Water Palace (ウォーターパレス, U~ōtāparesu^?) is the sixth Stage in the Nintendo 3DS version of Sonic Generations. It represents Sonic Rush and is the first Stage of the Modern era in the game.

Description

Act 1

Water Palace Act 1 is mostly water, with some parse land parts around it. In terms of gimmicks, this Act includes the water cannons seen in Pirates' Island, Underwater Mines, and the water pumps from the original Water Palace in Sonic Rush (although those must be activated with a Switch in this game). It also introduces a new bubble cannon gimmick that allows the player to produce bubbles that Classic Sonic can bounce on once in order to reach new paths (much like Balloons).

Towards the end of the Act, the player will enter an underwater passageway. Along this passageway, a giant Egg Diver in the background will follow Classic Sonic around while ramming the walls in order to bring down debris that can damage Classic Sonic. When the giant Egg Diver finally breaks through the walls however, the player can attack it and destroy it, thereby opening up for the passage leading to the Goal Plate.

Act 2

Water Palace Act 2 plays out much like the original Zone in Sonic Rush. This Act features water slides for Modern Sonic to slide down along, Underwater Mines, and wooden Containers that the player can break through with the Stomp in order to proceed. The Act also features various water sections that Modern Sonic can run across with the Boost in order to reach the routes above the water sections.

Trivia

• Water Palace is the only level to appear in Sonic Generations that was exclusive to a handheld title.
• While Act 1 seems to based off of only the first act of the original level, Act 2 is based off both acts from the original level.
• Act 1 features the small propellers from Hydrocity Zone.
• In the "Item Collector" mission, Modern Sonic goes through the palace backwards.
• After Modern Sonic exits the water slides, he starts "surfing" on the water. This is a reference to the Wii and PS2 versions of Sonic Unleashed.
• In the celling of the entrance in Act 2, there are five extra life item boxes hidden. Modern Sonic must get to the top of the first loop and then jump and boost to reach them.
  • On a similar note, there are three ring boxes and an extra life item box under a water slide. Modern Sonic must jump before getting inside the water slide so he can fall under it.
• This level closely resembles the Greek island of Santorini.
