Sega is celebrating Shadow in a big way in 2024.
2024 is looking like a very big year for Shadow the Hedgehog. The character is slated to appear in Paramount's Sonic the Hedgehog 3, and will also co-star in the upcoming video game Sonic x Shadow Generations. Sega plans on celebrating the character in a very big way this year, so much so that they're starting a fan celebration campaign that they're calling"Fearless: Year of Shadow.
— Sonic the Hedgehog April 9, 2024 Shadow Dark Rider TourIn addition to the already announced events, Sega revealed that it has recreated Shadow's iconic Dark Rider motorcycle. The custom-made motorcycle features a sleek black and red color scheme, and it will be going on tour this year. So far, just one stop on the tour has been announced, but it's coming up this weekend! Sonic fans can check out the cycle at the MotoGP Red Bull Grand Prix of the Americas in Austin, Texas.
Sonic x Shadow: Generations Announced earlier this year, Sonic x Shadow Generations is an upcoming remake of the 2011 video game, Sonic Generations. The game does not have a set release date, but will appear this autumn on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, and PC. While Shadow was not a playable character in the original game, he will star in a brand-new campaign exclusive to Sonic x Shadow Generations.
The original Sonic Generations is often considered one of the very best Sonic video games ever, so it seems like a fitting release for the Year of Shadow! It remains to be seen whether the new content will be as enjoyable as the 2011 game, but at the very least, it should give a new generation a chance to see why it's so well-regarded. An autumn release also means the game should be arriving just a little ahead of Sonic the Hedgehog 3, which has a theatrical release date of December 20th.
