Before Sony officially confirmed its next State of Play for January 31st, rumors circulated about titles that could appear. Xbox Era co-founder Nick Baker teased a potential announcement relating to Sonic Generations. However, Shadow, Sonic’s rival, was also mentioned.
This pointed to a possible re-release or remaster of the title with Shadow as a new playable character. Kurakasis, who alleged that Metro Awakening is 4A Games’ next title in the series, reported that the title is likely called Sonic X Shadow Generations. Interestingly, Baker retweeted this, further hinting that it’s true.
While it sounds like a new game, it could still be a remaster or re-release. Then again, Sonic Team’s last title in the franchise was Sonic Frontiers in 2022 (it developed Sonic Superstars alongside Arzest), so a sequel isn’t out of the question.
State of Play is on January 31st at 2 PM PST. It will run for 40 minutes and features 15 titles, including Rise of the Ronin and Stellar Blade.
Regarding the Sonic game, from what I know, it is likely titled
