This article pertains to the beta elements of Sonic Forces.

Unused animations[]

Sonic Generations leftovers[]

Classic Sonic[]

All the animations for Classic Sonic from Sonic Generations are present in the game files of Sonic Forces, including the unused dancing animations with their proper names. The animations were edited so that Sonic's mouth and eyelids do not move.[1]

Goal Post[]

Goal Plate animations for Classic Eggman. These are carried over from the Challenge Acts where the player is required to continually bounce a Goal Post through the air.

Egg Pawns[]

The Egg Pawns have an unused "seek" animation. This was intended to play after the player leaves the enemy's search range, similar to in previous games, such as Sonic Heroes and Sonic Generations.

Silver[]

Silverhurt

Silver's unused hurt animation.

An unused animation of Silver featuring him in a damaged pose, similar to the one when facing Infinite for the first time in the intro cutscene.

Sonic Lost World leftover skybox[]

Sonic-Forces-screen-ENG-08

A skybox texture from Sonic Lost World can be seen on an early promotional screenshot of Sunset Heights. Later a different, darker texture was used.

Final Judgement skybox[]

While used in the final game, the pink cloudy Final Judgement skybox cannot be seen normally.[2] It was probably a leftover of the "vast and deep underground cavern" at the end of the main shaft described in the early script. The script also compares it to the Central Dogma from Neon Genesis Evangelion.

Unused dialogue[]

Narration[]

There is some unused narration meant for right after Sonic is defeated by Infinite at the beginning of the game.

Clip Transcript
With Sonic defeated, Eggman's army quickly took over. Within months, all but a few isolated areas in the world were under their control.
Despite the overwhelming odds, a rag-tag Resistance formed, banding together to continue the fight.
And now, a new face appears to join the struggle.

Similarly, in the beginning of Episode Shadow, Shadow narrates the story to the player like the text words before the game began:

Shadow: It was one month before the Doctor took over the world. The first time I encountered... him.

Double Boost[]

In the game's files are unique voice clips of Sonic shouting "Double Boost" during the different instances where the move is used:

Clip Level
Arsenal Pyramid
Red Gate Bridge
Null Space
Final Judgement

Maximum Power[]

In the game files are unused alternative voice clips for finishing a boss fight:

Clip Transcript
Time to wrap things up, partner!
Let's do this! Maximum Power!

Lost Valley[]

In Lost Valley, there are some unused voice lines related to the sand falls related to Sonic.

Clip Transcript
Sand waterfalls are great! You can run on 'em and everything!
If only the view was a little better.
Gotta get Green Hill back to normal quick.

Egg Gate[]

Swapping the object placement data also causes the game to load wrong voice lines. When playing Green Hill with Enemy Territory object placement, voice lines for Egg Gate play, some of which could not be heard during the actual stage:[3]

Clip Character Transcript
Sonic Phew! I needed a good workout after all that rest.
Sonic I haven't lost my edge.

These voice clips are also used in the early animation of the Egg Gate.

Vs. Eggman[]

In the Vs. Eggman boss fight there's a unused voice line related to Phantom Ruby:[4]

Dr. Eggman: "So the Phantom Ruby created a rift in the dimension fabric?"

Park Avenue[]

In Park Avenue there are some unused voice lines related to the Avatar:

Clip Character Transcript
Espio Always stay calm in battle!
Espio Don't slip up, or it could be lights out.
Vector Keep your head on straight, Rookie!
Charmy That's so cool! I'd just get dizzy!

Espio Fortune favors the bold! Take them out!
Silver (map screen/after Park Avenue) Nice! A Job well done!

Capital City[]

Espio I sense the enemy approaching!
Espio Fortune favors the bold! Take them out!
Knuckles Just trust your gut and keep going!
Knuckles What is up with that thing? Nngh! Even if we know it's all fake, there's nothing we can do!!

Red Gate Bridge[]

In Red Gate Bridge there are some unused voice clips. The first ones are related to the Death Egg Robot sentinel's Real-Time Interaction:

Clip Character Transcript
Shadow Hmph. Hardly impressive.
Shadow Even you should be able to pull that off.

The second ones are related to the Metal Sonic replica's boss fight:

Clip Character Transcript Notes
Sonic Hey, Metal! Looks like you've hit a growth spurt since the last time we met! When the player encounters Metal Sonic before the boss fight starts.
Sonic Let's see how your speed is!
Knuckles Both of you just run fast and catch up! You'll get an opening soon enough! Knuckles telling the player how to beat Metal Sonic.
Sonic Come on, who do ya think you're talking to? I got this!
Knuckles Hey, watch out behind you! Just run! Referring to the wall of energy cubes that is chasing the player. However, the player never encounters an event to where they are being attacked from behind as they are in front of them in the final version of the game.
Knuckles Keep your cool! Watch closely and evade!
Sonic Alright! Let's see who's faster.
Sonic Looks like he's pretty worn down!
Sonic This is our chance to blast right through! Explaining about the Double Boost for the final blow.
Knuckles Now's your chance, guys! Let 'em have it! Explaining about the Double Boost for the final blow.
Sonic Yeah! We did it! Both Sonic and Rookie defeating Metal Sonic, before the results screen appears.

Guardian Rock[]

Clip Character Trascript
Amy Watch out for the enemy's stomp attack!
Knuckles If it wants to throw it's weight around, we'll fight back with maneuver ability.
Knuckles Give that cast Iron Crab something to foam in the mouth about!

Null Space[]

The player spawns in the middle of the first section of Null Space. By hacking or using the Null Space Full Version mod,[5] it is possible to start from the beginning, triggering some unused voice lines:

Clip Character Transcript
Sonic A prison that goes on forever, huh?
Sonic At least getting sent here taught me something.
Sonic Nothing beats realizing that you're not alone!

Imperial Tower[]

  • Tails: Concentrated energy reading at high altitude! That's... an Orbital Laser Cannon?!
  • Knuckles: What? Concentrated energy reading at high altitude. Wait, is that an Orbital Laser Cannon?!
  • Knuckles: If that laser catches you, it's all over! Keep going and watch yourself!
  • Knuckles: This isn't good! Run, RUN!

Final Judgement[]

  • Sonic: Alright! We took out the reactor!
  • Tails: The Fortress won't hold there for long! Get out of there!

Enemy Territory (DLC)[]

There are some unused lines from Rouge and Shadow after the second two lines from Omega and Rouge in this stage:

Rouge: I've lost Omega's signal! Shadow, get to his best known location and provide support.
Shadow: Already on it! Heh, I knew it. So much for recon!
Rouge: You're almost at the spot where we've lost contact with Omega.
Shadow: What is going on here...?

Virtual Reality (DLC)[]

Here, the player plays as Shadow in Virtual Reality with level design resembling Guardian Rock's more. When the player goes through the loop and dodges the Death Crab's legs for fifth time, six unused lines can be heard from Shadow and a replica Rouge:[6]

Shadow: Rouge... What happened to Omega?
Replica Rouge: Oh, who knows? He haven't heard a beep from him since he was dispatched last week.
Shadow: I thought you said he was destroyed three months ago.
Replica Rouge: ...
Replica Rouge: In any case, that Omega sure is a clumsy bucket of bolts isn't he? Oooh, I can't wait to see the look on that smashed-up tin can's face!
Shadow: You. Are you really Rouge?
Replica Rouge: Of course I'm me. Just like how you're you.

These clips are only heard from Shadow:

  • "What the- What's going on, where am I?"
  • "This doesn't feel like an illusion, but..."
  • "Could it be a trap? Fine. I'll play along."

Miscellaneous[]

Unused Shadow move[]

Hacking a certain value of Shadow the Hedgehog's Boost code aside from changing the effect causes an unused sound effect to play, possibly for Chaos Control.[7]

Unused Moto Bug attack[]

Moto Bugs have an unused behavior called "JumpAttack". When enabled, the badniks can make slow leaps.[8]

Early unused graphics[]

Image Description
Sonic-Forces-VR-Demo-Splash A splash screen for "Sonic 2017 VR Demo Version" can be found in vr_stage.pac.[9] A red stamp-like text reads "2nd ROM - CONFIDENTIAL." It is unclear whether this is referring to a build of the game involving a Virtual Reality Headset or a build focusing on testing aspects of the Virtual Reality represented in the game.
Sonic-Forces-Ui-theater-dummytexture A placeholder picture for theater previews as Sonic is about to get smashed in the face by rubble from the game's reveal trailer.
Sonic Forces unusedbg A faded-paper-like graphic similar in style to the VR demo splash screen.
Sonic-Forces-Ui-we-img An early version of the "new item" notification graphic along with some other seemingly UI-related stuff.
SonicForcesUnusedESRBScreenSonic-ForcesUi-title-esrb-rp An unused splash screen with the game's ESRB rating and "Rating Pending."
Sonicforces col stone A temporary texture with "stone" written on it, both in English and Japanese.
Avatarshirt The T-Shirts for the Avatar have an unused bottom half of the texture, which seems to resemble a pair of white shorts. There's also a small ghost which is most likely the one seen from Sonic Adventure 2.
Sonic Forces (defaultibl debug) An unused cubemap with the picture taken at Pixar Animation Studios, as a statue of Pixar's mascot, Luxo Jr., can be seen along with a Star Toy Ball from Toy Story.

Early stage layouts[]

Earlier object placement files remained, many of them differ from the final layouts significantly.

Mortar Canyon[]

The early layout of Mortar Canyon is more difficult and features long lines of Dash Panels.[10]

Sunset Heights[]

Early Sunset Heights had many rows of Springs and does not, as least partially, match the final stage model and its collisions.[11]

Park Avenue[]

The beginning of Park Avenue does not match the model. The stage originally also had more Badniks.[12]

Egg Gate[]

Unlike the rest of the stages, early Egg Gate only has slightly different camera angles and dialogue.[13]

Mystic Jungle Tag-Team[]

This layout consisting of Egg Pawns and some Dash Panels does not match any stage from the final game. It has a 2D section with loops and sloped surfaces. It has been discovered to be a tag-team stage, through the data of stages.[14]

Object testing layouts[]

Three layouts that seemed to be used for testing objects, enemies, and effects.[15]

Episode Shadow[]

Within the Nintendo Switch demo of the game, unused layouts have been found. Enemy Territory is fairly different (particularly in the 2D half), Virtual Reality is almost completely different, and in both the Galaga Bees are noticeably broken/unfinished.[16]

Unused objects and parameters[]

Unused objects have been discovered, either in early stage layouts or simply not used at all.

Swinging wire targets[]

Swinging wire target

A variant of Wire Targets that was unused in the final game. It has the same design as the red Wire Targets, but functions similarly to Horizontal Bars. Seen in one of the testing layouts.[15]

Spike bars[]

An unused obstacle associated with Casino Forest.[17]

Falling transportation platforms[]

The platforms that move when Sonic stands on them in Metropolitan Highway can be set to fall after reaching their destination, behaviour that is unseen in the final game.[18]

Unused warning signs[]

The "CautionVolume" objects that are used in the final game for button prompts can also display exclamation mark ("caution"), quickstep, or drifting symbols. They are nearly identical to the ones used in Sonic Colors, except here they all have a red and black color scheme, and the quickstep and drifting symbols do not have the same animations they had in Colours.[19]

Beta script[]

Direct translation from a draft of the script for the game in January and three revisions in March were leaked in 2018.[20]

Various authors notes and reminders have been placed throughout the scripts, all of which have been placed in [note] for readability.

【プロローグ】エッグマン
[Prologue] Eggman
Dr. Eggman's laboratory. Orbot and Cubot are present as well.
Eggman: Mwa-hahaha! I've perfected the ultimate creation, an unstoppable force! Eggman: Sonic. How I hate him. And all of that loathing has been focused into this invincible instrument of destruction.
Partial views of Valtron and Infinite. (Infinite's face will not be shown. The focus will be on Valtron. Add Valtron sound effects.)
Eggman: With this power in my pocket, the world is mine! My long-awaited dream of the Eggman Empire will come to fruition! Mwa-hahaha! Eggman: Every defeat, every humiliation at the hedgehog’s hands will be returned a thousand fold by my unstoppable creation.
Eggman: With this power I will burn Sonic's world and build my empire upon the ashes! Mwa-hahaha!
Orbot: The boss means business this time![note 1]
[Stage 1] Green Hill Flashback Sonic
Collapsed and destroyed buildings. Fires are burning in various locations around the city. Sonic is running through the area, and receives a call from Tails. Establish collapsed and destroyed buildings. Fires are burning in various locations around the city. Sonic is running through the area, and receives a call from Tails.
Tails: Sonic! Hurry up! Tails: Sonic! I've never seen Eggman so merciless. Tails: Sonic! I've never seen Eggman so serious.[note 2]
Tails: Eggman's got a huge army right outside the city. Tails: His army is enormous, and it’s right on top of us!
Tails: Oh no! They're heading our way! Hurry! Tails: We're getting totally overrun. Unless you get here soon, it’s over!
The call suddenly cuts off, and only static can be heard.
Collapsed and destroyed buildings. Fires are burning in various locations around the city.

Eggman's ominous army of mechs starts to invade. Eggman's mechs approach as people huddle against walls with nowhere to run. Just as the mechs launch their attack and Tails and the others close their eyes, Sonic destroys the mechs.[note 3]

BACK WITH TAILS: We see collapsed and destroyed buildings. Fires are burning in various locations around the city. Eggman's ominous army of mechs starts to invade. Eggman's mechs approach as people huddle against walls with nowhere to run. Just as the mechs launch their attack and Tails and the others close their eyes, Sonic enters and destroys the mechs.
Sonic: Sorry for the hold up. Sonic: Is everyone okay?[note 4]
Tails: Sonic! You made it just in time! Tails: We are, thanks to you. Cutting it kind of close, though, pal.[note 5]
Sonic: Yeah, that’s pretty much how I roll.
The crowd is excited by Sonic's arrival. Sonic gives a big thumbs-up.
Sonic: Let's do this, Eggman! Sonic: Okay, let's finish this, Eggman!
Eggman: Sonic, this time, it will be your end! Behold the power of my ultimate masterpiece! Eggman: It will be your finish, Sonic. Behold the power of my ultimate masterpiece![note 6]
Sonic accelerates at a furious pace toward his nemesis, Eggman. Sonic was knocked down by Shadow. Sonic accelerates at a furious pace toward Eggman. Sonic is knocked down by Shadow.
Sonic: Shadow! Why...? Sonic: Shadow! It's you..?[note 7]
Like a bad dream, figures descend and land one by one before the humiliated Sonic. (Valtron's aura surrounds all these figures) Zavok, Metal Sonic and other former Eggman underlings, as well as Shadow and even Chaos are lined up. (Shown zoomed up, one by one, followed by a group view.) Sonic is speechless from the unbelievable scene. A final mysterious silhouette slowly rises (Infinite). Infinite can't be seen, due to the dust. (Or just his legs/feet are shown.) Sonic rises and attacks Infinite. But each time, a strange mechanical sound (the Valtron sound effect) is heard, space is warped and distance altered so that all of Sonic's attacks miss.
Tails: Is he controlling space? ...No, that's not it! What is that power he's using!? Tails: Whoa! This guy is faster than Sonic! No, wait! It’s something else. Gotta scan him and figure this out.
From behind, above, and below, Sonic is blindsided with attacks.
Sonic: What are you? Sonic: What are you? How are you doing-- (impact grunt).
Sonic: Tails! I need to know what’s going on with this guy![note 8]
Tails: I’m trying, Sonic, but these readings are all messed up! They don’t make any sense![note 9]
Sonic: Running out of time here, Tails![note 9]
Sonic's vision gradually darkens as he is hit with a devastating blow. He hits the ground hard and tries to rise, but loses consciousness and collapses.

Tails: SONIC!
With Sonic defeated, Eggman's army quickly took over. Within months, all but a few isolated areas in the world was under their control.[note 10]
Despite the overwhelming odds, people continuing the fight in various regions joined together to form a resistance. Despite the overwhelming odds, people continued the fight in various regions and banded together to form a rag-tag resistance.
And now, a new face makes ready to join the struggle. And now, a new face prepares to join the struggle.
[Resistance Hideout] The main members of the resistance have gathered.
Vector: We've been making no progress for a while now. There is no way we'll get any new recruits this way. Vector: Eggman’s army is unstoppable! Without Sonic, the people are losing hope and giving into despair.
Silver: Despair is a luxury we don’t have.[note 11]
Amy: Oh, if only Sonic were still alive. Amy: I still dream that Sonic is with us. Do you think he might be--
Silver: You must face this reality. Sonic and Tails are no longer with us. We are going to have to fight this battle without them. Silver: I'm an optimist, but I'm also a realist. Sonic is gone, Amy. And Tails is... Tails has just lost it. If we're going to win we have to do it without them.[note 12]
Espio: He's right. It's been six months since we formed this resistance. We have almost enough forces to strike back. Espio: Silver's right. We've been hoping for a miracle these past six months, but I'm afraid we have to make our own miracle.
Silver: Victory will not be determined only by brute force. We must teach Eggman this lesson. Silver: Eggman's army has everyone terrified. If we want the people to rally we have to show them that strength doesn't just come from numbers.
Charmy: Wait, wasn't there supposed to be someone new here today? Charmy: Not everyone is terrified. Isn't a new recruit joining us today?[note 13]
Silver: Yes, a survivor from the city, right?
Amy: Hold on, let's look at the file. Amy: I’m accessing the file now...
Transition to the character creation menu. While the player creates their character, the resistance members continue to talk.
Character creation ends.
Knuckles appears in front of everyone.
Silver: Any news, Commander? Silver: Knuckles! What’s the sitrep, Commander?
Knuckles: Sorry to keep you all waiting. There've been a lot of battle reports coming in. It took a while to sort through them. Knuckles: Happy to see you’re all still alive. Eggman’s forces have chewed through our defenses at Green Hill, and the resistance in the city is reporting that whatever it is that finished Sonic… (a short pause)… sorry, I’m still not used to saying that… whatever it is has got them running in fear. Knuckles: Happy to see you’re all still alive. Eggman’s forces have chewed through our defenses at Green Hill and Cocoa Island, and the resistance in the city is reporting that whatever it is that finished Sonic… (a short pause)… sorry, I’m still not used to saying that… whatever it is has got them running in fear.[note 14] Knuckles: Happy to see you’re all still alive. Eggman’s forces have chewed through our defenses at Green Hill, and the resistance in the city is reporting that whatever it is that finished Sonic… (a short pause)… sorry, I’m still not used to saying that… whatever it is has got them running in fear.
From behind Knuckles, a figure appears timidly and makes a small nod. Buddy.
Knuckles: Long story short, here's your new recruit. I want you to show 'em the ropes. Knuckles: All except for this brave kid, who survived the battle and made it here in one piece. Meet Buddy, our newest recruit.[note 15]
Charmy: Hmm. Doesn't look like much...
Espio: Vector, basing your judgment purely on appearances is unwise.

[Cut]

Amy: That's right. They survived the battle in the city. That's huge!

[Cut]

Knuckles: Neither do you, Vector, but I still manage to find a use for your scaly butt! Knuckles: Neither do you, Charmy, but I still manage to find a use for your scaly butt![note 16]
ALT: Neither do you, Charmy, but I still manage to find a use for your pointy butt!
Knuckles gives a gadget to Buddy.
Knuckles: Here, this is for you. We're depending on you. Knuckles: Here, kid. Take this. We're depending on you.
An uncomfortable Buddy smiles nervously, and stares anxiously at the gadget in his hands.
Knuckles: Okay, let's get going, everybody! We're gonna take back the world with our own hands! Knuckles: Okay, let's get going, everybody! The world’s not gonna save itself!!
【STAGE2】バディー
[Stage 2] Buddy
Silver: Commander, if I may, where is our next target?

[Cut]

Knuckles: The Space Port.

[Cut]

Vector: The Space Port? No disrespect, but why the heck would we target that?

[Cut]

Knuckles: We're going to rescue Sonic. Knuckles: I’ve just received some incredible news! Sonic is alive!
Silver: No way! That’s excellent!
Amy: Sonic!? Sonic's alive? Amy: What!? Oh, thank God! I knew it! I knew it!
Knuckles: Come on, no way he'd really be dead. I didn't want to mention it until I got confirmation, but-- Knuckles: He’s being held at the Space Port. My spy there says they’ve been torturing him for months. Not for information or anything. Just for fun.
Amy: I can't believe this. Amy: That’s horrible! We have to rescue him!
Silver: We'll be much stronger with him by our side!

[Cut]

Knuckles: Yep. But it's not that simple. We need a way to get to him. Knuckles: Plan’s already happening, Amy. I’ve got a squad on the way to the Space Port to "borrow" a shuttle.
Knuckles: That's why we're going to the Space Port. We need to get our hands on a shuttle Knuckles: C’mon, guys. Who’s up for an old school-style jailbreak?
"Find a Shuttle" mission is displayed for Buddy.
Espio: Espio here. We've engaged enemy forces at the Space Port. Espio: Espio here. We've engaged enemy forces at the Space Port. Encountering heavy resistance.
Sound effects for Infinite and Valtron can be heard from the communicator.
Espio: Be careful, we've got company. It's him... We'll try to hold them off. You guys get the shuttle while we've got them distracted. Espio: Be careful. We've got company. It's him... the monster who got Sonic! We'll try to buy you some time. You guys get the shuttle while we've got them distracted.
Vector: Rookie! You look a little shook up. Or did we just have an earthquake and I forgot to notice? Vector: Rookie! You look a little nervous. Time to cowboy up and get the job done!
Charmy: Don't listen to him. You can do it! You've got to. Do it for Sonic!
The Space Port Stage is completed when you arrive at the shuttle.
【STAGE3】 クラシック
[Stage 3] Classic Sonic
[Insert Cut: City] Tails is hard at work fixing a beat-up and powered down (eyes are not lit up) Omega, but Omega is not turning on.
There are whiteboards covered with equations all around him, as though he’s been trying to solve a major problem. Tails is working on a machine.[note 17]
Tails: Hmm, that should have done it… Tails: Uh, no, no, that’s not it. Or is it? (Lightly hitting his head) It’s not working, Sonic. It used to work, it used to... Tails: Hmm, that should have done it...[note 18]
I couldn’t figure it out for you, buddy. I’m sorry I wasn’t smart enough.
Chaos and Tails are facing off. Chaos appears. Chaos and Tails are facing off.
Tails: Just when I think I'm starting to piece together Eggman's secret power. Tails: Whoa! Chaos!
Tails: No! Not now, I need to save Sonic![note 19]
Chaos's hand extends towards Tails.
Tails: Oh no. I'm done for! Tails: I guess we’ll be together soon, Sonic. Tails: I guess we’ll be together soon, Sonic.

[Yes, he will meet Sonic in the afterlife.] [Aaron Webber: Lol this line is awful please remove it]

Just then, Classic Sonic appears with the Valtron effect. (Just his legs are shown.)
Sonic dashes toward Chaos and performs a spin attack and defeats him. (Sonic still not shown, just the blue blur.)

Classic Sonic lands in front of a stunned Tails. From behind, pan upwards from the legs to the back. (Cut done this way to set up the next Modern to Classic transformation.)

Tails: Sonic?
Tails: You came to save me! I can't believe it! Tails: You... you’re alive!!
As Tails is saying this, Sonic's appearance starts to blur. The silhouette changes from modern to classic. (If this is difficult to do, we will have a pan where it starts at the feet and as it moves up you see that it is classic Sonic.)
Tails: ...Huh? Tails: ...Wait, what?
Buddy stares at Sonic. Tails stares at Sonic.
Tails: You look like Sonic, but... Are you from a different dimension? Tails: You’re not Sonic. I mean you look like Sonic, but... Are you from another dimension?[note 20]
Tails: Whoa, I was right! But... what are you doing here? Tails: Right, right, right, that makes sense, I think. You’ve got that classic appearance, like you’re from a different generation. Do you know how you got here? Tails: Right, right, right, that makes sense, I think. Do you know how you got here?[note 21]
Classic Sonic doesn't know either and he shrugs and shakes his head.
Tails: Maybe the power that Eggman is using is somehow affecting other dimensions. Tails: The power Eggman used. Maybe it did affect space/time. That’s how he… beat Sonic. That power is somehow affecting other dimensions. If I can figure out how that works, maybe I can bring Sonic back! Tails: Maybe the power that Eggman is using is somehow affecting other dimensions.[note 22]
As if he agrees, Classic Sonic slaps his fist to his palm and nods.
Tails: Well, if that's the case, I'm pretty lucky that it happened just now! Tails: My Sonic, I mean. (sighs) It’s always confusing when other Sonics show up! Tails: Which might work to our advantage, I mean, everything happens for a reason, right?[note 23]
Tails: What's more, it seems like Sonic--I mean, the other Sonic--is nowhere to be found. We need to save the world but we're not doing so well on our own. Can you help us? Tails: Well, it’s still good to see you, Sonic. It’s good to see any Sonic! Tails: We need to save the world, and maybe that's why you're here. To help save the world![note 24]
Tails: You know, everything happens for a reason. We can’t just let Eggman take over the world. That’s not what Sonic would have…that’s not what he wanted. We need to save the world. Maybe that’s why you’re here. Tails: Either way, it's still good to see you Sonic. Heck, it's good to see any Sonic![note 25]
Fade out.
Classic Sonic runs around the city looking for Eggman. The "Find Eggman!" mission is displayed for Classic.
Tails: Eggman is trying to take over the world by using the same power that brought you here.

[Cut]

Tails: I got a sensor indication that Eggman is just ahead… Tails: According to my readings Eggman is just ahead.
Tails: But then I lost the signal! Tails: What? I lost the signal! Did I mess up again?
Get to the goal to complete the stage.

The city is now firmly under the control of Eggman's forces. The remnants of the resistance that were still returning fire are wiped out instantly by Infinite.

The city is now firmly under the control of Eggman's forces. The remnants of the resistance that were still returning fire are wiped out instantly by Infinite.
Eggman: Lay down your weapons or be destroyed, as your savior Sonic has been destroyed. Oh, did I say “savior?” I meant martyr! Mwa-hahaha! Eggman: Lay down your weapons or be destroyed, as your savior Sonic has been destroyed. Oh, did I say “savior?” I meant martyr! <evil laugh>[note 26]
(Infinite still won't be shown clearly at this point--mostly silhouettes and Valtron lighting effects only.)
Eggman: Sonic is gone, and Eggman is ascendant! Tremble before me and my creation![note 27]
Infinite's silhouette stands in a city reduced to rubble, with fires flickering and lighting Infinite up like a demon.
Infinite: Run and hide, or die here. It's you choice. Infinite: Yes. Tremble. Feed me with your fear.[note 28]
A shaking Buddy picks up the gadget at his feet, and starts to point it at Infinite. Infinite turns and glares at Buddy.
Infinite: I can taste your terror, child. All that anxiety and doubt... it’s delicious.
Infinite: Give in to your fear. Flee, screaming, and I’ll let you live.
Buddy flinches at the menacing eyes and backs up slowly, one step at a time.
Infinite: Hahahahahaha! Coward! You’re still alive, but can you live with your shame? Infinite: <evil laugh> Coward! You’re still alive, but can you live with your shame?[note 29]
Fade & Sound Effect as if returning to the real world.
Rouge is calling on the communicator.
Rouge: Knuckles! Can you hear me?
Knuckles: Rouge... We've been waiting for you. How's Sonic doing? Knuckles: Rouge... It’s about time! How's Sonic doing?
Rouge: He's been better. They're getting ready to execute him.
Silver: What? You can't be serious!
Rouge: He's been keeping Sonic alive all this time, waiting to show Sonic the completed Eggman Empire before executing him. Rouge: Eggman’s been keeping Sonic alive all this time, waiting to show him his completed empire before finishing him.
Knuckles: I can't believe he's been planning this the entire time. What a cruel thing to do. Knuckles: And torturing Sonic just to pass the time. That’s low, even for Eggman.
Rouge: But it seems he found out about our plans and is moving forward with his plans ahead of schedule. Rouge: Eggman got wind of our rescue plan and is moving forward with the execution ahead of schedule.
Rouge: We need to move up our plan of action as well. Rouge: The clock is ticking, boss.
Amy: But we don't even know where he is being held captive.
Rouge: Yes we do. Eggman has rebuilt the Death Egg and is holding Sonic there. Rouge: Yes we do. Eggman rebuilt the Death Egg. That’s where he’s keeping Sonic.
Vector: The Death Egg? If we don't get a move on, it's gonna be bad. Vector: The Death Egg? Oh, man, that’s not good.
Knuckles: None of this is good, Vector. That’s why it’s called "war."[note 30]
Knuckles: Alright, let's go, everyone. Time to bring Sonic home. Knuckles: You all know what to do. Let’s go get Sonic.
The "Rescue Sonic" mission is displayed for Buddy

Start at the Prison Satellite. Buddy traverses Hallway -> Maintenance area pipes -> Prison area (Alcatraz-like). The stage ends when the player reaches the prison area.

【ボス戦1】 ソニック VS ザボック [Boss Fight: Before the Battle]
[Boss Battle 1] Sonic VS Zavok
Sonic is bound with energy manacles. His head is bowed and he appears tired and beaten. He barely looks up when Zavok appears. We see the room shaking from the force of O.S. explosions. Sonic is bound with energy manacles. He looks up when Zavok appears.
Sonic: Hey, what's shaking? Sonic: Hey, what’s shaking? Get it? Because it’s shaking? Oh forget it… you’ve got no sense of humor.[note 31]
The energy holding Sonic's arms in place cuts off.
Zavok: Sonic. It's a little earlier than planned, but your time has come.
Sonic: Is that right? Maybe you should take care of that shaking problem first. Sonic: The end huh? Let’s see you try something now that I’m free.[note 32]
Zavok: Never mind that. Come quietly to face your end. Zavok: Foolish hedgehog. Getting out of your chains does not make you free. Now come and face the inevitable.[note 32]
Sonic raises his head, revealing a feral smile. Sonic grins with feral anticipation.
Sonic: You think you're gonna end me, huh? Now that I'm free, get ready to be disappointed. Sonic: The only thing inevitable here is my foot kicking your butt!

[Cut]

Zavok: So foolish, little hedgehog. You may be unchained but you are not free. I will defeat you right here.

[Cut]

Sonic: I'm free all right. Free to cut loose! Let's dance, Zavok!
[Boss Fight 1: Sonic vs. Zavok]
The "Defeat Zavok" mission is displayed for Sonic. Defeat Zavok to complete the stage.
Zavok falls, defeated. Zavok wavers and disappears as the Valtron sound effect can be heard. Surprised, Sonic looks around.
Sonic: That sound. I've heard it before. Sonic: That sound! Where have I heard that before? Sonic: That sound![note 33]
Another impact occurs and the room shakes again.
Sonic: Uh oh, looks like it's time to go. Now how do I get out of here? Sonic: Whoa! Not time for thinking. It’s time for running! Sonic: Whoa! It's not time for thinking. It’s time for running!
【STAGE5】 ソニック
[Stage 5] Sonic
With Zavok defeated, Sonic makes his way out of the prison. The "Get to the Shuttle Hangar" mission is displayed for Sonic. The prison satellite has explosions going off in various areas. Sonic starts running, searching for the exit while avoiding the multiple explosions. Sonic emerges into space through a hatch in the hallway. The world can be seen in the distance. Asteroids float around the satellite. The asteroids have been converted into Eggman Land--a bizarre fusion of a manufacturing plant and amusement park. Sonic continues to run around inside the prison satellite as sirens blare. The explosions in the prison satellite increase in frequency and intensity.
Sonic is running. Suddenly, up ahead, Buddy can be seen surrounded by enemies. Buddy's knees are shaking. Sonic rushes in and takes care of the enemies instantly. Sonic extends a hand to Buddy, who has fallen.
Sonic: Are you all right? Sonic: Easy there! Everything’s cool.
While nervous, Buddy grasps Sonic's hand and gets up.
Sonic: Are you here to rescue me?
Buddy nods several times.
Sonic: Can’t tell you how much I appreciate it. It’s been a while since I’ve seen a friendly face.[note 34]
A communication comes in from Knuckles.
Knuckles: Hey rookie, are you all right? Knuckles: Hey rookie, you still in one piece?
Sonic: That you, Knuckles? Sonic: Oh, sure, don’t even bother to ask how I am.[note 35]
Amy: Sonic! I'm so glad...
Knuckles: Hey Sonic, you're alive! We'll celebrate later. Everyone get back here right away! Knuckles: Hold up Amy. We’re all happy Sonic is alive! But he won’t be for long if he doesn’t get off that egg in a hurry.
Sonic: Your concern is touching, Knuckles.
Sonic and the resistance fighters return to the planet in the shuttle.
[Stage 6] Buddy and Sonic
Knuckles (Conversation at the hideout): Sonic, finding you alive is the best news we’ve had in months.
Knuckles: Listen up, everyone. Eggman's got a factory in Green Hill. Knuckles: And here’s the bad news: our intel indicates Eggman's got a weapons factory in Green Hill, pumping out munitions for his war effort.
Silver: A factory? We'd better take care of it before we try to take on Eggman at his home base in Metropolis. Silver: A factory? We can’t take out Eggman’s home base in Metropolis if he’s got a factory supplying him.
Knuckles: Yeah. Sorry Sonic, I know you just got back and all, but can you take care of this? Knuckles: No kidding. Look Sonic, I know you just got back but we’re spread thin. Can you take care of this?
Knuckles: Take the rookie with you, and destroy that factory in Green Hill. Knuckles: We need that factory in Green Hill destroyed. Take the rookie with you. You guys worked well together earlier. Knuckles: We need that factory in Green Hill destroyed. Take the rookie with you.[note 36]
Vector: You sure about that? That kid was shaking like a leaf the whole time we were at the Space Port. Vector: You sure about this? The kid was shaking like a leaf the whole time we were at the Space Port.
Charmy: I'm sure it was just cold there! The factory is nice and warm! Charmy: That’s because it’s cold in space! The factory is nice and warm!
Knuckles: Hey, cool it now. Sonic will take the lead. Rookie, just make sure you take good notes. Knuckles: It will be when it’s burnt to the ground! Sonic, you take the lead. Rookie, just make sure you take good notes.
Sonic: Relax and have fun! We're just taking a little factory tour. Sonic: I’ve got six months of payback I’m just dying to spend. This sounds like a good start![note 37]
The ""Destroy the Enemy Production Factory"" mission is displayed for Buddy and Sonic.

Green Hill has become a desert. A pyramid has been constructed. The pyramid is a production factory, with a dizzying array of machines in full motion. Sonic takes the lead and destroys enemies as he proceeds. Buddy follows. A group of upgraded mechs appears, blocking the way. Buddy hesitates and stops. Sonic notices and extends a hand to Buddy.

Sonic: Hey, don't be scared! This is your moment to shine!
Sonic: It might be tough, but we can do this together. Sonic: The longer we wait, the more enemies they're gonna build. We got this![note 38]

[Cut]

Buddy responds to Sonic's words of encouragement without thinking and grabs Sonic's hand. Their tag team attacks destroy enemy after enemy as they surge forward. *This is the first use of the Double Boost in the game.
Sonic: Yeah! That's how you do it! Sonic: Yeah! Now that's what I’m talkin’ about!
[Stage 7] Sonic
Sonic has arrived back at the hideout. A communication comes in from Amy.
Amy: An unknown enemy is attacking in the Casino Area! Silver is currently engaging it. You need to hurry! Amy: Something is attacking inside the Casino Area! Silver is fighting him... or it, or whatever. Just hurry!
Silver: Hurry! It's him! Silver: Guys! It’s him!
The Valtron sound effect can be heard.
Sonic: That sounded like… Sonic: Oh, great. The monster that kicked my butt.[note 39]
Sonic (to himself): Hate to admit it, but this guy’s got me a little worried.[note 40]
Sonic (bolder): Which is why I’m gonna fight through the fear and give him everything I’ve got! Sonic (bolder): I'm looking forward to a second round with this guy![note 41]
The "Pursue the Unknown Enemy" mission is displayed for Sonic. In the jungle, there are many stone buildings. Traps made of thorns and vines that have grown unnaturally large await. The jungle is also burning from bombing runs by Eggman's bombers. The resistance is firing back at the bombers with antiaircraft guns. An enormous snake attacks.
【ボス戦2】 ソニック VS インフィニット
[Boss Fight 2] Sonic VS Infinite
Silver is fighting Infinite in front of the laboratory. (Infinite cannot be seen--only voices can be heard.)
Mysterious Enemy: This was not part of the objective, but nevertheless, I will eliminate you. Mysterious Enemy: This wasn’t part of my agenda, but I’m always happy to crush a hero. It keeps the rabble in line. Shows them that there is no hope.
Silver: Does anyone but you believe your B.S.?[note 42]
ALT: ...believe your lies?
Silver and the unknown enemy have several clashes at incredibly high speeds. During the battle, a small pebble drops from the unknown enemy, and with a blue trail falls to the ground. Neither combatant notices the brief occurrence. Silver is knocked down by Infinite's attack. Silver and the unknown enemy have several clashes at incredibly high speeds. During the battle, a small pebble drops from the unknown enemy, and with a blue trail falls to the ground. Neither combatant notices the brief occurrence.
Mysterious Enemy: This will end it! Mysterious Enemy: Seeing is believing.[note 43]
Sonic suddenly appears in the frame, and blocks the attack.
Sonic: Time to tag out, Silver. I've got it from here!
The unknown enemy and Sonic finally confront each other. Finally, the camera clearly reveals Infinite (with accompanying sound effects).The unknown enemy and Sonic finally confront each other. The unknown enemy and Sonic finally confront each other. Finally, the camera clearly reveals Infinite (with accompanying sound effects).
Mysterious Enemy: What a surprise. I didn't think I'd see you again. Mysterious Enemy: Well, look who’s back from the dead. The little blue savior.
Mysterious Enemy: But what’s that I smell? You reek of fear. Glad to see I left an impression.
Sonic sniffs his armpits.
Sonic: That’s not fear. I ran all the way over here.[note 44]
Sonic: We should really get to know each other better. Like, what are your hobbies? I don't even know your name! And how did you get so big and strong? Sonic: And you haven’t left an impression. I still don’t know anything about you! Not even your name.
Mysterious Enemy: My name? I am Infinite. But the source of my power is none of your concern. Mysterious Enemy: You may call me "Infinite" in the brief moments that remain to you.
Sonic: Infinite... Nice to meet you. Sorry, but you've just GOT to share the secret of your power with me. I insist! Sonic: Great! See, Infinite, now we’re getting to know each other! So, what’s your favorite color? Do you like long, romantic walks on the beach? What’s the source of your power?
Sonic: You can skip the first two questions if you like.
Infinite: The source of my power is none of your concern.
Sonic: Sorry, but you've just GOT to share the secret of your power with me. I insist!
Infinite: Your insistence is futile!
(Valtron shimmers inside of Infinite's chest)
The "Defeat Infinite" mission is displayed for Sonic. Infinite fights with Sonic. Sonic is able to land some attacks.
Infinite takes things a little more seriously.
Infinite: Well. You've improved since the last time. But you will still lose.
Infinite uses Valtron. (The Valtron sound effect plays.) Sonic is startled as the surrounding space is warped and gravity is reversed. Infinite connects with a high-speed attack on Sonic while he is still surprised. Sonic is sent slamming through stone buildings, destroying them, and finally topples.
Infinite: Hmph, I thought so. Infinite: As I predicted.
Infinite: You’re not even worth the effort to finish off.
Infinite then calmly flies off. Wobbly, Sonic rises to his feet.
Sonic: Rgh, I have to figure out the secret to his power… Sonic: Rrrrrgh! I’ll never beat him until I figure out the secret of his power. Where’s Tails when I need him? Sonic: Rrrrrgh! I’ll never beat him until I figure out the secret of his power.[note 45]
【STAGE8】 クラシック
[Stage 8] Classic
Tails and Classic arrive in Green Hill after losing sight of Eggman.
Tails: Sonic... Well, I mean this world's Sonic... Eggman got him a little while ago. Tails: I failed Sonic... Well, I mean this world's Sonic... and Eggman’s monster got him.[note 46]
Tails: You're the only one left that we can ask, only you. Tails: But you’re here now. It’s like the world needs a Sonic... any Sonic, to keep things in balance.
Tails: If we defeat Eggman, this war will be over. Tails: With your help we can defeat Eggman, and this war will be over. Tails: If we defeat Eggman, this war will be over.[note 47]
Tails: And if we can figure out the secret to his power, maybe we can get you home. Tails: And if we can figure out the secret to his power, maybe we can get you home. And get our Sonic back! Tails: And if we can figure out the secret to his power, maybe we can get you home.[note 48]
Tails: Hey, the sensor is picking up Eggman! Let's hurry!
The "Find Eggman" mission is displayed for Classic Sonic. Stage completed upon reaching the goal.
【ボス戦3】 クラシック VS エッグマン
[Boss Fight 3] Classic Sonic vs. Eggman
Having found Eggman, Classic Sonic and Tails watch him from the shadows. Infinite crushes a blue pebble in his hands, and the crushed particles sparkle as they fall away.
Infinite: And with that, the disposal of the prototype Valtron is complete.
Eggman: It was a defective model. It could only record the DNA of the one that activated it.
Infinite: Only a being with my mental fortitude could even activate it. Infinite: Only a being with my strength of will could ever activate it.
Eggman: It doesn't matter now, with the Casino Laboratory locked down.
Eggman: Which reminds me, didn't you run into Sonic there after he escaped?
Infinite: Yes, but he was powerless against me. There is no need for concern.
Eggman: You let the hedgehog LIVE? That is a great source of concern.
Infinite: For you, perhaps. He has beaten you for decades, yet I defeated him in our first encounter.[note 49]
Tails: Prototype Valtron? And Sonic... is... alive?
Infinite reacts and turns towards Tails, whose quiet words had just slipped out.[note 50]
Eggman: What is it, Infinite? Eggman: What is it?
Infinite: I thought I heard…[note 51]
Infinite: It is nothing. Infinite: ...nothing
Infinite turns his attention back to Eggman.
Infinite: So, continue with the plan? Infinite: We move forward with the plan?
Eggman: Of course. When it's done, the resistance will be eliminated, and the world will be reborn as the Eggman Empire! Eggman: Of course! When it's complete, the resistance will be erased. The world will be nothing but ashes, from which a glorious Eggman Empire will rise!
Valtron, located on Infinite's chest, sparkles as if agreeing with Eggman's proclamation.
Infinite: None can challenge the power of Valtron. All will be forced to submit. Infinite: And the resistance will cower before the strength of Valtron. All will submit.
Infinite leaves. With Eggman now alone, Classic Sonic charges in and confronts him.
Eggman: What!? You! What are you doing here? Eggman: Sonic? Wait! You’re not Sonic, at least not Sonic from this world. Eggman: What!? You! What are you doing here?[note 52]
The "Defeat Eggman" mission is displayed for Classic Sonic
Eggman: Is it possible? Have the side effects of Valtron affected the dimensional boundaries? Eggman: Is it possible that Valtron can cause rips in the dimensional plane?
Eggman: Valtron's even more powerful than I envisioned. My genius knows no bounds! Eggman: It’s even more powerful than I could have hoped. My genius astonishes even myself!
Eggman's mech has been destroyed by Classic Sonic and Tails (who give each other a GOOD JOB thumb's up) Eggman's mech has been destroyed, but Eggman is not fazed.
Eggman: Oh hohohoho. Looks like you still have some flight left in you. Eggman: hohohoho. Look at you fighting like you’ve got a chance to win. It’s adorable.
Eggman: It makes me all sentimental to think that this is the last time I get to play with you. Eggman: Almost makes me feel bad that we’re never going to do this little dance again.
Eggman: In just three short days, my plan will eliminate the lot of you! Eggman: In just three short days my plan will eliminate the bothersome lot of you!
Tails: 3 days? Tails: Three days?
Tails: What are you talking about, 'plans'? Tails: What "plan"?
Eggman: That's my little secret, but you'll find out soon enough! Just let the anticipation grow, like a seed in your belly. Before you know it, it will all be over! Mwa-hahaha! Eggman: If I told you it wouldn’t be a surprise! You know what they say, the anticipation of the end is worse than the end itself... Maybe not it this case though. Mwa-hahaha!
Eggman then makes a quick escape as Classic Sonic looks on.

Amy's voice crackles through the communicator.
Amy: Eggman's army has invaded the city! We have to rescue the people who haven't evacuated yet! Amy: Eggman's army has broken through! They’re in the city! We need to get these people out of here!
Knuckles: We ought to help them, but Sonic and Silver need time to recover. Knuckles: Who can we send? Sonic and Silver need time to heal.
Espio: We've engaged enemy forces at Seaside Hill. We can't spare anyone!
Soldier: This is the 8th platoon! We're pinned down under heavy enemy fire!
Knuckles: Damn, I have no choice. Hey rookie, I've got a tough one for you. I need you to head back to the city. Knuckles: Damn, looks like I’ve got no choice. Okay, rookie, I've got a tough one for you. I need you to head back to the city and save those civilians!
The "Save the people" mission is displayed for Buddy. Buddy heads to the city, where Eggman's army is attacking. Buddy somehow manages to force Eggman's army to retreat on his own.
As Buddy returns to the base, he is greeted with praise.
Knuckles: That was impressive! An all-star performance! Knuckles: That was impressive, but don’t get cocky, kid!
Sonic: Great job! I knew you could do it if you gave it your all! Sonic: Great job! I knew you could do it if you believed in yourself!
Vector: Great job! I knew you could do it if you gave it your all! Vector: Nice moves, but if you hog all the glory, how am I going to look good?
【STAGE10】 クラシック
[Stage 10] Classic Sonic
Tails is talking with Classic Sonic.
Tails: I'm so happy Sonic is still alive! Tails: I can’t believe it! Sonic’s alive! I think I used up all my wishes for the rest of my life, but it’s worth it![note 53]
Tails: We have to hurry up and find him so we can let him know about Eggman's plan. Tails: Come on, we have to go find him and tell him about Eggman’s plan. Whatever his plan is.
Tails: Eggman mentioned that Sonic was at the Casino... Tails: Eggman said something about Sonic being at the Casino...
The "Find Sonic" mission is displayed for Classic Sonic. Classic Sonic enters the casino to look for Sonic. Stage cleared by reaching the goal.
【STAGE11】 バディー
[Stage 11] Buddy
Rouge calls on the communicator
Rouge: We've got a strange reading. Looks like it is close-by that Research Facility where Sonic fought Infinite. Rouge: The system is picking up a couple of strange readings. They’re coming from the Research Facility, the one where Sonic fought Infinite.
Silver: Are you sure it isn't just some robot? Silver: It’s probably another of Eggman’s robots.
Rouge: Life readings, two of them. Definitely not robots. Rouge: Nope. Two organic life readings heading this way. Rouge: Life readings, two of them. Definitely not robots.[note 54]
Knuckles: Hey rookie, go to the lab and check it out!
The "Scout Eggman's Lab" mission is displayed for Buddy. White water rapids stage. The goal is at the old 999 laboratory entrance.
Buddy arrives at the lab entrance. At that moment, there is a blue flash before Buddy's eyes. Startled, Buddy looks to where the blue flash came from. On the ground, there is a pebble that has a soft glow around it. Buddy approaches and picks up the pebble. It momentarily flashes the same way that Valtron did, and then the light quickly fades away. Classic Sonic and Tails happen upon Buddy, who is still looking puzzled. The resistance gathers at the hideout. Sonic and Classic Sonic meet each other.
Sonic: Whoa! You're… Sonic: Whoa! You're... really handsome.[note 55]
Classic Sonic nods. Tails then makes an appearance.
Tails: SONIC!
Sonic: Tails!
A teary-eyed Tails leaps in and hugs Sonic.
Tails: I was sooo worried! Tails: I was sooo worried! I thought you were...
Sonic: You worry too much. Look, I'm perfectly fine.
Tails suddenly remembers the important information that he has.
Tails: Oh! I've got bad news! Eggman has something terrible planned in three days, but I don't know what it is! Tails: That’s the best news I’ve heard all day! The worst news was when Eggman said he had some plan that will destroy us all in three days.
Sonic: Three days, huh? Sonic: Three days, huh? A lot can happen in that time![note 56]
【STAGE12】 ソニック
[Stage 12] Sonic
Tails: Eggman said it himself. When the plan is executed, we'll all be wiped out. Tails: Eggman said when the plan is completed we'll all be wiped out.
Knuckles: I don't like the sound of that. Any other time I'd say he was bluffing, but he's already conquered most of the world, so... What's this plan of his? Knuckles: I don't like the sound of that. Normally I’d just laugh at an Eggman plan, but he's already conquered most of the world, so... What's this plan of his?
Vector: Look, I know you're in the middle of an important meeting, but I need reinforcements! It's Shadow. Shadow is running rampant! Vector: Hey, I hate to butt into your important meeting, but we’re under attack! Shadow is tearing through our troops! We need reinforcements!
Sonic: Shadow... The last I saw of him, he was part of Eggman's army. Sonic: Shadow... The last time I saw him he was fighting for Eggman.
Knuckles: That's weird. Why would Shadow help the enemy? Knuckles: That doesn’t make sense. Why would Shadow help the enemy?
Silver: Perhaps he's being controlled by that strange power?
Sonic: Leave it to me. I'll get to the bottom of this! Sonic: Whatever it is, I’ll figure it out!
The "Locate Shadow" mission is displayed for Sonic. In the city, mass-produced Death Egg Robots are destroying things like they own the place. The stage ends when the player finds Shadow.
Sonic locates Shadow.
Sonic: Shadow! Why are you doing this? Sonic: All right, Shadow! What’s the deal?
Shadow charges toward Sonic at great speed. Sonic assumes a fighting stance in preparation. Just as Shadow and Sonic are about to collide...
Voice (Shadow): Chaos control!
Another Shadow appears, and knocks the first Shadow out of the sky. The felled Shadow disappears along with the Valtron sound effect.
Sonic: He just disappeared... Sonic: Whoa! He just disappeared... Sonic: He just disappeared...[note 57]
Shadow: That was a fake.
Sonic: A fake? Sonic: A fake? How?
(Dialogue style changes to map conversation, without changing location.)
Shadow: It was a virtual reality projection created by Infinite. It has mass and form, but it's not the real deal. Shadow: Infinite can create virtual reality projections. They have mass and form, but no heart and soul.
Sonic: Virtual reality? So all those guys that were part of Eggman's army... Sonic: Virtual reality? So all those familiar faces that were part of Eggman's army...
Shadow: Yes. And they may be virtual reality projections, but their ability is just as real as the originals. Shadow: Replicas. The problem is, they may not be real, but their powers are as formidable as the originals.
According to Rouge, Infinite can create unlimited numbers of them.
Sonic: So, fight after fight, he can just keep cranking out counterfeits?
Shadow: Fight after fight, he can just keep making more. As it stands, there's no way we can win this. Shadow: Exactly. As it stands, there's no way we can win this.
Sonic: Sure we can! We've just got to figure out how to stop production! Sonic: Of course we can win this! We always do! We've just haven’t figured that part out yet.[note 58]

[Metropolis] Commander Knuckles is giving orders to everyone.
Knuckles: Listen up, everyone. We just got word that Eggman's forces at his home base of Metropolis are extremely vulnerable! Knuckles: Listen up! We just got word that Eggman's forces are undermanned at his headquarters in Metropolis!
Espio: They are probably somewhere else preparing for that surprise. This could be our only chance. Espio: They’re probably staging somewhere else as part of Eggman’s plan. This could be our only chance to take the city.
Knuckles: That is why we will gather all our forces to assault Eggman's home base--Metropolis! Knuckles: Exactly! That’s why we’re focusing a full frontal assault on Metropolis!
Knuckles: This is Operation Big Wave! Knuckles: I’m calling it, Operation Big Wave!
Silver: Look, the name doesn't matter. What are the actual tactics, please? Silver: Who cares what it’s called? What’s important is to have a well thought out strategy.
Knuckles: No feints or jabs. We're all gonna crash into Metropolis and destroy it! Knuckles: I thought up this strategy in about a minute and a half. We’re going in hard and fast and we’re not going to stop till Eggman’s army’s destroyed.[note 59]
Silver: Well, I suppose instead of having an actual plan we can just hit things until they break...[note 60]
Knuckles: It’s always worked for me![note 61]
Knuckles: Sonic is busy fighting Shadow, so he can't join us. But the rest of us, with our combined might and sheer determination, will carry the day! Knuckles: Sonic is busy fighting Shadow, but the rest of us can do this! We’ve got the strength and the spirit to win this. There’s no finer group that I’d want to fight with.
Vector: Ha! Sounds like fun! Knuckles, I like your style. Let's give Eggman an old-fashioned beat down! Vector: Ha! Great speech! Let's give Eggman an old-fashioned beat down!
Tails: They have way more in sheer numbers, so the idea of a short-term focused attack isn't bad. Tails: They have more in sheer numbers, so the idea of a quick, focused attack isn't bad.
Tails: We have Sonic--I mean, the other Sonic--on our side too, so I'm sure we'll be able to do it! Tails: We also have Sonic-- I mean, the other Sonic-- so I have no doubt we can do this!
Tails: Also, if we can destroy Valtron, we should be able to send the other Sonic home! Tails: Also, if we can destroy Valtron, we should be able to send the other Sonic home! At least I hope so... this is all new territory for me... Tails: Come on! If we work together, we can do anything!
Knuckles: Okay, let's head straight for Eggman's HQ! Let's save the world, people! Knuckles: Okay, let's head straight for Eggman's HQ! Time to save the world, people!
The ""All-out Assault!"" mission is displayed for Buddy. Metropolis is full of tall, futuristic buildings. Floating highways wind their way between the buildings. They encounter Infinite along one of them.
Silver: Let's go do this!
Knuckles: Stand tall and leave it all out on the line! Knuckles: This is it, guys! We fight until we drop!
Other characters join in. The resistance has the momentum.
Eggman: Er, this is unexpected! Who would have thought that the puny resistance still had this much left in them? Eggman: Well, this is typical! These fools are too stupid to know when they’ve been beaten.
Knuckles: We've got this! Keep the Big Wave going and crush Eggman!
Silver: You’re really trying to sell this "Big Wave" thing, Knuckles! But, no matter what you call it, I'm in it to win it!

Silver: I will finish this!
Espio: I'm present as well and ready to offer assistance! Espio: Their numbers are meaningless against our righteous might!
Eggman: Not good! They keep breaking through! If they aren't stopped... Eggman: This is not the plan! They keep breaking through! If they aren't stopped...
Knuckles: We've almost done it! We just need to take down Eggman... Knuckles: Almost there, guys! We just need to take down Eggman...
Eggman: Oh my, it appears that I'm done for... Ha ha, just kidding! Did you really think it would be so easy? Eggman: Oh my, it appears that I'm done for... Ha ha, just kidding! Remember when I said, "this is not the plan"? I lied.
Eggman's expression changes from dismay to smugness in an instant.
Eggman: Infinite, time to show them the power of Valtron! Eggman: Infinite, show them the unstoppable power of Valtron!
The virtual reality projection system comes online. Infinite and Valtron glow.
Knuckles: Everyone, don't panic! Keep calm! I said, KEEP CALM! COOOOOL IIITTTTT!
The resistance's composure is completely lost in this devastating development.
Knuckles: Grr... This is bad! If we can't get it together, the Big Wave is gonna wash out!
Silver: Man, you are REALLY married to that name...
The stage ends when the player reaches Infinite's location.
【ボス戦4】 バディー VS インフィニット
[Boss Fight 4] Buddy VS Infinite
Infinite sneers down at the resistance.
Infinite: Hmph, no challenge at all. Infinite: More ants to crush. I wonder if this world can offer me a real challenge.
As Infinite turns, Buddy is there aiming the gadget. As Infinite and Buddy's eyes meet, Buddy starts to shake.
Infinite: Leave or die. The choice is yours. Infinite: And as if to answer, the world sends me a trembling child. You are not worth the seconds it would take me to destroy you! Run, and I will visit you again in your nightmares. Infinite: And as if to answer, the world sends me a trembling child. Run, and I will visit you again in your nightmares! Infinite: And as if to answer, the world sends me a trembling child. Are you going to fight and die here? Or, run away in fear again?[note 62]
Buddy drops his eyes, and starts to take a step back. But then, Buddy remembers Sonic's words.
Sonic: Hey, don't be scared! This is your moment to shine!
Buddy, while still shaking, slowly closes his hands into fists.
Sonic: Keep going. Don't let your fear own you!
Buddy clenches his fists. Buddy steps forward with a look of determination towards Infinite.
Infinite: Fine. I will put you back in your place. Infinite: Fine. I will teach you fear, then pain, and then… well, at least the fear and pain will end.
The "Defeat Infinite" mission is displayed for Buddy.
Somehow, Buddy manages to keep up with Infinite's movements.
Infinite: I remember you, you ran from me before. You survived then, but you throw it all away now. Curious. Infinite: Fine. I will teach you fear, then pain, and then… well, at least the fear and pain will end. Infinite: I remember you, you ran from me before. You survived then, but you throw it all away now. Curious.
Infinite uses Valtron (with sound effect).Buddy is startled as the surrounding space is warped and gravity reverses.
Infinite: This will be good-bye then. Infinite: This will be good-bye, then.
Just before Infinite's attack lands, the small pebble Buddy found activates and glows. For just a moment, the prototype Valtron responds, and neutralizes Infinite's Valtron effect. Buddy somehow manages to evade Infinite's attack.
Infinite: What!?
But it was just a momentary effect. Buddy's movement is back to normal. Infinite launches another attack at Buddy. This time, it slams into Buddy, and he crumples to the ground.
Infinite: Did my eyes deceive me? For a moment, I thought I saw something. Infinite: For a moment, I thought I saw... no. It was nothing.
Infinite: No matter. They have only two days left. Let them blunder about. I'll enjoy toying with them in the meantime. Infinite: No matter. They have only two days left. Let them contemplate the inevitable until I end this once and for all.
Infinite flies off, leaving a defeated Buddy. Buddy stumbles to his feet. His hand is tightly clenched around the mysterious pebble he found at the lab.

[Stage 14] Classic Sonic
Conversation in the hideout.
Knuckles: Things were going well with Operation Big Wave, but then everything drizzled out when that Valtron power kicked in.
Silver: That fake Shadow was created using the Valtron power, right? Even if it's a virtual reality projection, it's as strong as the real Shadow.
Shadow: Rouge, have you found the intel I was looking for?
Rouge: No, not yet. But I have reports that Eggman's database is located at the Space Port.
Rouge: If we can check that out, we might find something there.
Sonic: That sounds like a promising lead. We have to figure out the secret behind Infinite's power and virtual reality... Tails, can you handle this?
Tails: Got it. I'll take Sonic--I mean, the other Sonic--with me and head to the Space Port![note 63]
The "Find the Database" mission is displayed for Classic Sonic. Classic Sonic traverses the chemical plant.
Tails: Phew, so this is where the database is.
Tails: Hold on a sec, while I access the data from this computer...
Tails: Okay… failed battle plans... old robot designs... wow, he’s got like ten terabytes of selfies Photoshopped in with celebrities... so where does he keep the-- Tails: Okay… failed battle plans... old robot designs... wow, he’s got like ten terabytes of selfies... so where does he keep the--[note 64]
Tails: I found it! Virtual Reality weapon... Valtron... Tails: Found it! Virtual Reality weapon... Valtron...
Tails: A weapon that takes control of people's visual and depth perception to feed false information to the brain, creating a new reality for them...
Tails: Insidious! Like a dream so real if you cut yourself in it your sleeping self will bleed. Tails: Like a dream so real if you cut yourself in it your sleeping self will bleed. Tails: Like a dream so real if you bump yourself in it your sleeping self will bruise? It's hard to believe.[note 65]
Tails: Eggman experimented with lots of prototypes, and then incorporated the final version into Infinite. Tails: Exactly! Eggman experimented with lots of prototypes, and then incorporated the final version into Infinite. Tails: Eggman experimented with lots of prototypes, and then incorporated the final version into Infinite.[note 66]
Tails: If I'm reading this data correctly, then there might be a weakness.

[City] Knuckles: Yawn... There's nothing to do until Tails gets back from his search. [City] Knuckles: I don’t like sitting on the bench, but there’s nothing to do till Tails gets back.
Amy: Uh-oh, there's trouble! Metal Sonic has been spotted in the city! Amy: Way to jinx it! Metal Sonic has been spotted in the city![note 68]
Shadow: Is it another fake?
Sonic: If it's Metal, I don't think they'd bother making a fake one. Either way, we've got to stop him. Sonic: Why would they bother making a fake out of something that already isn’t real? Couldn’t they just build more?[note 63]
Sonic: Let's go, partner! Sonic: Either way, it’s getting wrecked! Let’s go, partner!
The "Stop Metal Sonic" mission is displayed for Buddy and Sonic. Sonic and Buddy are ambushed by a Death Egg Robot. They use grappling hooks and wires to swing around and climb to the head. (Similar to Attack on Titan.) They go from above ground to below, entering a tunnel and crossing a bridge. While involved in intense fighting, Sonic extends a hand to Buddy as he runs.
Sonic: Come on! If we combine our power, we'll be ten times stronger! Sonic: Come on! If we work together, this guy doesn’t stand a chance! Sonic: Come on! If we work together, we can do anything![note 69]
Chase battle with Metal Sonic using double boost. Buddy and Sonic are able to defeat Metal Sonic. Metal Sonic disappears with Valtron's distinctive sound effect.
Buddy is breathing heavily. Sonic stands beside Buddy, and gives a thumbs-up.
Sonic: Hey! That was great! We were totally in sync! Sonic: Hey! That was great! We were like a well-oiled machine... fighting a well-oiled machine.[note 70]
As Sonic extends his fist, Buddy grins, and extends a fist as well. Buddy and Sonic fist bump. They took out all the enemies.

[Green Hill] Tails is making his report back at the hideout.
Tails: I got it, Sonic! I figured out a way to stop Eggman's Valtron tech!
Sonic: Really? How's that? Sonic: Well don’t keep it a secret, share with the rest of the class. Sonic: Great work, Tails![note 71]
Tails: According to the data, Valtron needs a vast amount of energy, which is provided by the Death Egg. Tails: Based on these readings, Valtron requires an incredible amount of energy, which only the Death Egg can provide.
Tails: Therefore, in order to weaken Valtron, all we need to do is stop that energy transfer! Tails: We simply stop the energy transfer, and boom, the Valtron is practically useless.
Knuckles: You make it sound easy, but the Death Egg's weaponry is pretty formidable. Knuckles: Simply? Last I checked the Death Egg is a heavily fortified... well, Death Egg.
Tails: Don't worry! I came up with a plan! Tails: True. But I came up with a plan.
Tails: First, we set up a decoy to get Eggman's attention. Tails: First, we distract Eggman.
Tails: While he's distracted, we use the Space Port computer to shut down the Death Egg's weapons systems. Tails: While he's not paying attention, we use the Space Port computer to hack into the Death Egg's weapons systems and shut it down.
Tails: Then, all you have to do is destroy the Death Egg! With Valtron's power source cut off, it won't be able to go full power! Tails: With no weapons, destroying the Death Egg will be a piece of cake. No Death Egg, means nearly useless Valtron.
Vector: Dude, you were JUST AT the Space Port computer. Why didn’t you shut down the weapon system then?[note 72]
Tails: D’oh! Sorry! Man, I have really been off my game! From now I’m gonna check and double check before I make a move.[note 72]
Knuckles: I see. That just might work. So first we need a distraction. Leave it to me! Knuckles: Well, at least you figured it out. And, you know, it’s just crazy enough to work. . So first we need a distraction. I’m on it! Knuckles: Well, you know, it’s just crazy enough to work. So first we need a distraction. I’m on it![note 73]
Amy: No, Knuckles, your temper gets the better of you and then YOU get distracted. That's not very useful as a decoy. Plus, you're our commander! Amy: No way, Knuckles you’re too easily distracted. That’s not a good trait for a distraction. Plus, you're our commander! We kinda need you here.
Silver: How about the rookie? Eggman probably expects us to lead with someone more experienced, so this may throw him off his guard. Silver: How about the rookie? Eggman would never expect it. It may even throw him off a little.
Knuckles: Good idea! You got your orders, rookie. We only have one more day before Eggman's plan is executed, so let's hustle!
The "Distract Eggman" mission is displayed for Buddy. Buddy fights through enemies to approach Eggman in his Death Egg Robot.
Eggman: You're that kid from the resistance. Hmm, couldn't sit around waiting to die, so you just had to go and do something, huh? Eggman: Aren’t you that new kid from the resistance? What’s the matter, couldn't wait one more day to die? Wasn’t soon enough for you?
Eggman: Fine, fine. I'll play with you.
The stage is cleared by surviving a fight against the Death Egg Robot for a certain amount of time.

Sonic: I'm almost at the Space Port. How's the distraction going? Sonic: I'm almost at the Space Port. How's Buddy doing with the distraction? Sonic: I'm almost at the Space Port. How's your buddy doing with the distraction?[note 74]
Knuckles: So far so good. The rookie has Eggman completely engaged. Knuckles: So far so good. We might have to stop using the nickname "rookie" if the kid keeps this up.
Tails: Next up, we've got to get to the computers at the Space Port and shut down the Death Egg's weaponry system. Tails: Next, we've got to get to the computers at the Space Port and shut down the Death Egg's weapons system.

[Prison Satellite] Classic Sonic gets a communication from Rouge, after infiltrating the prison satellite.
Rouge: The Death Egg's weaponry system has been disabled! You can make your way inside now! Rouge: The Death Egg's weaponry systems are down! Now’s your chance! Move!
Tails: Yeah! Destroy the Death Egg, and cut off the energy supply! Tails: Hurry! Just destroy the Death Egg and cut off the power supply!
Vector: You make it sound so easy. Taking down something that big is still a tall order. Vector: You’re making it sound like a walk in the park. This is a Death Egg!
Tails: No problem. The other Sonic can pull it off! Tails: Don’t sweat it. Alt Sonic has this under control. Yeah, that’s right, I’m calling him Alt Sonic now. Tails: Don’t sweat it. The other Sonic has this under control.[note 75]
The "Destroy the Death Egg" mission is displayed for Classic Sonic. When Classic Sonic has made a certain amount of progress, a communication from Knuckles will come in.
Knuckles: Good going! Just destroy the core up ahead, and the Death Egg should fall apart! Knuckles: You’re doing great! The core should be just up ahead. Destroy that and the Death Egg will be fried!
The stage is cleared when Classic Sonic gets deep into the Death Egg.
High in the sky, the Death Egg explodes. Resistance fighters at the hideout yell and holler in excitement.
Amy: The mission's a success! Valtron's power will be weaker now! Amy: They did it! Valtron's power should be down to almost nothing!
Eggman fumes as he sits in his Eggmobile at Green Hill.
Eggman: Grr, those resistance pests and their clever little plots. Eggman: Grr, those resistance pests and their clever little plots. They’re like something on your shoe that you can’t wipe off...
Orbot: It appears they have taken our legs right out from under us. Quite impressive, really.
Cubot: The explosion's right over our heads, though. Cubot: I don’t have legs. Neither do you.
Orbot: Don’t remind me, man!
Infinite approaches. The Valtron unit on his chest is noticeably dimmer.
Eggman: Five more hours before the plan is executed. Infinite, let's make a tactical retreat so that we can re-mobilize our forces.
Infinite: By "tactical retreat" you mean, "flee with our tails between our legs." I’m quite displeased about this, Doctor.[note 76]
Infinite and the Death Egg Robot leave the area.

Knuckles: Yeah, we don't have to worry about Valtron anymore. This time we'll smash Eggman into an omelet! Knuckles: Now that Valtron is out of the way, we can finally smash Eggman into an omelet!
Rouge: Hey, don't count your chickens before you smash your eggs![note 77]
Vector: Are these food metaphors becoming redundant?[note 78]
Sonic: Yeah, kind of.[note 78]
Sonic: Rouge is right. While Eggman and Infinite are still around, we can't let our guard down. Sonic: And Rouge is right. The fact that Eggman and Infinite are still around means we can't let our guard down.
Amy: I just want everyone to get home safe, okay?
Knuckles: All right, fine. Everyone get your game face on! The target is Eggman at the Central Tower!
The "All-out Attack" mission is displayed for Sonic. The resistance invades Metropolis in a fleet of flying battleships (taken from Eggman's fleet). Sonic dives off the mothership and invades Metropolis from the air. He comes under fire from anti-aircraft guns. Once he lands, he uses the floating highways that wind around the city to progress.
【STAGE20】 タッグ
[Stage 20] Tag Team
[Metropolis] Sonic spots Eggman and Infinite up ahead.
Eggman: Welcome, Sonic. Eggman: Welcome, Sonic. Glad you could make it to your funeral!
Eggman stands there, with Orbot and Cubot nearby. The Valtron activation sound rings through the air. A jet black tear in space appears.
Sonic: What is that?
Eggman: Har-har... That, my spiky little frenemy, is null space.
Sonic: Null space?
Eggman: It's a little something that Valtron cooked up, a closed-off space where absolutely nothing exists!
Tails: But we destroyed Valtron's power source...
Eggman: Tsk, tsk. I thought that might happen, so I had a back-up power source created under Metropolis. Eggman: Tsk, tsk. Since you ALWAYS destroy the power source of my weapons, I decided to learn from my mistakes. I had a back-up power source created under Metropolis.
Eggman: Good-bye, my nemesis, Sonic. Enjoy all the nothing! Eggman: Good-bye, Sonic, my soon-to-be-eradicated nemesis. Enjoy all the nothing!
Sonic is sucked into the null space, and disappears from view. But just before he disappears, Buddy grabs Sonic's hand.
Sonic: Don't! You'll be sucked in too! Sonic: Buddy! Don't! You'll be sucked in too!
Buddy desperately tries to hold on, but the pull is just too great, and is pulled in as well.
The "Escape the Null Space" mission is displayed for Sonic and Buddy. Buddy floats in a space with absolutely nothing in it.
After Sonic grabs Buddy's hand, the Valtron sound effect can be heard momentarily, and a glow shoots through them.

(We'd like to do this, but only if possible.) The double boost activates, and Buddy and Sonic race through the pitch black space as rays of light. They see a seam in the darkness ahead and burst through it back into the real world. Back in the real world, Eggman's fleet and the resistance fleet are engaged in battle above them. The stage is completed when they reach Eggman.

Eggman is flabbergasted when he sees Sonic and Buddy. Orbot, Cubot, and Infinite are just behind Eggman.
Eggman: What!? It can't be! It's supposed to be impossible to get out of the null space created by Valtron! Eggman: What!? It can't be! It’s impossible to get out of the Valtron’s null space!
Sonic: It might have been impossible alone, but I had my dependable partner with me. Sonic: Maybe by myself, but I had a little help from my friend. Something you wouldn’t understand, since you don’t have any friends!
Eggman: Grr... This doesn't change my plans. Dr. Eggman will still have the last laugh! Eggman: Grr... This changes nothing! Dr. Eggman will still have the last laugh!
Sonic: Maybe he’d have more friends if he didn’t talk about himself in the third person.[note 79]
Eggman retreats.

[Eggman Empire Fortress] Knuckles is communicating urgency to all the resistance fighters via the radio.
Knuckles: There's less than an hour to go before Eggman's plan is executed. Knuckles: We’ve got less than an hour before Eggman’s plan goes down.
Shadow: There's no more time. We have to break into the fortress now.
Silver: Indeed, this is it-- our last opportunity to bring peace back to the world.
Tails: But... when the battle ends, we'll have to part with Sonic-- I mean, this Sonic-- won't we? Tails: But... when the battle ends, we'll have to part with Sonic-- I mean, Alt Sonic-- won't we? Tails: But... when the battle ends, we'll have to part with Sonic-- I mean, this Sonic-- won't we?[note 80]
Amy: Oh... If Valtron is gone, I guess he'll be returned to his dimension. Amy: Yes, if Valtron is gone, I guess he'll be returned to his dimension.
Classic Sonic: ......
Tails: Thank you for helping us, Sonic. I'll never forget fighting alongside you. Tails: Thank you for everything, Alt Sonic. I'll never forget what you did for us. Tails: Thank you for everything, Sonic. I'll never forget what you did for us.[note 80]

Knuckles: Exactly. This is our only chance. Give it everything you got!
The resistance fighters charge into the Eggman Empire fortress and are met with determined defense from Eggman's forces. Sonic, Tails, Classic Sonic, Buddy, Shadow, Silver, Knuckles, and other resistance fighters fight against Chaos, Fake Shadow, Zavok, and others. Knuckles sends enemies flying using his strength, and Shadow sows confusion using Chaos Control. Silver uses his psychic abilities to stop enemies, then Vector, Espio, and Charmy attack and destroy them. Rouge and Amy follow, fighting and providing back-up. Eggman's forces are hard pressed to stem the flow of the resistance. Finally, Sonic clashes with Infinite, with Knuckles and Shadow close behind.
Sonic: Hey, Infinite. It seems like it's been forever! Did you miss me? Sonic: Hey, Infinite. Long time no see! Did you miss me?
Infinite: Fools. I'll crush you all. Infinite: On the contrary. I’ve been looking forward to finishing you and your annoying friends!
The Valtron sound effect rings out, and a large impact sends everyone flying.
Infinite: I trust you're all ready for death? Because here it comes! Infinite: I trust you're all ready for oblivion? If you’re not... oh well.
As Infinite goes into his attack motion, a laser hits him. Macross-style missiles follow quickly afterwards, hitting Infinite. As the smoke clears, Omega can be seen striking a pose. His right arm is an enormous cannon, while his left is a huge (but somewhat superfluous) drill.
Infinite: What!? Who dares!?
As Infinite turns, he sees Omega.[note 81]
Omega: Target reconfirmed. Extermination mode initiated. Omega: Target reconfirmed. Extermination mode initiated. Payback INEVITABLE.
Rouge: Omega! You've joined us!? Rouge: Omega! You've joined us!? Awesome!
After acting surprised, Tails smiles at the new development. Infinite cannot contain his rage at being blind-sided by an unexpected enemy.[note 82]
Infinite: Is there no end to these worms? Infinite: Is there no end to these annoying insects?
Infinite: The resistance will be done. I'll reduce you to ash! Infinite: I will burn your resistance to ashes, and you along with it!
A beam of light shoots upwards into the sky from Infinite's chest, and then a sun appears. The resistance fighters stare agog at the newly created sun.[note 82]
Knuckles: Whoa, you've got to be joking. That's just a trick, right? Knuckles: Whoa, you've got to be kidding. That's just a special effect, right?
Tails: No, it's not! While we're under Valtron's control, it's a part of our reality!
Espio: Unbelievable! What chance do we have against that?
Eggman looks on the scene with glee.
Eggman: The sun will fall upon you, THE END! Your destinies are concluded! Eggman: The sun will fall upon you all. BOOM! THE END! Your pathetic lives are over.
Buddy is looking up at the newly created sun. The pebble that Buddy picked up in front of Eggman's lab starts to pulsate with a blue light, similar to Valtron's. A surprised Tails turns towards Buddy.
Tails: It's resonating! Could it be? A prototype Valtron! Tails: Look at how it reacts. Eggman said something about a prototype Valtron!
Buddy hands the pebble to Tails, and the effect ends.
Tails: It really is. The prototype Valtron only responds to the person who originally activated it. Tails: Whoa, it is. He said the prototype Valtron only reacts to the person who activated it. That must be you, Buddy!
Tails: Your courage and strong wish to save the day are probably what triggered it. Tails: Your courage and heroism are probably what triggered it.
Tails: Just maybe, if you use this, it can make that sun disappear.
Buddy tightly grips the pebble, and stares determined at the sun.
The "Destroy the Man-made Sun" mission is displayed for Buddy. Buddy rushes up Central Tower in order to stop the falling sun.
Tails: It was created by a Valtron, so another Valtron should be able to stop it. Tails: It was created by a Valtron, so in theory another Valtron should be able to stop it.
Shadow: You... What are you trying to do?
Knuckles: Are you crazy!? Whoa, wait! Don't do it, rookie! Knuckles: Are you crazy!? You’re asking him to kill himself! Don't do it, rookie!
Tails: I think it will work...
Eggman: Mwa-hahaha! What can you do against a sun? You're throwing your life away! Eggman: Mwa-hahaha! What can you do against a sun? You will be consumed like a moth to the flame, and for nothing!
The stage ends when Buddy reaches the top of the tower.
Infinite: This is your complete and utter defeat. The final step of the plan is executed. Infinite: Make peace with your fate, because your lives are now over!
Eggman: Mwa-hahaha. Three, two, one, zero! (The scene below unfolds as Eggman counts down.)
Buddy plunges into the sun, with the prototype in his hand.The entire resistance watches breathlessly.
Tails: Please, please work... Tails: Buddy?[note 83]
With a flash, space warps, and the sun is gone.
Knuckles: The sun! It's gone!
Eggman: Wh-What? What just happened!? (Eggman is shocked, and Orbot and Cubot are panicked.)
Buddy pumps his fists.
Shadow: ...Heh. (short laugh) (Shadow closes his eyes, and the corners of his mouth show a slight grin.)
There's a moment of silence as the resistance fighters aren't sure what happened, and then a great cheer erupts. Eggman is shocked when he sees some sparkles fall from Buddy's hand atop the Central Tower
Eggman: That can't be! I thought all the prototypes were disposed of! How did he get one? Eggman: Impossible! I thought all the prototypes were destroyed! How did he get one?
Tails: Looks like a single oversight changed your luck, Doctor. See? This is why I always check and double check... Tails: A costly oversight, Doctor. This is why I always check and double check... as any good scientist would.
Knuckles: C'mon, let's go, everyone! It's our turn for a raging counteroffensive! Knuckles: This is the turning point, guys! Time to press our advantage and kick major butt!

Sonic confronts Infinite.
Infinite: Arrogant runt. Even if Valtron is weakened, you're still no match for me. Infinite: Pathetic little hedgehog. Even with Valtron weakened, I still have enough power to smash you into blue jelly.
Infinite: I'll show you how outclassed you really are!
Sonic: Oh yeah? Prepare to be schooled! Sonic: Oh yeah? Class is in session! Prepare to be schooled!
The "Defeat Infinite" mission is displayed for Sonic.
Over the course of the fight, Infinite's Valtron starts to recover, and his chest glows. (to overstate the fact, we will show a powerful shockwave like effect)
Infinite: You're done for, Sonic. Valtron's energy is recharged.
Infinite: Perish, along with your useless friends!
Buddy swings in on his wire action and readies his/her gadget. (Show that things are really in a bad situation)
Sonic: My friends got me this far, and we're gonna win! Sonic: My friends got me this far, and together we're gonna win!
The boss fight continues. Buddy and Sonic fight as a tag team against Infinite. They finally defeat Infinite.
Infinite: Impossible... I cannot be defeated...

A beam of light shoots from Central Tower, and encompasses Infinite.
Infinite: No, wait! I can still fight!
Eggman: Impressive, Sonic... To think Infinite could lose. Victory will be so much sweeter when I defeat you. Eggman: You never fail to surprise me, Sonic... I didn’t believe Infinite could lose. Victory will be so much sweeter when I defeat you.

Tails: Valtron's signal is heading for the reactor. You need to hurry!
After traveling a certain distance, they get a communication from Amy.
Amy: The reactor is located in the deepest part of the fortress. The defense system is strong, so a regular head-on approach isn't going to work. Amy: The reactor is located in the deepest part of the fortress. It’s heavily defended, so a regular head-on approach isn't going to work.
Sonic: With our combined abilities, we'll get through. Don't worry! Sonic: We'll get through if we work together. Don't worry!
Buddy and Sonic get farther and farther into the fortress. The run down the main shaft, heading for the deepest part of the base. Around the main shaft, cloned bodies of Infinite can be seen suspended in various experimental pods. At the bottom of the main shaft, there is a vast underground cavern. (Similar to Evangelion's central dogma.) Buddy and Sonic evade the furious enemy attacks to approach and destroy the reactor. Stage complete. They double boost out of the crumbling fortress.

The rumbling sound continues to grow as a huge Death Egg Robot appears with Eggman in the control seat.
Eggman: Gotcha! The fortress reactor was just a decoy. A true winner always keeps his trump card hidden until the end.
The communicator starts broadcasting screams and yells.
Vector: Sonic, what's going on? There aren't less enemies! There's MORE!
Amy: How could there be so many?
Rouge: Confirmed sightings indicate Shadow, Metal Sonic, Zavok, Chaos, Infinite... Thousands of them! (Voice only, so actual visuals will not be shown.)
ALT: Confirmed sightings indicate Shadow, Metal Sonic, Zavok, Chaos, Mephiles, and Infinite... Thousands of them!
Sonic glares at Eggman.
Sonic: What have you done!?
Eggman: Mwa-hahaha! I merely incorporated Valtron into this Death Egg Robot.
Tails: But... That means Valtron no longer has a vulnerable energy supply. It's an invulnerable Valtron…?
Eggman: A good deduction, Tails. This Death Egg Robot has... No, I have surpassed Infinite to become the complete and ultimate form.
Sonic, Classic Sonic, and Buddy stand before the huge Death Egg Robot.
Sonic: You always get ahead of yourself, Eggman. Your plan hasn't hatched yet. And it won't! Sonic: Your plan will end like all your plans do: with you sitting in a pile of busted robot parts wondering how you failed sooooo badly. Sonic: Your plan will end like all your plans do: with you sitting in a pile of busted robot parts wondering how you failed sooooo badly. Let's get them.
The three charge toward Eggman.
The "Defeat Eggman" mission is displayed. Classic Sonic, Sonic, and Buddy all fight the huge Death Egg Robot. Buddy fights first, then changes with Classic Sonic. After Classic Sonic, it's Sonic's fight.
Vector: Looking good, rookie! You've come a long way!
Amy: You can do it!
Knuckles: Yeah! Beat that Eggman!
The primary characters' cheers can be heard amidst a swell of voices.
Resistance (Vector & Friends): "Go, rookie!"
"You've got this!"
"Smash that egg!"
"Go, rookie!"
"You've got this!"
"Smash that egg!"[note 86]
Resistance (others): "Sonic! Sonic! Sonic! Sonic! Sonic!"
At the very end, the three get together for a series of QTE sequences to finally destroy the enormous mech.
The huge Death Egg Robot is destroyed, with the Valtron fragments falling like stars. At the same time, the horde of enemies also disappears. Knuckles raises his fist in the air with a triumphant shout.
Knuckles: All right! We won! I knew we'd do it!
Voices are raised in victory throughout the rubble of Metropolis. The Chaotix Detective Agency team slap each other on the back. Shadow crosses his arms, as if nothing happened. Rouge sees Shadow, and just shrugs. Silver is ecstatic. Knuckles, Shadow, Silver, and the Chaotix members look on as Classic Sonic is seen off by Sonic, Tails, and Buddy.
Knuckles: I knew YOU’D do it, rookie.[note 87]
Knuckles: You know what, scratch that. You aren’t a rookie no more kid… you’re a HERO.[note 88]
Tails: I guess this is good-bye. Thank you for helping us, Sonic. Tails: I guess this is good-bye. Thank you for helping us, Alt Sonic. It’s been classic. Tails: I guess this is good-bye. Thank you for helping us, Sonic. It’s been classic.[note 80]
Classic Sonic begins to fade out. Tails and Classic Sonic exchange a final handshake. And then, Classic Sonic is gone with a final flash of light.[note 89]
【エピローグ】
[Epilogue: City]
(Inside the base, all the characters are talking to Buddy. Only Sonic is not there. Sonic is outside.)
Knuckles: Finally, and end to this long battle. Everyone can go back to their homes. There is no need for the Resistance. Knuckles: Finally, an end to this endless battle. Everyone can go back home and relax. There’s no need for the Resistance.
Silver: Hold on, there is still a lot we need to do. We're just getting started. Silver: Hold on, there's still a lot we need to do. We're just getting started. Silver: Hold on, there is still a lot we need to do. We're just getting started. Silver: Hold on, there's still a lot we need to do. We're just getting started.
Knuckles: Huh? What, like take a vacation? Walk the planet in search of injustice? Well, I'm not gonna stop you. Knuckles: Huh? What, like take up macramé? Walk the planet in search of injustice? Well, I'm not gonna stop you.
Vector: Case Closed. The first time I saw you guys flubbing around, I had no idea you could all pull this all together and see it to the end. I've changed my mind about you guys. Vector: Case Closed. The first time I saw you all stumbling around, I had no idea you could pull this thing together and see it to the end. I've changed my mind about you guys.
Knuckles: I knew you'd come through, rookie. Well, I guess you're not a rookie any more![note 90]
(Charmy and Espio are behind Vector. Espio crosses his arms and emotes) Charmy gives a thumbs up and a "guts pose" in tune with Vector's dialogue.
Rouge: You did good out there, through all the battles. It's not like you just waited till the last minute to come in an act all cool saving the day.
(Omega reacts to Rouge's comments. Rouge just laughs.)
Shadow: Hmph. (you can tell he's trying to hold back a genuine smile.)
Tails: The battle is over, but we still have to take the world back. Eggman's Empire reaches far across the world, so we're all going to have to keep on fighting against the fabricated reality to restore the world back to it's real state.
Fade to black
<Sonic> (The scene opens to the city at dusk. Sonic seems Buddy off in the distance.)
Sonic: Hey, you're going, too? I was thinking the same thing. Sonic: Hey, you're taking off, too? I was thinking the same thing.
Sonic: You gonna keep moving forward? No matter what, yeah? Heh, you and I aren't so different.
Sonic: See ya later... buddy!
After the most amazing fist-bump, Sonic runs off. Buddy watches Sonic run off, the runs off him/herself and the game ends.
END
