I think a lot of people are gonna hate the remix due to it being EDM-ish.... Luckily I like good EDM so for me this remix SLAPS! I especially love the intro and how as soon as the opening ends, westopolis starts.
3:55 I love how Game Shadow saves a GUN Soldier from the helicopter, showing he does care for GUN (even though he is from a different dimension). Unlike Movie Shadow, who straight-up kill GUN Soldiers.
I mean, it helps that Game Shadow has already gone through a significant chunk of character development, whereas Movie Shadow is probably closer to how Game Shadow was during the events of SA2.
Feels like we are really in a Sonic Renaissance. They need to include Shadow in the next mainline game. With level design like this for both Sonic and Shadow. Really feels like Sonic Team have their mojo back.
I have to agree but it’s really pathetic that it took them this long to get back to this point after we had games with higher quality like unleashed which was 2008.
@@yougoglencoco08They should basically make the next game design wise off of shadow gens. An open zone area ( or multiple areas like sonic adventure 1) to get to levels and the levels being this high quality. It would perfect.
That victory animation was fucking insane, no all of this was fucking insane, this is getting me excited of how bombastic the animation for Frontiers 2 will be.
Could you imagen playing through the whole Shadow Generations game as Movie Shadow and Keanu voices every cutscene from start to end? Bro I would freak out so Hard and cry even harder at the ending.
Seeing it next Saturday with my cousin and 6 friends. Just gonna be the 8 of us dudes taking up an entire row at the movies to see it together and get some food and drinks afterwards to celebrate.
This DLC just proves how good Keanu Reeves is as Shadow. Fun Fact, In order to prepare to play as Shadow for the Sonic 3 movie, Keanu actually did research on Shadow to make sure he was going to play the character correctly. He truly is and Icon and just hearing his dialogue as Shadow in this DLC has me hyped for the Movie more then I already was.
Yeah NGL, the delivery of his lines could have used more work. It just came off a bit flat and bored, like he was just reading off the script instead of actually playing the character.
Contextually, this is more of a case where Shadow is temporarily isekaied into the film universe, but he’s still the game-verse version. So, considering that, it makes sense to sound different from the actual film universe version.
This is so cool! The Shadow movie model, the stage, the music, Keanu Reeves' voice, the cutscenes with a cinematic and epic vibe! He looks amazing in every part and every shot! Mod guys, you know what to do! Bring this awesomeness to the whole game
@loalfhlfhul4928 alil,but blaze's universe is called a dimension,and so is this,oh I forgot to say,but boom was also considered a different dimension too (not stated in the games but by the creators)
idk why everyone’s been saying this tbh😭😭 If anything, I think they made sure it fits with the canon, with the ring “anomaly” as the map said, shadow acknowledging the changes, and the ending cutscene where he said he’d return they didn’t need to do all that for one stage but they did and it’s sick
Not to mention he said that he will be back once he completed his mission but I don't think so because we all seen what happens after he completed his mission.
Only thing better than Keanu voicing Shadow in this would be Andrew Rannells returning to voice the low-ranking GUN soldiers to really bring back the Shadow the Hedgehog vibes.
@@nazomius7033well there’s more content than this for those 10 dollars. I agree though it was very short & left me wanting more. Hopefully a season pass does mean an actual season. I’m not sure if they’ll give us anything though since just this content is 5-6 dollars.
Funny how Sunset Heights from FORCES had one quick 4 second cutscene with the death egg robots or an extra 8 seconds if you count the doom part while this level has a 40 second long unplayable cutscene sequence (3:24 - 4:04)
Gotta be honest, this isn't selling me on Keanu as Shadow. Like I know this is probably a more phoned in assignment, since it's only a handful of lines, but come on man, that "Chaos Control" was... ehh. Aside from that, really cool level. And we actually got a Westopolis remix to boot! I'll take what I can get.
In his defense, there is a difference between doing vocalizations (grunting for attacks, that sort of thing) and cinematic dialogue. Only a few VAs can convincingly do both, most are good at one or the other. Ben Schwartz is the same for Movie Sonic; a good voice for dialogue, kinda wonky with vocalizations.
@@K2niarDneKHe's gonna have to grunt/make noises that aren't talking for the movie as well. Also it's not the grunts in the dlc that have a lack of effort, I think Keanu grunts just fine honestly. This is at best a sidestep instead of a defense.
I feel Like Keanu could've done better. I feel like in the places where he should be yelling he is just talking. I still Love how we jave Keanu Reeves in a sonic game.
The level of detail on the DLC stages makes me think we'll get games with levels as masterfully composed as Unleashed with the incredible graphics of Forces, which imo is a mix made in heaven
People are overlooking that there are multiple dimensions with exactly the same characters. The movie canon is canon to the Sonic multiverse and Modern and Classic Sonic timeline. Classic Sonic’s timeline merged with Modern Sonic’s on his 16th birthday and couldn’t speak because it means overwriting Modern Sonic’s timeline that is just begun learning the origins behind of the Chaos Emeralds and Master Emerald that Classic Sonic got to know in his timeline already. But Shadow is a massive piece of the Modern Sonic puzzle that could piece why he is named Shadow the Hedgehog and even the life that came before Shadow that we see in a skin, Terios. Shadow was not originally from Modern Sonic’s timeline. And that is why there is no Classic Shadow.
2:14 SHADOW, listen to me… When you use the word “the” in a sentence, the pronunciation is dependent on whether the subsequent word begins with a vowel or a consonant. Therefore it is in this case pronounced “Thee earth”. (TLDR: You sound five Keanu).
Now that we finally got the Westopolis (Shadow Generations Remix) finally used for the DLC, we still need the official lyrics’ vocal version of the Supporting Me - Biolizard Boss Battle OST (Shadow Generation Remix) to be used for the DLC’s next time ways regarding a potential Act 2 and/or a potential Boss Battle
The fact they actually got Keanu Reeves to voice Shadow in the game too is freaking awesome!
Fr
He deserves to get a Oscar for voicing shadow
Such a not so bad year 😂🎉honestly not a bad way to celebrate the end of this year
They probably just had him do these lines while recording voiceover for Sonic 3 lol
He sounds bored as shit though

You jumped out of a Gun Helicopter, there's nothing to talk
well also this isn't the mind of Shadow from movies so this one is allied with Sonic.
In Dark Beginnings, he saves a GUN Soldier when he and Team Dark were raiding a base for a rocket to The Ark.
Don't forget game Shadow also killed GUN soldiers in his game
its kind of insane how much they're cooking. Welcome back Sonic Team.

Polish, sure, but the level design in this DLC isn't very good. The base Shadow Gens is passable which is unfortunately rare for modern Sonic games.

“Perfect.”
Hearing Keanu saying Chaos Control is crazy 😮😮😮
Just wait till we hear him say it in the movie.
@SuperSonicWarrior93 That would be Awesome lol
Ngl his chaos control was weak here. Hopefully it's much better in the movie.
He says it twice, once whenever chaos control is used in gameplay (obviously) and in the ending cutscene for the level
He’s getting older I can’t blame him
I hear you Westopolis
I know it’s just me huffing copium, but Shadow saying he’ll be back really makes me hope that we’ll get more levels after the movie comes out.
I don’t think that’s too far fetched. The fact that the level is still called Act 1 makes me think there’s going to be an act 2
i think him saying ‘i’ll be back’ meant the challenge stages
man if they're all gonna be like this i sure as hell hope not
This thing was going to be called act 1 whether there was going to be another act or not. It's the game's default@@prime7213
A Season pass implies several upcoming dlcs
WESTOPOLIS MUSIC???????? im counting this as the westopolis stage
lol kinda wish it had its own track though & a act 2 even if it was solely 2D
If only the skin was playable the whole game
Just wait, we'll have a mod for it soon.
Mods will do that for you
“Mods” except not everyone is playing this on PC nor does everyone has a PC capable of running this game.

Ngl, the DLC is fun, but I'm a little disappointed that there's not much content
Same. A quick burst of phenomenal excitement but I was hoping for two acts and at least being able to play with the movie skin in all Shadow stages 😩
The truth is that the DLC is very short. I would have liked them to have made it like in Final Horizon that it had 2 or 3 more worlds.
Yeah, definitely not worth the $10
Hopefully they capitalize on this success and making more level DLC for shadow and maybe sonic if they can
@@nazomius7033well there’s more content than this for those 10 dollars. I agree though it was very short & left me wanting more.
Hopefully a season pass does mean an actual season. I’m not sure if they’ll give us anything though since just this content is 5-6 dollars.
Welp. it’s not exactly Westopolis. But it’ll do.
Already played, it’s really cool!!
how were you able to play it? i installed the DLC and keep restarting my game but i cant access it
You need to beat it fully @@jgrimofficial
@ You need to complete space colony ark act 1, and then find a portal on the hub

"You're almost out of rings! Switch places with me!"
*proceeds to yeet G.U.N. Soldier out of helicopter*
YO THAT WAS WESTOPOLIS IN THE OST?!?!?!?!
5:33 he's aura farming and I love it
After Cyberpunk 2077, Keanu did it again big time!
The money Sega earned from the movies and frontiers is CLEARLY being used wisely to make Sonic Games more polished and cinematic, cause HOLY FUCK.
HE SAID HE'LL BE BACK!!! MORE DLC MAY BE COMING AAAAAAA
He's referring to the challenge acts and Movie releasing soon.
This is absolute perfection!
You've said it
4:48
Shadow: Missile? Feh-too slow-
Sonic: HEY!!!!! THAT MY LINE!!!!!!!
That Victory Animation was nuts, the most innovative I've ever seen out of the entire franchise, not even joking
6:07 Hover Boost haters in shambles rn lol
I thought this part was really cool, as was the victory screen, it was stylish from start to finish
Fr bro, Unfortunately it's going to look weird when I install a mod that removes it
The skate boosting looks really goofy and only works in that one cutscene before he fights Sonic.
GOOD! Hover Boost is awesome
@Stroutta-oh7mj makes more sense, tho
3:25 giving me forces vibes
me too they atleast could've made it an area where you have to use chaos control😅
still badass though
In a good way or bad way?
In a good way tho, this was one of the salvable stuff about Forces, the train in Spaceport 🔥
If you mean the not playing then yes
But in sheer badassery. Nahh this shit solos All of forces No question
Funny how Sunset Heights from FORCES had one quick 4 second cutscene with the death egg robots or an extra 8 seconds if you count the doom part while this level has a 40 second long unplayable cutscene sequence (3:24 - 4:04)
A little underwhelming, I was expecting 2 Acts and maybe a Boss. It reminds me of Episode Shadow, just comes and goes lol.
I heard Keanu Reeves say chaos control my life is complete
9:44 EEK, that was close
I really hope after the movie you unlock ANOTHER level because I a kinda disappointed to not have 2 levels

Keanu definitely sounds much better in the Movie trailers and clips. I guess he wasn’t given good voice direction for this.

This Is Really Cool Movie Shadow DLC
I thought it would have more Acts, like Act 1, 2, and 3 with all 3 of them having 3 Challenges to Complete in each Act.
2:00 westopolis is back (particularly)
that part where shadow was giving the GUN pilot an escape is probs a reference to dark beginnings episode 3.
GUN is just an "obstacle in my way".
Curious how he talks about how Maria describes Earth, but this shadow was already on Earth
The level of detail on the DLC stages makes me think we'll get games with levels as masterfully composed as Unleashed with the incredible graphics of Forces, which imo is a mix made in heaven
It's so refreshing to finally get to see a 100% original level after such a long time
4:47 Shadow: "missiles? Feh - too slow!" the timing couldn't be more perfectly hilarious😂
Man this level is CRAZY GOOD with so much branching pass and wall run i am amazed !
If you are amazed by this you need better standards. The base game is so much better
@2Namii you are just a hater. Saying it's Amazing doesn't mean the bass game is worse. I love the game. And the DLC level was very good !
This is fricken awesome & Keanu Reeves is breathtaking!
Therapist: Photorealistic Shadow can't hurt you, he isn't real.
Photorealistic Shadow:
They really putting in effort for shadow this year
Makes me hopeful they’ll bring him back in future games
It is surreal hearing Keanu making all the jumping noises we're so used to, lol
It’s official we have a remake of westopolis (kind of)
That chase scene going up the Tokyo Skytree was so fire

When Shadow ends up in SMTIV
The beginning of the stage music gives huge Final Fantasy vibes and I love it 🔥
