Sega, a company well-known for titles like Persona, Like a Dragon, Sonic the Hedgehog, and others, has provided a quick update on its ambitious “Super Game,” which is anticipated to be completed by 2026. Few details about the project’s scope, composition, or Sega IP were provided when it was first revealed in 2021.
Nevertheless, Sega has released several games from its well-known IPs this year. While fans of Like a Dragon received the 2014 spinoff remake, Like a Dragon: Ishin, and are looking forward to another spinoff, Like a Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name, featuring franchise icon Kazuma Kiryu, scheduled for release on November 9, fans of Sonic games enjoyed Sonic Origins Plus and Sonic Superstars.
In the middle of all these current projects, Sega is still working diligently on creating their mysterious and grandiose “Super Game.” Shuji Utsumi, one of Sega’s COOs, provided a brief update on the Super Game’s development lately, according to an annual report. As the project enters the production phase, Utsumi reaffirmed that everything is on track and that a 2026 release date is still planned. He also stated that the game aims to include the “entire gaming ecosystem,” which includes viewers and streamers in addition to players.
The specifics of this Super Game are still unknown despite this most recent update. What is evident, though, is the significant sum of money Sega is putting into this project. When the game was first mentioned in 2021, Sega considered spending an incredible amount of money—more than $800 million—on its production. It will be interesting to see if Sega sticks to this spending plan or if they are thinking of investing even more in the Super Bowl in two years. Moreover, it’s yet unknown which of Sega’s cherished properties and characters the company plans to include in this community-driven online platform experience. If that is the plan, then the idea of combining characters like Sonic and Kazuma Kiryu begs the issue of whether it can work.
Since Utsumi suggests that Sega’s Super Game has just recently gone into full development, fans of the publisher may have to wait patiently for additional details regarding the genre, gameplay, and possible inclusions of Sega IPs in the game. Sega might reveal the project in its entirety around 2025 if the 2026 delivery date proceeds as planned.
