"Fading World" is the level theme to the stage Imperial Tower in Sonic Forces. A fast-paced synthetic dubstep instrumental, it describes the situation in which a virtual sun created by the powers of the Phantom Ruby is falling upon the planet, which must be prevented by the Avatar.

Connection to the game[]

• The sun is falling in the sky beyond / Light is fading from our world / The sun is falling in the sky beyond / And light is fading from our world - Dr. Eggman has summoned a virtual sun to destroy the Resistance, and ultimately to nearly wipe out the world.
• No time, time for reason / Don't show, show them mercy / Go, hard into battle / Show them what you've got now - The Avatar is hard pressed to go to the top of the Imperial Tower to remove the virtual sun and undo Eggman's plan.
• Don't give up until we see the dawn / Together we'll bring back our home / Trust in those you stand beside / Believe that we can win this war - The Resistance is fighting the Eggman Empire, and the Avatar is the only hope they have for survival, let alone victory.

Trivia[]

• Fading World was featured in the Sonic the Hedgehog DJ Style Party Album.
• In the Sonic Frontiers OST, the song "Cyber Space 3-2: Go Slap" seems to reference Fading World in the melody.
