Sonic X Shadow Generations is divided into two halves: Sonic’s story and Shadow’s story. One of the enemies Sonic will have to defeat is the Egg Dragoon. Players can play as titular characters at some point in the game and experience the game from two different points of view. Both Sonic and Shadow must go on adventures, stop baddies, and save the world.

Egg Dragoon is notorious for being a demanding boss to beat; players will need to be quick on their feet to take this foe down. Understanding his attack patterns and stats can also help. However, before going against Egg Dragoon, players must first unlock him.

How To Unlock The Egg Dragoon Boss Fight

Complete Previous Stages And The Challenge Act

Egg Dragoon is one of the toughest bosses you’ll face as Sonic in Sonic X Shadow Generations. As such, he’s a boss that won’t be unlocked until late in the game. He’s the final boss you’ll face you take over the role of Shadow. He appears in the third area. That means you’ll need to complete the first two areas before you can move on and challenge Egg Dragoon.

To complete the first two areas, you’ll need to clear out all stages and bosses leading up to that point. There are a total of six stages between areas one and two. Once you’ve cleared those stages and have beaten the bosses, you’ll move on to the third area. Then, clear Act 1 and 2 of the third area’s stages.

A boss gate will appear, but you’ll have to go back and beat the Challenge Act from each previous area before you can enter. Doing so will reward you with three boss keys, which you can use to unlock the boss gate and the Egg Dragoon fight.

How To Defeat Egg Dragoon

Battle In 3D And 2D To Take Egg Dragoon Down

The Egg Dragoon boss battle comes in three phases, and sometimes, you’ll be fighting him in 2D. Each phase allows us to land some attacks, but you’ll need to be quick about it, as these chances are easily missed. Luckily, Egg Dragoon only requires eight hits to beat him, but that doesn’t mean it’ll be an easy win.

During the first phase, you’ll be fighting him in 3D. He’ll launch a series of attacks in your direction, including ice beams and missiles. To avoid these attacks, simply keep moving around the arena and away from the beams and missiles. Use the ramps to jump up to the rails above the stage, then boost to reach Egg Dragoon. Jump off and launch your attack, aiming at the blue, glowing orb.

The rails have spikes, so make sure to avoid them as you’re boosting toward Egg Dragoon.

After landing an attack, Egg Dragoon switches to phase two, forcing you into a 2D mode. Jump immediately to avoid balls of ice that Egg Dragoon immediately throws at you. Walls will drop around Sonic and start closing in. Use your wall jump to jump out of the enclosure while avoiding ice balls and aiming another attack at Egg Dragoon.

Whether you land your hit or not, you’ll be sent into the third phase. A portal sucks Egg Dragoon and Sonic in, sending them flying through the air. Dodge any incoming missiles. Boost your way to Egg Dragoon to hopefully land another hit.

This phase ends, and you’ll be sent back to the first phase, then into phases two and three again. Continue dodging and attacking. Land eight hits, and you’ll win the fight against Egg Dragoon in Sonic X Shadow Generations.
