SEGA has spoken a little more about their upcoming “super game” which the company president says is targeted to launch by the fiscal year ending March 2026. The ultimate goal of the “super game” is to create something that has not been created before in the medium of video games and is therefore considered revolutionary. There have been a few revolutionary video games in the past such as Nintendo’s Super Mario 64, Valve’s Half Life and Rockstar Games, Grand Theft Auto III. Here’s what SEGA had to say:
“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.”
