Is Emerl the fourth playable character in Sonic x Shadow Generations?
At Anime Expo 2024, attendees got their first look at Sonic x Shadow Generations: Dark Beginnings, a new animated prelude to the upcoming game. Sega only offered a short trailer for the animated special, but it had a lot for fans to be excited about. The trailer begins with Shadow the Hedgehog lamenting his inability to cure Maria Robotnik of her terminal illness.
For those unfamiliar with Emerl, the character debuted in Sonic Battle, a title originally released on Game Boy Advance back in 2003. In that game, Emerl is revealed to be an ancient robot created more than 4,000 years ago. The robot started out as a horrible instrument of destruction, but Gerald Robotnik gave it a soul based on that of Maria. Decades later, it was rediscovered by Ivo"Eggman" Robotnik, and it ended up befriending Sonic.
At this time, we don't know why Emerl is back, but his presence in the Dark Beginnings anime is pretty surprising! The character has been referenced only a few times over the last two decades, but has been largely forgotten since Sonic Battle. However, one theory starting to circulate on social media is that Emerl could be the fourth playable character Sega has been teasing for Sonic x Shadow Generations.
