Physical edition preorders also get the Gerald Robotnik's Journal collectible book, which includes in-universe details on the creation of Shadow the Hedgehog from Doctor Robotnik's (Eggman's) perspective. It's included with PS5, Nintendo Switch, and Xbox Series X preorders.

Preorder Sonic X Shadow Generations
$50
Sonic X Shadow Generations standard edition will be available in physical and digital editions. It includes the full base game on your platform of choice, plus the Sonic Adventure Legacy skin and Gerald Robotnik's Journal preorder bonuses (the book is only included with physical edition preorders).
You can preorder a physical copy on PS5, Nintendo Switch, and Xbox for $50 at Amazon and Best Buy. Though the Xbox disc will grant access to both the Series X and Xbox One versions of the game, on the PlayStation side it seems only the PS5 version is available in physical format. The preorder bonus image above does not show a PS4 case, and Best Buy does not have a listing for PS4. It would appear PS4 owners will need to opt for the digital edition, which also includes the PS5 version, should you choose to upgrade to new hardware in the future.
On top of the standard edition, there's also a $60 digital deluxe edition that includes the full game, the Sonic Legacy Skin pre-order bonus, and a collection of extra items including:
- Terios skin for Shadow
- Bonus in-game skill points
- Extra music pack
- Digital artbook
- Digital soundtrack
