Ok even though it’s a tie in with the Sonic 3 movie actually running through a Real city is pretty awesome! (even if some things arn't in the same style)
I'm guessing they could only get Keanu in the studio for 10 minutes because these voice lines sound horrible, absolutely zero energy. The level itself is cool though
I mean for starters, modern sonic voice directing is usually dogwater on top of already having very unfitting voice actors for their characters (I.e. Kirk Thornton for example) but stuff like this is why celebrities shouldn’t be casted as voice actors UNLESS they have actual voice acting experience and talent, but money is always more important to them. This line delivery is terrible
is it just me or does Keanu sound half asleep during these voicelines? 2:57 you can only barely hear him say "doing here", his voice goes quieter than the music.
He sounds like he was shoved in a booth they had reserved for 10 minutes at 4AM, given the lines, was directed to "not make Shadow as angsty as in the movie", and then recorded all the lines on the first take while half-asleep. Absolutely awful voice acting, but I'm not blaming Keanu, probably wasn't his fault.
Could been 2 acts and a BOSS fight eggman's White crab robot from the movie or maybe a fight with movie Team Sonic or an Act 3 with the motorcycle...that could worth the 10 bucks....but sadly didn't. Don't get me wrong I think This DLC is Good....but doesn't worth that money
@ eh I don’t think this thing is really though that big to have more then an act it’s just meant to be a little level to hype you up for the movie and get game fans who don’t watch the sonic movie wanna watch the movie
YO THAT'S WHAT I SAID!!! We waited two months and they only gave us 1 stage and 2 challenges AND WE DON'T GET TO USE THE MOVIE SHADOW SKIN!! I swear they got till the Movie drops to add updates cause I swear if it's ONLY this it's unforgivable
To everyone saying that one level is too short: read the title again. This is just ACT 1 of this zone. I highly doubt Sega would reveal the entire DLC. The only thing I agree could be better are the voice lines, they don't sound as good I would expect them to be.
I mean... it's hella weird to drop like half a dlc and not say a word about it in advance or afterwards Sure it says Act 1 but I'm incredibly confident this is all the dlc is, especially with the challenge stages immediately unlocking once you've beaten the stage normally
@@OriginalGameteer I hope they release the second act once the movie is out. Maybe it has some movie spoilers and that is why it hasn't been released yet. We can agree that it would be really weird and underwhelming to only have one act
So, in the context of most Sonic games, including Sonic X Shadow, you can just BS the random springs and speed pads, etc, all over architecture away with "that's just how the Sonic dimension is". This is meant to be literal real world Tokyo. What's the excuse here? Honestly don't think it'd have been beyond their abilities to design this one level to not use the typical Sonic level gimmicks, and do a more JSR style level design--like, design it around the city's natural architecture.
On top of that, while it’s strange to only do half of the dlc, (my best guess is because the movie isn’t out yet) this only appears to be the first act, meaning it’ll likely continue,.
I’ve been playing Unleashed, so when I did this act I got every collectible and S rank in one run and went “that’s it?” Challenge levels definitely needed some extra collectables lol
@@ivanelugo I’ve been playing on my “pre patch 100%” save file, there’s no new hard mode anywhere. It’s just the Ring to the single act and it’s 2 challenges.
"It looks like how Maria described the Earth" my brother in christ you have been living on Earth for how long at this point??? Like, this isn't straight up Movie Shadow, this is Main Timeline Shadow in the Movie Dimension, but that line seems like it's supposed to be straight up Movie Shadow??? The dlc is fire but that one line confuses me so much lol
@ I mean with all the crap that goes on in these dudes lives, I’m sure he’s seen way more cities than just San Francisco. Even still, he didn’t say “it looks like how Maria described Japan” he specifically said “It looks like how Maria described the Earth” which is phrasing that implies he hasn’t seen the Earth before
@@Savant_Ascent it’s a glorified movie 3 ad, we knew this as soon as they even said movie shadow sega has been doing great lately, but please do not overinflate your expectations. you will be let down almost everytime. with anything.
Usually I’m not one to excuse SEGA and Sonic and decisions and stuff, but to be fair this was a free level made purely for marketing. There clearly wasn’t going to be much to expect from it.
True. While the movie models will never look good outside of the actual films or the newer figures, it’s still an improvement over the awful mobile game versions, but with the model, there’s now more availablity for 3D fanart and mods
By that I mean the movie designs do look genuinely really fantastic, especially with each new film (though sonic does get more wrinkly with each and it looks gross) the movie models will look strange outside of a prerendered film environment. But this is definitely better than the cases before, but it’s cool that we have a movie model for shadow even if it isn’t extremely detailed.
3:44 ok but holy this transition to gameplay is another level
I didn't expect him to flip off the railing, I just expected him to land on the ground and continue running. Had me screaming bruh
3:37 that GUN soldier didn’t waste any time
I don't get paid enough for this shii
final Horizon vibes
But with the third movie vibes.
With John Wick as Shadow
And a paid DLC
Ok even though it’s a tie in with the Sonic 3 movie actually running through a Real city is pretty awesome!
(even if some things arn't in the same style)
This music
That's from Westopolis
WE ARE BACK TO WESTOPOLIS?
its tokyo my man
It simply uses Westopolis' theme
I'm guessing they could only get Keanu in the studio for 10 minutes because these voice lines sound horrible, absolutely zero energy. The level itself is cool though
Thats exactly what I was thinking 😂
Keanu is a very zero energy guy. He was like this in Cyberpunk too.
Yeah the jumping noises are terrible

Keanu reeves has sounded like that for at least a decade dude.
I think that’s just the sound mixing 😭 that or the player might have music volume higher than sfx
I take it you're not familiar with Keanu as a actor.
The mixing is horrendous, but that doesn't take away from Keanu's lackluster performance. He sounds super bored.
He sounds like he was shoved in a booth they had reserved for 10 minutes at 4AM, given the lines, was directed to "not make Shadow as angsty as in the movie", and then recorded all the lines on the first take while half-asleep.

the cutscenes looked incredible
I was lowkey expecting a second act but for 6 dollars this is perfect
I sadly disagree…this was fucking disappointed.
Maybe if it had two acts. It should've been free ngl. The level is great but it's so short.
Could been 2 acts and a BOSS fight eggman's White crab robot from the movie or maybe a fight with movie Team Sonic or an Act 3 with the motorcycle...that could worth the 10 bucks....but sadly didn't.
Don't get me wrong I think This DLC is Good....but doesn't worth that money
@@EternityVoid_ it’s only free if you got ditgal deluxe (like me) but I agree. I feel bad for those who played $6 for it
It's less expensive than the digital upgrade. So, there's that.
2:06 HE SAID THE THING!
IS THAT A WESTOPOLIS REMIX
Yes
Welcome back to Doom's time
I half expected a boss fight between our shadow and movie shadow.
I wish that but it was pretty obvious it wouldn’t be in the game sadly because that would be to cool for 6 dollars /10+ for deluxe
Movie sonic would’ve made more sense but looks like they couldn’t afford Ben Schwartz
@ eh I don’t think this thing is really though that big to have more then an act it’s just meant to be a little level to hype you up for the movie and get game fans who don’t watch the sonic movie wanna watch the movie
Why would you expect some outlandish shit like that💀
If this is Canon it would be interesting for Sonic from the movies to be a different canonical universe.
The movies are their own timeline, this is just an ad for Movie 3. Shadow basically didn't change much.
My personal opinion: it’s too short.
I waited 2 months for a 3 minute level? Cmon sega. i S ranked it first try
i think its more of a playable advertisment
Honestly that’s what I expected. Nothing too crazy. Still cool.
It’s only 6 dollars
@@epicgobbleygourdfan I cancelled my game pass to buy that shi then immediately returned it after I beat the level

WHAT THE HELL IS HAPPENING IN SHIBUYA?!
How did Shadow change his voice from Kirk Thornton to Keanu Reeves?

@@Sophie93-i1rwhat do you mean “Magic”?
I have no idea
Because Sonic 3 Movie shows UP in Tokyo
I'm gonna guess this works with Kingdom Hearts-esque rules, where the character's bodies change to fit whatever universe they're in

What’s crazy is that act 1 teases an act 2. Shadow is coming back to this stage.

westopolis remix. 10/10.
The dlc is peak i will say that but its only 1 level? Like it aint gonna have its own long ass storyline?
No because they’re not trying to spoil the movie and this is already an extension of an existing game.
Shadow did say he’ll be back. So who knows, maybe after the movie, we’ll get more levels.
Is a promotional Level for the movie , think for a second dude
It’s a promotional level to promote the movie. Its very obvious
On top of that, while it’s strange to only do half of the dlc, (my best guess is because the movie isn’t out yet) this only appears to be the first act, meaning it’ll likely continue,.
Radical Highway ultra pro Max I love it!❤❤❤
Really Hope the boss of this DLC is Movie Sonic
Was that movie Sonic boss fight rumor fake or is there gonna be a second act to this after the movie comes out?
It was most likely fake
Very nice
DLC gets a DLC?
Has this happened before in any Sonic Game? lol
Shadow generations no is a dlc , what are you talking about 😂
It’s more of a dlc for an expansion. Shadow Gens could stand on it’s own and imo is better and long enough to be compared to Sonic Gens
Enemy territory remix let’s gooo!!!!!!!
Keanu loves Playing as Shadow
i like it is this dlc like 6 hours long?
I’ve been playing Unleashed, so when I did this act I got every collectible and S rank in one run and went “that’s it?”
Challenge levels definitely needed some extra collectables lol

Looks good
WESTOPOLIS THEME REMAKE LETS GOOOOOOOO
I wished you can play that skin in the shadow generations side😢
Now the question is: Is that Canon?
Didnt get the posters...
So this is game shadow in movie shadow's body
How are you playing this?
It just came out
And that’s if you get the digital deluxe
how do you access it tho? i installed the dlc and keep restarting the game but i cant play it

I guess the true Act 2 is the depression setting in.
I'm never gonna get Pass that.
w sonic game!!!!!!!!
Jaja luego te dicen que es canon que shadow viajo al universo de la peli
wait a damn minute. How the hell is this 60fps, you seem to be on the switch.
Was hoping Movie Sonic, Tails and Knuckles appeared.
Same
