Metro:
Fans are still keeping Sega’s classic console alive, with a 2D shooter that’s one of the most technically advanced on the Dreamcast.
No, you read that right: this is a new Dreamcast game. Despite Sega’s final home console having been discontinued in 2001, fans and indie developers have been making games for it ever since. The last time we reviewed one it was Gun Lord in 2012, but there still seems no end to the fascination with the format and we very much doubt this will be the last one. And hurrah for that.
HG: Had you told us fourteen years ago that we’d be playing a brand new Dreamcast game in the year 2015, we would’ve looked at you like you were crazy. And yet, here we are… fourteen years after the Dreamcast’s death, in 2015, reviewing a brand new game for Sega’s last console. It’s a strange, strange world.
It feels a bit strange writing this, but as of today the Dreamcast has a new game.
Ghost Blade is due out at the end of this month and has had its last pre-launch trailer released today.
