About a year back, SEGA announced plans for a mysterious “Super Game”, which involved “innovative new titles” with an emphasis on a global online community and “IP Utilization”.
Now, thanks to SEGA’s latest annual report, we have some additional details about what this “Super Game” will entail. According to Sega CEO Haruki Satomi the “Super Game” will be a “large scale global title” aimed to release in March 2026. Satomi claims that the Super Game will be “revolutionary”, with a key emphasis on drawing together a large community of streamers and content creators.
One strategy for generating such hit titles is the creation of a ‘Super Game’ – a large-scale global title. We’re currently developing such a game, targeting release by the fiscal year ending March 2026.”
“The ultimate goal in the ‘Super Game’ strategy is to create a game so revolutionary that it attracts far more active users than any of the Group’s games to date. One key to achieving this goal is whether we can draw together a large community, involving not only players but also streamers who stream the game and viewers who watch their videos.
“That kind of community expands and further develops game content, adding value to the game that is unimagined by developers, and sparking a broader movement – which can then draw in even more users and grow the game’s presence dramatically.”
Aside from this “Super Game”, the report also touches on the importance of SEGA’s library of IPs and past titles, explaining that there are plans for more remakes, remasters, reboots, as well as other projects in the works:
To capitalise effectively on our abundant IP assets, including dormant IPs, we will further develop these IPs by means of remakes, remastering, and reboots, etc., as well as offering them to subscription-based services and other forms of monetization across multiple channels
It will be interesting to see what this “Super Game” actually is, as well as any other revivals of past IPs SEGA has in store for the future. Stay tuned for more details as they come.
