About Freedom Planet
Freedom Planet is a 2D platform adventure by GalaxyTrail, set in the colourful world of Avalice. A dragon girl named Lilac and her friends are drawn into a war when an alien attack force arrives, and every stage throws insects, giant robots and explosive set pieces at you while you race for the fastest time.
Each heroine plays differently. Lilac whips enemies with her hair, spins like a cyclone and dashes through the air like a comet, while Carol fights with rapid punches and kicks and can summon a motorcycle that rides up walls and ceilings. Stages hide side paths, treasures and crystals for players who explore, five elemental shields reflect specific attacks, and quirky bosses range from towering creatures to rival fighters. Story cutscenes are fully voiced, or you can choose text boxes or skip straight to the action, and bonuses include mini-games, artwork and music.

Freedom Planet began life inspired by 16-bit Sonic, so Sonic x Shadow Generations is a natural next step, pairing a new Shadow campaign with a remastered Sonic Generations. For hand-drawn 2D speed closer to Avalice's style, Sonic Superstars offers new Classic-style zones with local co-op for up to four. To see the 3D side of the series, Sonic Adventure DX follows Sonic and five friends through their own story routes. And if you enjoy hidden paths and tough platforming, Celeste swaps speed runs for a precise mountain climb.
