I'm trying to get 3 versions. 1. The Normal US PS5 version that I actually preordered from the exact same GameStop I preordered the Original Game from all the way back in 2011. 2. The Japanese PS5 Collector's Edition DX Pack that I snagged a preorder from on Amazon Japan. 3. I'm gonna try to cobble together the money to get the Limited Run Games Edition on Switch. Wish me luck on the 3rd one. Lol
Im getting the digital deluxe because of the bonus content and the fact that buying it separately will be probably more expensive. (The 3 days early is not really that important but still pretty cool.)
I want to have EVERYTHING. One question, everything that comes with the preorder of the physical edition comes in the Collector's Edition as well, no? So I can preorder the Collectors and the Digital version.
So im based in the UK and preordered the collectors edition the game itself isn’t region locked HOWEVER the DLC says it’s exclusive to north America and I don’t wanna miss out on the Dreamcast skin so im going to have to buy the game TWICE!!
I'm getting a physical switch pre order. Switch is what I've got so that's the version I'll play. I like having physical games and the journal is appealing as an extra.
I’m gonna end up getting the physical standard. The reverse case and the notebook are little things, but I love what sega does with their physical games
I'm so confused. Can I get the Gerald journal just by buying a physical copy of the game anywhere like at a Walmart? Or is there somewhere special I have to get the game to get that item?
So i ordered the limited runs collectors edition, is there any hope that they will ship the collectors Edition early or do i really have to wait until July 2025
Definitely gonna pre order the physical copy and just buy the deluxe add on separately. I like buying physical editions plus the journal is a really nice pre order bonus
I got the digital deluxe for my Steam Deck, and the collectors edition for Switch (since the Steam collectors edition doesn't come with Gerald's notebook)
I'm Pre Ordering the Physical ps5 version, I don't really care for a ton of extra content at launch assuming I can purchase it later, the disc will make it so that I won't take up a ton of storage on my playstation, and I get the funny notebook
There's the japanese collectors edition as well which is worth mentioning. I bought that as well as the lrg bundle. It looks cool but the dlc won't work on japanese copies of the game, won't stop me from wasting money on sonic. Both bundles together are about the price of one knuckles chaotix.
Imma get it on the switch mainly so I can play Sonic Generations on the go,although I'm a bit worried how well Shadow Generations would run as there hasn't been any footage of the switch version. There hasn't been any footage of it in Nintendo Directs as the recent Partner Showcase would've been perfect for it since it came out the same day as the Sonic Movie 3 trailer. I know there are trailers that ran at switch specifications, but I just don't see 60fps at Shadow's campaign,even then,you'll never know.
I pre ordered both, the digital bundle for PS5 and Physical for Nintendo Switch for Geralds Diary. The real problem are the scalpers that gonna have a field day with the collector stuff.
Ive got multiple systems but I have always had this habit of keeping sega stuff on xbox. Decided to do that back when sega was making sequels to their dreamcast games for the original xbox and I just never stopped.
I ordered digital deluxe on Xbox Series X the day it was available, for midnight access, and then had to pre-order physical PS5 the day I learned of the journal… and then after learning LRG would get exclusive PS4 physical, soundtrack CD, and a Dreamcast statue to match Mania’s (launch Collector’s Edition) Genesis statue… I’ve pre-ordered it 3 times now lol thanks SEGA
going for the XBOX 1 SERIES X, since i have the sonic generations on the XBOX 360, and i am hyped for this game after seeing a couple of gamesplay, it definitely is on my wishlist.
Thank you for pointing out the PS4 version of the collectors edition. I am looking at getting one to keep sealed for a while. So do you think even at the $250 price point, this thing will go up in value?
I want the collectors edition so bad but I can't cash out $250 + cause of all the other amazing releases that are also coming out before SXSG releases. I got my copy on preorder and I can't wait to play it!
I’m kinda confused cuz it says the game may deliver on November 8th and by then all the codes will be expired (I’m talking about the collectors edition)
just to let everyone you cant upgrade you physical to have a digtial bonus in the uk eshop on switch. edit: they added the feature after the release. wouldve love to know that before getting the digital deluxe edition.
I’m debating on getting the Digital Deluxe Switch version or the Physical Switch version; I only want to buy anything for the game once (buying Deluxe so I don’t have to buy DLC later) but Gerald’s journal looks so cool…
Im so glad i watched this video😭 aslong as i get the game on time i dont mind waiting for the extras its still wack to have to wait that long but it’ll be cool to see that dreamcast statue when it finally arrives
Haven’t touched much of the Sonic series since the Gamecube era but with the return of Shadow in this game and for the 3rd film, I gotta return to show support for easily my favorite character in the franchise

1. The Normal US PS5 version that I actually preordered from the exact same GameStop I preordered the Original Game from all the way back in 2011.
2. The Japanese PS5 Collector's Edition DX Pack that I snagged a preorder from on Amazon Japan.
3. I'm gonna try to cobble together the money to get the Limited Run Games Edition on Switch.
Wish me luck on the 3rd one. Lol
4:10 this is true but if they think there's a chance they'll become a hardcore fan over time it might be a good choice
You have a really good point on the ps4 copy of the game. Will become a rare collector's item SPECIFICALLY WITH THE STEELBOOK
3:40 I really want all that stuff, but it's way too expensive
Im getting the digital deluxe because of the bonus content and the fact that buying it separately will be probably more expensive. (The 3 days early is not really that important but still pretty cool.)
I want to have EVERYTHING. One question, everything that comes with the preorder of the physical edition comes in the Collector's Edition as well, no? So I can preorder the Collectors and the Digital version.
0:08 By less than two months, by the upload date, 55 Days left.
I bought the physical edition for my Nintendo switch and when the game comes out I buy the deluxe edition so I am not worried about the 3 days early
So im based in the UK and preordered the collectors edition the game itself isn’t region locked HOWEVER the DLC says it’s exclusive to north America and I don’t wanna miss out on the Dreamcast skin so im going to have to buy the game TWICE!!
I'm getting a physical switch pre order. Switch is what I've got so that's the version I'll play. I like having physical games and the journal is appealing as an extra.
I’m gonna end up getting the physical standard. The reverse case and the notebook are little things, but I love what sega does with their physical games
From someone who has only played the 3ds version of Sonic Generations I can't wait to play the console version.
Coming from someone who has never played the original generations and is still dying to play it. This was an autobuy for the digital deluxe
I played the og years later but missed out on the Casino Night pinball minigame
I'm so confused. Can I get the Gerald journal just by buying a physical copy of the game anywhere like at a Walmart? Or is there somewhere special I have to get the game to get that item?
Yes, you should be able to get it through any major retailer
So i ordered the limited runs collectors edition, is there any hope that they will ship the collectors Edition early or do i really have to wait until July 2025
@@tylerr6618 I think we're waiting sadly
Definitely gonna pre order the physical copy and just buy the deluxe add on separately. I like buying physical editions plus the journal is a really nice pre order bonus
I honestly wished the collectors edition wasn't limited, I'm getting the digital deluxe edition but I also really want the collectors edition.
I got the digital deluxe for my Steam Deck, and the collectors edition for Switch (since the Steam collectors edition doesn't come with Gerald's notebook)
I'm Pre Ordering the Physical ps5 version, I don't really care for a ton of extra content at launch assuming I can purchase it later, the disc will make it so that I won't take up a ton of storage on my playstation, and I get the funny notebook
There's the japanese collectors edition as well which is worth mentioning. I bought that as well as the lrg bundle. It looks cool but the dlc won't work on japanese copies of the game, won't stop me from wasting money on sonic. Both bundles together are about the price of one knuckles chaotix.
Imma get it on the switch mainly so I can play Sonic Generations on the go,although I'm a bit worried how well Shadow Generations would run as there hasn't been any footage of the switch version.
There hasn't been any footage of it in Nintendo Directs as the recent Partner Showcase would've been perfect for it since it came out the same day as the Sonic Movie 3 trailer.
I know there are trailers that ran at switch specifications, but I just don't see 60fps at Shadow's campaign,even then,you'll never know.
I pre ordered both, the digital bundle for PS5 and Physical for Nintendo Switch for Geralds Diary. The real problem are the scalpers that gonna have a field day with the collector stuff.
Ive got multiple systems but I have always had this habit of keeping sega stuff on xbox. Decided to do that back when sega was making sequels to their dreamcast games for the original xbox and I just never stopped.
I ordered digital deluxe on Xbox Series X the day it was available, for midnight access, and then had to pre-order physical PS5 the day I learned of the journal… and then after learning LRG would get exclusive PS4 physical, soundtrack CD, and a Dreamcast statue to match Mania’s (launch Collector’s Edition) Genesis statue… I’ve pre-ordered it 3 times now lol thanks SEGA
going for the XBOX 1 SERIES X, since i have the sonic generations on the XBOX 360, and i am hyped for this game after seeing a couple of gamesplay, it definitely is on my wishlist.
Let’s save Mario and Sonic at the Paris Olympic Games
So if I buy the collectors edition I’m not going to get everything until next year??
@@gabrielaj2066 yepp
@@SFproductions1 wow that sucks I’m canceling my pre order now.
@@gabrielaj2066 well you still get the game itself on release it's just the statue and extra stuff that comes later
Thank you for pointing out the PS4 version of the collectors edition. I am looking at getting one to keep sealed for a while. So do you think even at the $250 price point, this thing will go up in value?
For sure.
I want the collectors edition so bad but I can't cash out $250 + cause of all the other amazing releases that are also coming out before SXSG releases. I got my copy on preorder and I can't wait to play it!
I’m kinda confused cuz it says the game may deliver on November 8th and by then all the codes will be expired (I’m talking about the collectors edition)
just to let everyone you cant upgrade you physical to have a digtial bonus in the uk eshop on switch.
edit: they added the feature after the release. wouldve love to know that before getting the digital deluxe edition.
I’m debating on getting the Digital Deluxe Switch version or the Physical Switch version; I only want to buy anything for the game once (buying Deluxe so I don’t have to buy DLC later) but Gerald’s journal looks so cool…
The Adventure Sonic skin is gonna be a mod at most a week after launch, same with Terios
DLC can not be made into mods people have tried with superstars and it always got struck down
Just asking, if I buy the collectors edition will the notebook be shipped with the game or will it be shipped with the statue in July?
With the game
Im so glad i watched this video😭 aslong as i get the game on time i dont mind waiting for the extras its still wack to have to wait that long but it’ll be cool to see that dreamcast statue when it finally arrives
Imagine if the statue was a working consel.😂
@@MasonHannon-gz4th that would make it worth the price tag for sure😂
Haven’t touched much of the Sonic series since the Gamecube era but with the return of Shadow in this game and for the 3rd film, I gotta return to show support for easily my favorite character in the franchise
I’m already planning on getting the Digital Deluxe Edition for my PS5. I’m making sure my money’s saved for that day to come.
I didn't know that thing about the PS4 version. thanks!
