Sonic the Hedgehog 3 is now in theaters and we already know that a fourth movie is in the works, so fans will be expecting extra footage in the credits to tease the future of the franchise.
Fans who are checking out the movie will likely want to know if they should stick around after the credits for an additional scene. Many movies these days, especially ones that are part of a franchise, will include extra footage at the end to tease future installments or to give audiences some bonus content.
So, do you need to stick around after Sonic 3?
Keep reading to find out if you need to wait for a post-credits scene…
We can confirm that YES, there are multiple scenes in the credits that you should totally stick around to watch as they set up the action for the next movie.
FIRST SCENE: A mid-credits moment!
The first scene in the credits shows Sonic finishing a race and realizing that he’s now in New York as he overshot the finish line. A metal Sonic shows up and Sonic prepares to fight, until he realizes that there is an army of Metal Sonics all around him.
Sonic is saved by a mysterious pink hedgehog holding a yellow and red Piko Piko Hammer. It’s Amy Rose!
Sonic fans were first introduced to her in 1993 on the video game Sonic CD and she’s appeared in nearly every Sonic video game since then.
SECOND SCENE: After the closing credits!
The second scene gives us an update on the fate of Shadow, who seemingly died at the end of the movie.
We learn that he is actually alive and he picks up an Inhibitor Ring that he lost earlier in the film. It seems like Shadow will be returning!
