SEGA announced quite a while back that it is working on bringing back some of its classic IPs such as Crazy Taxi, Golden Axe, Jet Set Radio and more. In a new interview SEGA president and COO, Shuji Utsumi, said that he can’t wait to see and hear peoples impressions of the finished products. He stated that the development teams have been working carefully to “retain the essence of the original while adapting it to modern tastes.” Here’s what Mr. Utsumi said about the projects via machine translation.
In June, the new Crazy Taxi title, Crazy Taxi: World Tour, greatly excited Sega fans. In addition to Crazy Taxi, we hear you are also developing new titles based on legacy IPs. How is that progressing?
Utsumi: We are currently developing titles such as “[Title of previous title ]” and “[ Title of previous title],” which we have already announced. I can’t give you any details yet, but I’m very much looking forward to them. I would love for longtime fans to give us their honest opinions. At the same time, I would like people who are unfamiliar with the series to see that “Sega makes games like this too.” We will be making sure to retain the essence of the original while adapting it to modern tastes. We are currently developing titles such as Jet Set Radio and Streets of Rage.
