=== Character Specific Gameplays ===
==== Sonic & Katie ====
Sonic and Katie's gameplay is a high-speed adventure-style gameplay akin to Sonic's gameplay in the previous Sonic Adventure games and Sonic the Hedgehog (2006). The goal of this gameplay's stages is simple: the player has to get to the goal, which is a large ring. Through these stages, there are enemies to fight, obstacles to avoid, and platforming challenges for the player to complete. Sometimes, there are multiple pathways for the player to choose. Sonic and Katie's abilities include Homing Attack, Roll, Spin-Dash, and a combat system similar to Sonic Frontiers. While the combat system does not play the prominent role it had in Frontiers, it is helpful for defeating enemies that have more health, as well as boss fights.
==== Tails & Ariel ====
Tails and Ariel's gameplay is similar in a few ways to Sonic and Katie's, as it does have the simple goal of reaching the end of the stage and has many of the same enemies and obstacles. However, it mostly revolves around their ability of flight. Often, the stages require the character to fly over a large gap. Flight has a gauge with a ten second timer and if the time runs out, the character will fall. Some gaps have wind paths that an give the character a boost when flight is out. In some areas of the stages, the level design changes and requires the character to get in a vehicle. These vehicles include a plane, a buggy, a mech, and a boat.
