Sonic X Shadow Generations Preorders Get a Big Discount for Steam

ign.com:

There's a big summer sale ongoing at PC gaming retailer Fanatical right now, and they've got one of the best deals going for Sonic fans going into the later parts of the year. Sonic X Shadow Generations is discounted for PC today, with both the Deluxe and Standard edition getting significant limited-time price drops. It's huge news for Sonic fans who are looking to pick up the game on Steam.

Here's the deal. Sonic X Shadow Generations Digital Deluxe Edition is now $52.19 / £47.84. This includes the Base Game, Digital Deluxe Season Pass, an additional character skin and level for Shadow (releasing Holiday 2024), Terios Skin, Extra BGM Pack, Digital Art Book + Soundtrack, and Skill Points (Sonic Generations).

But most notably the Deluxe Edition is how you play the upcoming game three days early. If you've been paying attention you would know that SEGA is pulling the whole early access card with the game. It's tied to the Deluxe Edition, and we've run over all the details in our preorder guide as well.

But, if you're not fussed and happy to play the game on October 24 instead, then the standard edition is also down to $43.39 from $49.99. It's another great deal, and well worth considering going into release for PC users. Preordering Sonic X Shadow Generations will also grant you a bonus Sonic Adventure Legacy Skin, and Geral Robotnik's Journal Detailing Shadow's Creation.

But that's not all, SEGA is a massive part of the Fanatical summer sale, and fellow Sonic games like Sonic Superstars ($21.29) and Sonic Frontiers ($22.39) are also on sale. This is alongside other big SEGA games like Persona 3 Reload, Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance, Metaphor: ReFantazio preorders, and more.
