In the [[Xbox 360]]/[[PlayStation 3]] version of ''[[Sonic Unleashed]]'', the explosive crates look much like wooden [[container]]s, except they have a red burst-like symbol on their surface. They appear only in a few of the game's nighttime [[Action Stage]]s. In addition to detonating it by attacking, the player can [[grab]] it by pressing {{B Button (Xbox)}}/{{Circle Button (PS)}} and then throw it at enemy which has a reticle over it.

The explosive crate has the same dimensions as the regular wooden container, except they possess a red coloration. When destroying an explosive crate in gameplay, it releases a small explosion that deals damage to surrounding enemies. However, the player is unaffected by the explosion. The explosive crate is very fragile though as it detonates if hit by anything, so it must be handled carefully.
Game appearances
Sonic the Hedgehog (2006)
In Sonic the Hedgehog (2006), the explosive crate is made of red and black metal with frames and is emblazoned with a white and red flame-symbol. They can be found everywhere in the game, and are arguably the second-most common form of container. When destroyed, they deal one hit worth of damage to all enemies in the near vicinity. Additionally, they are useful for gaining extra points; if the player detonates the crate inside a cluster of enemies and it takes all the enemies out, the player will earn bonus points.
