Final Rush

Final Rush is an Action Stage in the game Sonic Adventure 2.

Purpose

Final Rush allows Sonic to sneak outside of the ARK, and it is guarded by GUN Hawks, Beetles and Artificial Chaos. It is full of rails for Sonic to grind from one area to the next. Here is where Sonic battles Shadow the Hedgehog and must defeat him once and for all.

Shadow the Hedgehog

In Shadow the Hedgehog, some ARK levels (Cosmic Fall and The ARK) have floating platforms with grind rails and pipes similar to those of Final Rush. Also, the music for The ARK is a remix of Highway in the Sky, Final Rush's theme. This is proved by the fact that the beginning of the BGM for both Action Stages is the same.

Other versions

Shadow the Hedgehog goes to a different form of Final Rush known as Final Chase. He races into and out of the ARK, and must get to the Eclipse Cannon. A gimmick not in Final Rush is the gravity drums, which allows Shadow to run up them.
