There's been a lot of anticipation surrounding Sonic x Shadow: Generations since its announcement. Sonic Team's 'Year of the Shadow' has excited many as Shadow the Hedgehog has always been a fan-favourite.
Sonic Team has released a few more screenshots of their upcoming title, one a render of Black Doom, the archenemy of Shadow, and two featuring Sonic romping around Sky Sanctuary. Black Doom has been slightly re-designed to reflect the more colourful art style of Sonic Generations, he's now sporting colourful crystals.
Black Doom is the main antagonist of 2005's Shadow the Hedgehog, the first game to feature Shadow as a protagonist. The inspiration behind Shadow the Hedgehog was to capitalise on his popularity, and demystify his mysterious past for fans. As it turns out, in a Darth Vader-esque move Black Doom was the one who helped Gerald Robotnik create Shadow.
Black Doom once again opposes Shadow in Shadow Generations. He's been resurrected through unknown means and if we know anything about Black Doom, he's probably going to try and bring about that Grand Prosperity master plan he was cooking twenty years ago. Safe to say, we can expect an epic confrontation between the pair...
