Sega Forever™ makes time travel* cost-effective, convenient

*Please note that playing games from the #segaforever collection does not technically count as “time travel,” although intense feelings of #nostalgia have been linked to exposure and extended play.
Three decades after it all began, #sega Networks announces a growing collection of classic video games for mobile.
In celebration of a simpler time - an era that came before cool kale, hyper-connectedness, DIY artisanal beer-making, and social media mayhem - #sega Networks Inc. is bringing a growing collection of classic video games from every console era to your mobile device for free. The collection, called #segaforever, is a re-awakening of archetypal gaming, an ode to the deep and diverse #sega catalogue, and the beginning of a retro revolution that will transport players back trough two decades of console gaming.
Each game in the #segaforever lineup is free-to-play, ad-supported, playable offline, and includes added features like cloud saves, controller support, and leaderboards. For players who prefer a pristinely ad-free mobile gaming experience – folks who want to play #sega just like they remember playing in their basement, without interruptions from parents, siblings, or homework – we’ve rolled back the price so each game can be purchased without ads for 2.26 €. As the #segaforever collection expands through months and years, it will include both official emulations and ported games that pan all #sega console eras, each adapted specifically for mobile devices while remaining faithful to the original games.
“Above all else #segaforever is a celebration of #nostalgia. It’s about allowing fans to reconnect with past experiences and share them with family and friends in an accessible and convenient way,“ explains Mike Evans, CMO of SEGA’s Mobile Division in the West. “Join us on a journey of rediscovery as we roll out two decades of classic games free on mobile. Create your own ‘SEGA Forever folder’ and collect your favorite classics. Enjoy moments of #nostalgia on the go, or sync a Bluetooth controller to enjoy a console-like experience in your living room. #segaforever democratizes retro gaming, and seeks to change how the world plays, rediscovers, and shares in classic game experiences.“
The first batch of #segaforever games has been carefully curated, boasting both blockbusters and core fan favorites; The collection will officially kick off tomorrow with five #megadrive / #genesis titles, all of which will be available to download for free on the Google Play Store for #android devices and on the #app Store for iPhone and iPad, where they will be accompanied by iMessage sticker packs:

  • Sonic The Hedgehog, the 1991 household classic that has remained at the forefront of hearts and minds since inception
  • Phantasy Star II, the longtime fan-favourite RPG from 1989 
  • Comix Zone and Kid Chameleon, two American titles developed by SEGA’s in-house studio STI
  • Altered Beast, the original #genesis pack-in title, a beat-em-up set in Ancient Greece that represents a weird and wonderful segment of the #sega catalogue that is ripe for rediscovery 
Following tomorrow’s launch, the #segaforever collection will continue to grow with additional releases coming every two weeks.
