Sonic X: The Final Chapter - Part 1 will not be hitting theaters in 3D this year, as Fox has not quite started converting the film to be in 3D, so the film will just be in regular and IMAX theaters by November 15, 2013, the first Sonic film since Sonic X: Return to Soleanna in 2010, that will not be in 3D theaters. The first film being Sonic X: The Final Stand was released in 3D theaters nationwide on May 13, 2011. Also a spin-off Shadow the Hedgehog was also released in 3D on June 29, 2012.

Fox admits that they are having too much time trying to made the film to be filmed in 3D, but it will take up to a year to release the film in 3D. They even dont want to delay the film's release.

Deathly Hallows - Part 2 is released in 3D on July 15, 2011. As for The Final Rush - Part 2, it was also released in 3D theaters on July 8, 2011. Both films are the first in the seperated blockbuster franchise to be released in 3D.

Sonic X: The Final Chapter - Part 2 will still be released in 3D as planned for Fox on July 25, 2014, and hopes they could finish on time during the film's theatrical release. It will also be in regular and IMAX 3D theaters the same day. Rebecca Black, Miranda Cosgrove, Joe Jonas, Taylor Lautner, Ben Linkin and Cody Simpson are set to reprise their roles for both parts.
