SRB2 The Past makes use of MIDI music for levels predating Final Demo to present a more authentic experience. If you have no music, please check your music settings to ensure MIDI playback is on. We also recommend MIDI playback use through soundfonts as "Native" will use your system's volume instead of the game's.

SRB2 Mobile is NOT supported. Play on mobile at Sonic's Risk.

Welcome to SRB2 The Past Version 2.0. It's been a long time in development, almost 3 years for just this update alone.

The SRB2 Museum has received an overhaul and now has all new rooms and a proper Badnik Zoo too.

This time around we now cover at least 6 zones!
  • Greenflower
  • Techno Hill
  • Deep Sea
  • Castle Eggman
  • Arid Canyon
  • Red Volcano

We also now have Nights mode (unlockable) and two other new features.

Located in the SRB2 Colosseum, you can find the Boss Rush and Metal's Challenge.

The Boss rush has one track for each era, and an unlockable final track with Every Boss on it.

Metal's Challenge features levels from across SRB2's history as voted upon by the SRB2 Community at large with a few personal selections to round things out. Levels are divided into 4 tiers ranging from easy to Hard. Complete all 4 and you are then granted the privilege to challenge Metal Sonic to his hardest race of all.

Multiplayer modes such as Match, CTF, Circuit, and even Chaos Classic have been brought back into a single package as well. So no more loading up into Construction Zone because you loaded the multiplayer half.

Every multiplayer modes' maps have also been freshly ported and put into their own rotation. Even Dev maps! Every Era is represented!
(Some maps are duplicated for the sake of their specific respective rotation)

There are many unlockables this time around too even including a total of 5 new unlockables characters (1 of which you may know already)

As an extra bonus we also have the CD soundtrack for the SRB2 Christmas Levels as a bonus download.

NEW: bonus character bundle, standalone versions of the unlockable characters are now available.
All 5 are slightly tweaked and a little different from their appearance in SRB2 the past.
Zim standalone also comes with the necessary legacy color Lua script he needs made by FrivolousAqua.

Disclaimer
SRB2 The Past 2.0.x was not designed with multiplayer unlockables in mind. Strange things may happen in the untested environment. You will not be able to take your progress into the next major version (2.1) as it will have changes that accommodate the new feature.

  • X-treme Placeholder Sonic is now multiplayer color compatible
  • Megaman is now multiplayer color compatible
  • Chao's speed now matches Sonic's allowing it to go into its running frames
  • All five characters are Kirby Compatible.
  • X-treme Placeholder Sonic grants Wheel
  • Megaman grants gun
  • Chao grants ball
  • Cinnossu grants Mike
  • Zim grants UFO

Latest reviews

Mainly came here for the v2.1 levels since another modded campaign I previous played was broken.

Was very surprised to see every single map and with all of their old versions in the pack. Not only that, but the old enemy designs were used there as well!? Many of the unlockables were really fun to play too!

Though I wish all of these levels were available in Time Attack someday in a later update. Other than that, this might be one of the best map packs I've played so far!

This Mod is Fantastic! Seeing all the old stuff in 1 mod is really cool! But it does have its flaws. First of all, we don't get the Legacy HUD/Title Card which was kind of annoying, but whatever. But also before you go into a level, you will always see info about the level. This can Get extremely annoying, so I hope that gets removed in The Past v2.1. Also, where's 2.1 Sonic and Tails? But hey, its still pretty cool! It also inspired me to make MRCE The Past (WIP). Outstanding Mod, I must Say!
