Sonic Dream Team gets new Shadow Levels update, out now

Sonic Dream Team is rolling out a major new update that adds more levels for the fan-favorite Shadow the Hedgehog. This exciting update arrives just in time for the weekend, bringing a host of new features to enhance your gaming experience.

The update introduces three new stages and a new mission type to the Adventure mode, all centered around the beloved character, Shadow. Since his introduction in December last year, this update aims to further develop his mechanics and playability within Sonic Dream Team.

In addition to new levels, the update includes a variety of new interactable objects such as trampolines, phased platforms, and tightrope springs. These additions promise to add more depth and excitement to your gameplay. So, gear up and use your Chaos Shift to cleanse the Dream of corruption and eradicate the growing Nightmares.

Shadow's resurgence in popularity, partly fueled by Keanu Reeves voicing the character, has been notable. Since Sega's acquisition of Rovio in 2023, their mobile game offerings have seen significant growth. While Sonic Dream Team predates this acquisition, its success has undoubtedly influenced subsequent game launches.

Looking ahead, the upcoming Sonic Rumble, a battle royale-style multiplayer game, marks a departure from the classic Sonic gameplay that Sonic Dream Team emulates. Whether this bold new direction will be a hit or a miss remains to be seen, but it's certainly on the radar for many fans.
