Sonic Heroes Part 40 covers Grand Metropolis, Power Plant, and Casino Park. Learn strategies for A ranks and beating timed missions.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Level 3: Grand Metropolis
    1. Objective: Get to the Goal Ring within 5 minutes.
  2. 2
    Utilize blue paths for speed; go up them whenever possible.
  3. 3
    Ignore enemies if focusing solely on time; defeat them for points if aiming for a good rank.
  4. 4
    Prioritize upper paths for speed, but use personal shortcuts if found on lower paths.
  5. 5
    Ensure you are Sonic when on blue paths for maximum speed.
  6. 6
    Practice light dashes on the rows of rings at full speed instead of stopping.
  7. 7
    Hold B when hitting rails and light dash the final row of rings near the cars.
  • Level 4: Power Plant
    1. Objective: Get to the Goal Ring within 9 minutes.
    2. Destroy enemies on elevators before they stop to keep them moving.
    3. In the energy storage tank, switch characters strategically (e.g., fly with Tails, then switch to Sonic).
    4. Use a Team Blast at the top of the energy storage tank to quickly defeat enemies.
    5. Avoid pausing when killing enemies.
    6. Achieving an "A" rank requires killing many enemies while staying under the time limit.
  • Level 5: Casino Park
    1. Objective: Get to the Goal Ring within 5 minutes.
    2. Memorize and become familiar with the pinball machines to navigate them efficiently.
    3. Use Tails to fly to switches that are inaccessible from the ground.
  • BINGO Highway
    1. Objective: Get to the Goal Ring within 6 minutes.
    2. Prioritize finishing quickly; do not stop to line up with BINGO cards.
    3. Be aware that pinball tables can be time-consuming.
    4. Be cautious on slides with holes to avoid dying and losing significant time.
    5. Having all three characters is highly beneficial for busting through the final wall to reach the goal ring quickly.
  • Rail Canyon
    1. Objective: Get to the Goal Ring within 5 minutes.
    • Tips
    • For Grand Metropolis, taking the upper path with Sonic is generally quicker than a lower path with Tails.
    • In Grand Metropolis, if there are many enemies near a blue path, consider defeating them for points, but ignore them if speed is the only goal.
    • In Power Plant, if you have achieved "A" ranks on previous levels, getting one here may be simpler.
    • Casino Park is considered a "hard" timed stage due to the pinball machines.
    • BINGO Highway is described as one of the most annoying stages, often resulting in being seconds away from the time limit.
