After first being teased back in December 2023, SEGA have finally showcased the next Crazy Taxi title at this year’s Xbox Games Showcase. Now called Crazy Taxi: World Tour, this new entry in the series puts you in control Axel as he travels around the world in tracking down a nefarious thief who has stolen his beloved taxi. Check out the reveal trailer below:
In more disappointing news, the Steam store page for the game confirms that generative AI was used in the development of the game:
At SEGA Corporation, we utilize generative AI as a support tool for developers, aiming to provide better content to our users and enable developers to focus more on creative tasks.
We have used such generative AI support tools during development of Crazy Taxi: World Tour. No AI was used in reference to the performers in the game.
Crazy Taxi: World Tour is coming to Xbox Series X|S, PC, PS5 and Switch 2 at some point in 2027. Please do not support developments that use generative AI as the use of AI is damaging to the environment, AI models steal artwork from living human beings, and it also puts real artists out of work.
Studio MDHR have revealed they are developing a retro throwback Cuphead game called Mighty Cuphead Adventure. What’s really interesting is that the lead platform for the game is the SEGA Master System.
A physical Master System version will also release in the future. You can check out the reveal trailer below:
Mighty Cuphead Adventure will release on SEGA Master System, PC and “modern consoles” at some point in the future. There is no release date at the time of writing and the game is still in active development.
SEGA have revealed a new indie Sonic title is in development for PC called Sonic Pico Park.
Developed by Tecopark, Sonic Pico Park is essentially a sequel to Tecopark’s own Pico Park 1 and 2. Sonic Pico Park is a co-operative multiplayer platform game where you have to solve puzzles with up to 3 friends. You can check out the reveal trailer below:
Along with the announcement of Sonic Pico Park, the classic edition of Pico Park is now available for free through Steam. Pico Park 1 & 2 are also discounted on Steam.
Sonic Pico Park has no set release date at the time of writing, but the game is set for release on PC. There is also no word on whether the game will land on other platforms.
The Creative Assembly have formally announced their sequel to 2014’s Alien Isolation.
Alien Isolation 2 was originally teased back in April 2026, but a new trailer showcased at Summer Games Fest 2026 reveals the game proper and also confirms the game will release on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, Switch 2 and PC. You can watch the trailer below:
There is currently no release date set for Alien Isolation 2 at the time of writing.
New Virtua Fighter Project finally has a proper title in the form of Virtua Fighter Crossroads. Revealed at Summer Games Fest 2026, Virtua Fighter Crossroads is being developed by RGG Studio and features and extensive single player story mode with 4 protagonists. One of them is Cielo who is highlighted in the latest trailer:
Along with the new trailer we also get confirmation of the return of Pai Chan.
Virtua Fighter Crossroads is still in active development but is scheduled for release in 2027. No target platforms have been revealed at the time of writing.
Sonic Racing CrossWorlds will continue with a 2nd year of DLC that includes a new circuit based on City Escape that has now been invaded by Godzilla himself.
But that’s not all, because a 2nd DLC pack adds Evangelion characters to CrossWorlds. Rei Ayanami and Asuka Langley Soryu appear as playable racers, while Eva Unit-01 appears as a giant on-track obstacle.
You can check out the reveal trailer for Season Pass Two below:
There is currently no release date for any season two content, but the remaining season one content will release in July 2026 (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles) and October 2026 (Avatar Legends).
Sonic Racing CrossWorlds is out now on Switch, Switch 2, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S and PC.
Stranger Than Heaven was showcased at Summer Games Fest 2026 with a brand new trailer that reveals SEGA have licensed the likeness of another dead celebrity in the form of Tupac Shakur.
The game had already confirmed the use of Bunta Sugawara’s likeness, but what’s especially disappointing about this use of Tupac’s likeness is that it was arranged with his “estate”. Tupac’s “estate” is owned by Tom Whalley who is not related to Tupac in anyway. Whalley is actually being sued Sekyiwa Shakur – Tupac’s actual living sister.
Stranger Than Heaven is being developed by RGG Studio and it launches on the 15th of January 2027 for PS5, Xbox Series X|S and PC. I would recommend not supporting this release if you don’t want to inadvertently send royalties to a rich guy who seized Tupac’s estate after the passing of Tupac’s mother.
