However, they are interrupted by Eggman and battle his Egg Dragoon. Afterwards, Sonic and Chip reach EggmanLand with the help of Tails' Tornado bi-plane and get to the final temple. However, due to being released prematurely, Chip lost his memory and Dark Gaia was broken apart. The Gaias go through of cycle of the Dark breaking the planet and the Light restoring it. While restoring the sixth continent in Adabat, Chip regains his memory and reveals that he is actually Light Gaia, the opposite of Dark Gaia. In order to fix the planet, Sonic must find shrines (known as the Temple of Gaia) to reawaken the Chaos Emerald's positive energy and with their power, they will restore a piece of the planet back to surface. Feeling remorse that he may have caused the creature's amnesia, Sonic decides that he must find someone who knows his new friend, and put the planet back together with the help of Tails, Amy, and Professor Pickle.

Sonic then falls toward the broken planet, and meets a small creature who has lost his memory. This causes a beast to awaken from the center of the planet.Įggman's machine, however, caused some unintended side effects: The chaos emeralds are changed somehow, and they turn Sonic into a Werehog. Eggman lures Super Sonic into a chamber which rips the Chaos Emeralds from him and harnesses their power to break the world apart. With his creation destroyed, Eggman flees with Super Sonic pursuing. Using one of his robots, Eggman is eventually able to capture Sonic, only to have the robot destroyed as Sonic turns super. The story starts as Eggman's battle fleet is in orbit around Earth, and Sonic goes to stop him. This was the last Sonic the Hedgehog game released for the PlayStation 2 in Western territories (in Japan this title goes to Sonic Riders). As this suggests, Sonic Unleashed is a much faster game than its predecessors, being a mixture of 2D and 3D gameplay with the boost mechanic which debuted in Sonic Rush. Unleashed debuted with a rendering system dubbed by Sonic Team as the " Hedgehog Engine", designed specifically to handle the drawing of 3D geometry and environments in a fast-paced setting. Sonic Unleashed sees the hedgehog hindered by a new "Werehog" form at night, and travels to both return to his normal form and stop Dr. It was launched for the Xbox 360, Wii, PlayStation 2, and PlayStation 3 as a reformed and reworked take on the Sonic franchise, likely to counter criticism of the earlier 2006 Sonic the Hedgehog game. Sonic Unleashed, called Sonic World Adventure (ソニック ワールドアドベンチャー) in Japan, is a video game released as part of the the Sonic the Hedgehog series in late 2008.
