SEGA may be planning on launching a major overhaul of its Sonic The Hedgehog series in 2014.
SEGA has announced Fearless: Year of Shadow, a campaign that celebrates Sonic the Hedgehog and his brooding acquaintance, Shadow.
GamesIndustry.biz writes: "Relic is best known for the Company of Heroes and Dawn of War games, and recently developed the new Age of Empires for Microsoft. Relic will transition to an independent studio and will no-longer be part of the Sega group of studios.
The majority of the 240 job cuts are across Creative Assembly and Sega Europe, while there will be a ‘small number’ cut from Sega HARDLight. There was no mention of other Sega UK studios, including Two Point Studios and Sports Interactive."
Sega had such a turbulent existence from the mid-90s to when they dropped out of console manufacturing entirely in 2001, it’s understandable if you’ve never heard of the Genesis Nomad.
Wacth it be dumbed down and be really, REALLY, childish...pushing old school Sonic fans out
I just have a feeling thats what they're going to do, reboots have never went well this gen
Just make Sonic Adventure 3
How many times will Sega reboot this dead franchise?
Sonic Generations on PS3 in 3D was actually a blast to play.
I thought everything's been some kind of reboot since Sonic Adventure
