In 2021, Sega published an annual report touting the strength of its business and a new "priority strategy" for the coming five years: the creation of a "Super Game," which would "stand head and shoulders above normal games." The plan, at the time, was for that game with global appeal to launch by March 2026. This week, Sega announced it was canceled.
And not just canceled—canceled as part of a striking decision to "lower the priority of F2P" in its future plans, with some 100 developers already transferred away to work on "Full Game" development—the old-fashioned kind you pay for up front and then own.
