In a live-action intro, Rick and John briefly recap the last year of The Super Sonic Let's Play, then introduce Sonic Forces, discussing its development, story, characters, and connections to Sonic Mania. In the game itself, Rick chooses to play on the hard difficulty setting, then watches the opening cutscene. He is thrown straight into the first level, Green Hill: Lost Valley. The stage is designed as a tutorial, so Rick completes it fairly easily. In a cutscene, Sonic is defeated by the team of past Sonic villains recruited by Eggman, which is followed by an abrupt six-month time jump, during which Eggman successfully takes over most of the world. After another cutscene, the character creation option is presented, and Rick hands over to Ben. Ben creates a brown cat modeled somewhat after Tonka, and the character is immediately introduced in a cutscene along with Knuckles. Following this, the level select screen is unlocked, and the group enter the game's second stage.
