SEGA has announced SEGA UNIVERSE, an initiative that shines a spotlight on legacy intellectual properties under the concept "NO OLD, STAY GOLD," and introduces various projects celebrating their anniversaries. Details about these projects were not disclosed.

SEGA UNIVERSE｜NO OLD, STAY GOLD

This is the official website of SEGA UNIVERSE. Under the concept “NO OLD, STAY GOLD,” it shines a spotlight on legacy IPs that continue to be loved by fans, and introduces various projects celebrating the anniversary.

Whatever this (merch focused?) deal is, at least thanks to fans we've been able to (relatively recently) enjoy stuff like Sakura Wars & SGGG in English. Nice site though, but their Sega GO/60 anniversary stuff was more extensive in its homage and now most of that material is long gone itself

 

[HerjansEagleFeeder]

OK.... do something? Preferably take notes from Plaion and rerelease Saturn and Dreamcast thanks.

 

[Hudo]

How the fuck can they mention SeGaGaGa and Guardian Heroes but not Phantasy Star (the proper one, not the online one) and Panzer Dragoon? Come on, Sega.

 

[John Bilbo]

I hope it's something good and playable. So far it's just word salad.

 

[RoboFu]

plain already has a 68000 and z80 clone chips for the new Neo geo . They just have to down click the 68000 for a new genesis.

 

[IAmRei]

rent a hero, weird rpg from 90s, if it's made as movie 10 years ago, could be sales boost because of the super hero craze

 

[TheUnicornGuy]

No dragon force?

 

[MrJangles]

What the hell was that about?

 

[ssringo]

That's cool and all but don't ya'll have some games from the last "initiative" you still need to release?

 

[Calverz]

What the hell was that about?

Just some Japanese marketing thing.

Wake me up when they do something in the west thats tangible.

 

[WhamBamThankYouMaam]

What the hell was that about?

The found out about mame and wrappers.

 

[cireza]

Nobody gives a shit. Release a game or shut up, SEGA.

 

[Markio128]

I'm all in for a new Outrun. Make it so.

 

[Duchess]

Ah, I remember a while back how it looked like we were getting a new Golden Axe game. it was shown in the same video as Shinobi:



(at 1:05)

Perhaps it's now been quietly cancelled

 

[Saber]

Seems weak and barebones to me.
Theres way lot more old titles other than the same ones they keep posting/releasing over and over again. Specially Saturn titles.

Perhaps none of this ever existed.

 

[Fake]

 

[Beechos]

Cool looks like segas version of capcoms arcade stadium series.

 

[Dzab]

Please, I need Guardian Heroes on Steam/ps5/switch

 

[John Bilbo]

If this means Treasure is developing something new...

 

[Mengy]

I love Sega, but they have a habit of announcing nice things and then never following up on it.

 

[falconhoof]

I wonder if Hyenas was supposed to be a part of this until it exploded on the launch pad. That game was all about collecting historic SEGA merch IIRC.

 

[March Climber]

Perhaps none of this ever existed.

Monthly reminder that Shinobi is out now and is highly rated

 

[kevboard]

ok... so... like... when will we see news about the new JSR and Crazy Taxi then?

 

[Barakov]

If this means Treasure is developing something new...

 

[Badlucktroll]

how about a new semi powerful streamlined console for the fans to play all their games on

 

[cireza]

Shinobi is a small project by the awesome Lizardcube developers. I was obviously talking about the other, AAA games, and you perfectly understood this.

 

[Esppiral]

Where is my Jet Set Radio Remake?

 

[Hudo]

What the hell was that about?

Not even Sega knows.

 

[roosnam1980]

looks like they are hinting at a gofundme

 

[John Bilbo]

Not even Sega knows.

Vibe posting

 

[Begleiter]

A Sakura Wars collection or a sequel to Sakura Wars 2019 where they make worthwhile combat would be nice. Both would be better, of course.

I got it recently when it was on sale and the game is excellent, listen to this post!

 

[uncreativename]

Where is my Jet Set Radio Remake?

I don't need a remake, but I really hope they show us some more of that new Jet Set Radio game soon!

 

[Dzab]

Well guys, we all are about to be disappointed lol, or it's pretty much what we expected from Sega. Basically just merch and nothing? The tweet says

GOODS: Launch of new official merchandise
EVENT: Hosting events for immersive world experiences
TALK: Providing spaces where fans can gather and share stories

Sega seem to be very adverse to putting out arcade collections. How about another Megadrive collection with mostly the same games again?

 

[Soltype]

If they do a new alien soldier I'm going to die.

 

[K' Dash]

No wonder Nintendo curb stomped them, lol.

 

[Knight of the Round]

I 100% it a few days ago, awesome game. Lizardcube always delivers.

 

[John Bilbo]

 

[John Bilbo]

"New forms" could be ports or remasters.

 

[Alan Silvestro]

I will buy an outrun collection or a remake (arcade and consoles titles).

 

[Dice]

Just let me play Burning Rangers on my Switch 2 you bastards.

 

[DreamcastSkies]

So are they re-releasing these games? I'd love to play Guardian Heroes

 

[RAIDEN1]

So what are they saying about their new Streets of Rage game, where is Golden Axe? Apparently even Eternal Champions was part of the conversation in terms of a revival....

 

[diffusionx]

plain already has a 68000 and z80 clone chips for the new Neo geo . They just have to down click the 68000 for a new genesis.

They were still making Genesis in Brazil until like 3 years ago

 

[Days like these...]

I just want to see a proper turn based Phantasy Star V before I die or a Sonic game as good as Mario Galaxy. None of this push forward to win garbage.

 

[Sooner]

Sega reminds me of the middle-aged man who was popular in high school and a complete waste ever since and is endlessly trying to go back to his "glory" days.

Genesis is Sega's high school.

 

[dgproject]

Persona 2 remakes and Valkyria Chronicles 5, here we go.

and Shenmue 4

Meanwhile at SNK, couple of messy divorces, captured by slavers. Still got it.
