Sega cancels Super Game concept, focusing on sequels, remakes, and reboots

Oh no?

Sega has cancelled its vague Super Game notion, instead focusing on sequels, remakes, and reboots.

The news comes by way of the company’s financials, which states that Sega “[d]ecided to cancel Super Game” and did not incur any additional costs through the cancellation.

We didn’t know much about what Super Game actually was beyond a vague, games as a service description (that was also rumoured to include NFTs at one point).

“It is a natural extension for the future of gaming that it will expand to involve new areas such as cloud gaming and NFT,” Sega’s Masayoshi Kikuchi said back in 2022 as part of a translated segment.

“We are also developing SuperGame from the perspective of how far different games can be connected to each other.”

Instead, Sega will focus on tried and true franchises, with Stranger Than Heaven coming out this year, and games like Persona 4 Revival, Crazy Taxi, Golden Axe, Jet Set Radio, and an Alien Isolation sequel all on the horizon.
