* ''VideoGame/SonicForces'' and [[WordOfGod official word]] established that the Classic Era visited in ''VideoGame/SonicGenerations'' has become a alternate/split timeline in which ''VideoGame/SonicMania'' takes place, possibly as a result of the time travel that took place in ''Generations''. The new timeline has seemingly the same history as the main timeline up to ''VideoGame/Sonic3AndKnuckles'', and is treated as an [[AlternateUniverse alternate dimension]], with travel between the two being made possible by the combination of the powers of the Phantom Ruby and the Chaos Emeralds.

Initially, ''VideoGame/SonicForces'' and [[WordOfGod official word]] established that the Classic Era visited in ''VideoGame/SonicGenerations'' has become a was an alternate/split timeline in which ''VideoGame/SonicMania'' takes place, possibly as due to a result of the time travel comment made by Tails saying that took place in ''Generations''. The Classic Sonic was "the Sonic from another dimension." This led to the impression of there being a new timeline that has seemingly the same history as the main timeline up to ''VideoGame/Sonic3AndKnuckles'', and is treated as an [[AlternateUniverse alternate dimension]], with travel between the two being made possible by the combination of the powers of the Phantom Ruby and the Chaos Emeralds.Emeralds.
