Giuseppe Nelva of Dualshockers.com writes an open letter to Sega, discussing the ways they (and other publishers) could use to bring to the fans niche but high-quality games like Valkyria Chronicles III.
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."
Shame about Creative Assembly, they should have just been allowed to do an Alien Isolation sequel.
It was that garbage coh 3 that did them in only a special team can make a sequel worse in every way even though it was a 10 year gap and the same era.
Two Point Studios and Sports Interactive probably run on a shoe string budget so that fits into SEGA better lol
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.
I agree. I think this is the best method. They should highly consider this route if they are worried about risks. Consumers will eventually get fed up with all the shooters.
Yeah, There are a few publishers such as xseed games willing to publish titles like this if they could only get the licences.
Forward this to Namco and Nintendo of America as well. There is no reason that most games that come out in Japan shouldn't make it to stateside.
It's true, Valkyria III is superior to II in practically every way. Sucks it might not make the swim. =/
Great article Abriael!!!!
It is too bad that Sega at least isn't letting another publisher pick it up... :(
