Speaking to Japanese outlet Famitsu, Sonic Team's Shun Nakamura has commented on the length of Shadow Generations, the all-new campaign accompanying the remastered 2011 original. According to the producer, Shadow's story will be "about the same" length as Sonic Generations, or "maybe a little less".
In other words, Sonic X Shadow Generations will roughly double the number of hours it takes to complete compared to the original game.
"If you play both [campaigns], you can enjoy it for a long time," adds Nakamura. "In the past, only 'Sonic Generations' was released, so it's a great deal."
Sonic X Shadow Generations brings back the beloved platformer fans know and love, but implements Sonic's moody rival, Shadow, with a new story to call his own. While the Sonic Generations portion will be largely the same as what came before, the Shadow Generations campaign is new, featuring new power-ups and abilities for the black and red hedgehog.
