@@Blockaleno67 Do you mean the PlayStation state of play trailer? Because it says “update is based on scenes from the movie”, it doesn’t use the word stage or stages. The old digital deluxe graphics say “additional stage” and PR given to Nintendo Life says “a unique level inspired by the new movie”. I’d love to be wrong, but I’ve only seen official sources refer to it as “stage” or “level”.
I feel like Silver makes the most sense, he was just kinda there in the original Generation. Besides, my boy needs his Ian Flynn rewrite from IDW asap in a game.
You know they already confirmed that there will be more years for other characters? Also having silver in the game alongside shadow defeats the purpose of the year and the name of their projects for this year.
Its Emerl, cause its what they showed at the dark beginnings prologue. So it only makes sense, plus the way emerl plays a part in shadow's story, it might be like a hero/villain kinda thing
Maybe it just classic shadow and there was some image of him and everything cannon and it conform to have another character of the Japanese website and the cover that has shadow standing on a block and sonic in shadow on the side but behind shadow is a block
How is nobody saying Rouge?? Shadow was playing in the Kingdom Valley stage in the trailer, and in Sonic 06, he plays through that stage alongside ROUGE! On top of that, she has one of the closest connections to Shadow and has been with him since SA2, I really want it to be Rouge.
Given that she plays exactly like Knuckles in 3D, it's not like they'd need to put much work into making her playable in 2D. Ooooor they could make all her levels fully 3D collectathons But anyways it's too jarring for me to see Shadow and Rouge without Omega
I feel like it could be metal, as he's the only sonic character I remember (other than eggman) that is there during the classics. Plus, it would be interesting to play as him for once
He must make an appearance since it's unfair how him and Big skipped Generation even though they're a part of main roster. Especially since he was the second most fun to play as after Shadow in 06.
Silver makes the most sense? Why? Sonic is next to Classic Sonic. Shadow being next to Silver, I don't know. Plus, what levels would be remade for Silver? Isn't there just 06?
New theory based on the recent artwork: I think the Fourth Character is going to be Shadow, but redesigned with the Doom Powers make up his entire form, not just tacked on wings.
I feel like they're just gonna have a part where sonic and Shadow's stories cross and just let you play as sonic yet again. They really should do Silver though, that would be sick af
Silver, since he’s in the main Sonic Genrations campaign but isn’t explained where he comes from, since he shows up in the cutscene before the Time Eater boss
@@Cray2legends There really isn't. Shadow is technically immortal. He doesn't age. Plus, he was designed to be at around modern Sonic's age when he was created.
I think mostly Silver because if rewatch Sonic generation cutscene when his friends celebrate his birthday will notice Shadow and Silver were not participate the party . Mostly they were also caught by time monster to included inside time world
I guess that Silver because in Rival Stage is not only Shadow but Silver too so maybe Silver will be in future update because in Time Eater Boss Fight cutscene there was Silver with Cream and Blaze
Before the game came out I thought it would of been Classic Shadow, but not like Classic Sonic, more so, Classic Shadow is based on Shadow during SA2 with the adventure era moveset
If you want me to be crazy, one option is probably me insane 1. Omega cause he has not been seen once throughout generations for some reason 2. Emerl considering he got revealed just recently 3. Maria but with a puzzle based style gameplay rather than platforming. This is more basing on the idea of frontiers having sorta puzzle based stuff but imaging this game going full force with it
I think it'll just be Movie Shadow, as he was announced in one of the recent trailers. I thought it would have been Emerl the Gizoid, but I couldn't feel more disappointed by the lost prospect.
Staying lore accurate: Any other character Being happy: Classic shadow Edit: Now that i'm thinking about it, the new character could be Silver...It makes sense right?
Classic Shadow makes no sense because Shadow has always looked the way we’ve seen him. Classic Sonic is just a younger Sonic. Shadow was created as a permanently matured hedgehog.
Well it's red so we need a red character to match the aesthetic so we have Knuckles and Omega, which could be very likely considering the history between Omega and Shadow
I actually think that, with the animated trailer showing Emerl on the Ark, we might get him as an unlockable, possibly to act as the "classic shadow but not shadow" means of playing classic/2D levels with a somewhat more modern, but still fairly classic character
Rouge or Omega I feel would make a lot of sense given their relationship with Shadow. However, it probably is just Emerl given the sudden focus on him again in recent trailers
It’s obviously Movie Shadow, he was first introduced during the actual announcement during the latest State of Play on PlayStation’s youtube channel as a exclusive content to the Digital Deluxe version for 10 dollars more releasing December 12th, and Movie Shadow was fire, along with the Tokyo Scramble level from the Sonic the Hedgehog 3 movie, it has to be, literally everyone knows it’s gotta be Movie Shadow that’s going to fill that empty spot, he’s playable. Of course it has to be him.

This does make sense
Please no idw rewrite
Eeeehhhhhh naaaaahhh I'm sorry my bro don't give him the idw rewrite
Naw. Leaving Silver out will leave room for a Sonic X Shadow X Silver Generations
Yes
For those still guessing, there is no extra playable characters. The website shows the additional characters as Maria, Gereld and Doom.
😂😂😂😂
na im guessing its for movie shadow
Or maybe Shadows beta design.
What? I’m so confused!! They aren’t even playable???

This game looks like a forces sequel idk why
Honestly for some reason, this is the one I believe the most
It’s going to be the movie version of shadow 😂 from the DLC probably
the skins are a completley different thing tho
Batman Shadow DLC💀😭
@@NotLuck.you sure it’s the skin?
@@SmoodGraphics59 if we got Modern Sonic with Classic Sonic, then we should got Modern Shadow with Movie Shadow

I hope it’s Silver cause we know that they aren’t going to give him the “Year of Silver” 😔😔😔
Ma man!! Silver MOST return
You know they already confirmed that there will be more years for other characters? Also having silver in the game alongside shadow defeats the purpose of the year and the name of their projects for this year.

Bring my precious robo boi back to me sega T-T
it's definitely gonna be Emeryl, I'm calling it!
@@CKLNstudiosmaybe it omega
Emerl's CANON???
@@toch19 yeah sonic battles is cannon
It’s Classic Sonic in the Shadow costume like in Sonic Superstars or whatever. Calling it now.

For twice if you count SA2 Battle mode
my thoughts exactly!
@kool9927042113 for thrice if you count sonic 4. Wich I sure don't count
In a single player campaign for a game that is actually good.
@@kool9927042113 Three times if you count * cough cough * Sonic 4 Episode 2...
He will be the Shadow of the film included with the DLC released on December 12th, dedicated to the third film. Nothing we didn't already know.
Omega is the one that fits the most considering shadows campaign and gameplay
He must make an appearance since it's unfair how him and Big skipped Generation even though they're a part of main roster.
Especially since he was the second most fun to play as after Shadow in 06.
I'm hoping for omega, but I could also see rouge as the playable character
Omega was spotted in the background of the new trailer as well, I'm vouching for this to be Omega
It's definitely Sonic Man from Sonic 06, you cant have Sonic Generations and forget the best Sonic
No point of that
No
You're trolling, right?
Right?
Wow, these replies. 💀
Seems like Sonic fans just learned what a joke is
It already been confirmed movie shadow is the skin and he’s voiced by Keanu
Silver: can that be me
Sega: get back in the dungeon
It’s Antonio from Sonic 06
ANTONIO?!
ANTONIOOOO!!! 🔥
Sonic 06 was trash, and I didn't even play it. I just saw the ratings. 🤮
@@TheInfernoKid-qc6un never know until you try
SONICMAN

There’s sonic rivals but no one remembers that game
He was technically in forces
Also, shadow clearly has levels inspired by frontiers, so there's no reason silver couldn't have stages pulled from elsewhere
Without the generations.
@@SPG69no one races to win 😞
Either Silver or Amy would be cool, Both of the other Hedgehogs need a decent amount of game development

Probably Emerl
:D

Up
Why him?
@@TheSantiagoOne cause he's in the shadow animation's teaser

Man, our secret character is: Waluigi finally a character with respect

The most sensible thing Ive seen tbh.
Bro Silver is in future, Shadow is in past.
I just realized we never really got an answer for this.
Probably Movie Shadow i think
The website just added all the characters, it’s non playable characters
I think it's Doom Wing Shadow since you change modes like you switch between the two Sonics in the stage select screen.
Finally Some one noticed
Its Terios
A surprise new character altogether that no one’s expecting!
Emerl
Silver, since he’s in the main Sonic Genrations campaign but isn’t explained where he comes from, since he shows up in the cutscene before the Time Eater boss
Makes sense , only three of them were special with able chaos control and transformed super forms
It's the Keanu Reeves movie Shadow, since there will be a Sonic the Hedgehog movie 3 level.
it was definitely the Movie Shadow DLC they just introduced
I hope not “classic” shadow 😢
There's no such thing as Classic Shadow
@@shadic4566or is there “dun dun dun!”
@@Cray2legends There really isn't. Shadow is technically immortal. He doesn't age. Plus, he was designed to be at around modern Sonic's age when he was created.
I would hope for Blaze
@@randallgilbert2163 Blaze isn't playable as she's just one of the people Sonic saves.
I really hope it could be like a classic shadow
Even though classic Classic never existed
It’s probably him in his Shadow the hedgehog jacket from the 2008 game
I’m pretty sure it will just be the movie shadow dlc pack
One of the mystery characters could be one of those three Rouge, Metal Sonic, or Silver
It’s Keanu Shadow
Imagine its just sonic adventure 2 in its entirety:
Whats your favorite character?
Sa2.
“Classic Shadow, but it’s his polygon form from his first game”
Shrek. Let’s resurrect those weird memes from 10 years ago
I think mostly Silver because if rewatch Sonic generation cutscene when his friends celebrate his birthday will notice Shadow and Silver were not participate the party . Mostly they were also caught by time monster to included inside time world
I guess that Silver because in Rival Stage is not only Shadow but Silver too so maybe Silver will be in future update because in Time Eater Boss Fight cutscene there was Silver with Cream and Blaze
Probably emerl but I really want to see metal sonic as a skin or his own character
It needs to be Ian Jr
YES!
Underrated comment
who?
Before the game came out I thought it would of been Classic Shadow, but not like Classic Sonic, more so, Classic Shadow is based on Shadow during SA2 with the adventure era moveset
Judging by the apperance in the sneak peek of dark beginnings…..
Im predicting its emerl.
Adventure Shadow with adventure mechanics 🥵

@@noahlewis3768 so what happened to the shadow in sonic heroes??
@@TerraKava it’s the same shadow, every shadow is the same shadow except the one in sonic boom
It’s gonna be Maria, as soon as you go into the one Maria level, she gets shot and dies.

Maria's style is close to like the Spider Man 2 MJ segments
Knuckles, but I could see it being silver.
It might be a bonus story mode just like in Sonic Frontiers.

🗿🍷 very op character
Voice actor change in the middle of the game
“What happened to the voice i was doing before?”
“Is that my inner monologue?”
You can play now as Silver!
Are you sure ?

(Maybe in a kinder timeline)
Sonic X Shadow Generations: Silver Edition
There was no other character 💔

No
Well it's red so we need a red character to match the aesthetic so we have Knuckles and Omega, which could be very likely considering the history between Omega and Shadow

Yeaaaah...

Classic Shadow like his Sonic Adventure 2 design in 3D
Mephiles!?!?
I should have guessed!
Memphis tennese
Will they give us the "death beam that killed Sonic" as a move?
I doubt it but that would be hilarious
Tbh there's probably no other character that would be connected to Shadow as much as Mephiles.
Sonic, Shadow, and Silver are the absolute rawest trio in mascot history. Not just gaming history.
Can't wait to play as the gun that shot Maria
I'm guessing Emerl since he's in the animated trailer, and he can move like Shadow.
Here after the game released still don’t know who the mystery character was unfortunately 😢
The one you pay for
Be Like Everyone Else: Some other existing character related to Shadow
Be Happy: You can now play as Luigi
It might be something along the lines of maybe some side missions where you play as another character. Maybe like a BIG FISHING MINI GAME-
bro the character would probably be either a classic version of shadow omega or rouge
MARIA! or ROUGE!
Maybe Omega!
Why the fnck would Maria be playable
@@The_Metal_Hedgehog Idk, interesting thought lmao
Bc ten seconds of gameplay
This takes place before shadows fight with sonic in the main game so no.
Is it movie shadow?
Terios would make PERFECT sense
being able to play black doom In his starfish looking form would be kind of sick
The new playable is Cream The Rabbit! 🐰
*insert get out meme here*
It’s his movie character version for Sonic 3
Yet the website hasn’t been updated to reflect this
Why isn’t anyone saying Metal Sonic? He was the anti-Sonic from the classic era.
‘Cuz Shadow will already fight Metal Overlord, so having one of the bosses also be a playable character feels kinda weird.
Maria!!!
5yo me: classic shadow!
Me now: classic sonic in a shadow suit
It gonna be black doom
I think the same
It’s actually Terios
Aw, cool, it's nice that we got to play as Shadow's trauma
Movie shadow
Eclipse the darkling would be cool
Imagine if it's Mephiles teaming up with Shadow after you beat him up
the website was updated to show black doom maria and gerald, there is no bonus playable character
Most likely, it's a slot for the expansion where Keanu Reeves voices Shadow for the upcoming Sonic 3 movie levels.
It’s obviously Movie Shadow, he was first introduced during the actual announcement during the latest State of Play on PlayStation’s youtube channel as a exclusive content to the Digital Deluxe version for 10 dollars more releasing December 12th, and Movie Shadow was fire, along with the Tokyo Scramble level from the Sonic the Hedgehog 3 movie, it has to be, literally everyone knows it’s gotta be Movie Shadow that’s going to fill that empty spot, he’s playable. Of course it has to be him.
Classic Sonic in shadow suite or Metal Sonic
It’s clearly gonna be “Movie Shadow” more than anything.
You can now play as movie shadow
But in only 1 DLC level
It’s obviously Keanu Reeves Shadow
Most likely a movie Shadow version from Sonic 3
I hope it's a,"Now you can play as Classic Shadow!!" Moment
I want it to be Silver so badly, but realistically it’s probably gonna be Omega or Emeral.
