If the surprise announcement that Sonic Lost World was finding its way to PC wasn’t exciting enough then you’ll be pleased to know that SEGA are also planning to release more of their games on PC “in the coming months and years”.
John Clark, VP of Commercial Publishing for SEGA Europe has said, “This is the latest in a string of high quality PC ports of past SEGA titles that we will be building on in the coming months and years.” SEGA seems to have its sights set on expanding its business in the PC gaming category which makes sense when you remember that the PC release of Valkyria Chronicles became a bit of a surprise hit for SEGA.
There is currently no word on what games will be making their way to PC but hopefully it means more of SEGA’s console exclusives like Resonance of Fate, Sonic Colours and Vanquish get a wider release.
Bandai Namco, Capcom and SEGA team up once again for another edition of Project X Zone! The sequel to the 3DS crossover RPG will be making its way west in the Autumn of this year. The game now features Resident Evil characters, Mega Man characters, Soulcalibur characters and Yakuza characters (our personal favourites). You can see Kiryu and Majima in action in the above screenshot. You can also check out the Western reveal trailer by clicking below:
In our quest for social media dominance we’ve only gone and opened a Tumblr! We’re big fans of Tumblr and seeing blogs like Animated Screenshots has inspired us to create a similar wall of animated, video game glee using SEGA games.
If you want images and animated GIFs of various SEGA classics littered across your Tumblr homepage then you can do no wrong by subscribing to the SEGADriven Tumblr and we’ll make sure that happen for you.
Our merchandise section gets another update! This time we’ve decided to feature some SEGA-orientated books. The following books have now been added:

– Push Start: The Art of Video Games
– SEGA Mega Drive/Genesis: Collected Works
– Sonic Generations: Bradygames Official Strategy Guide

This week we will be putting out a new original video on our YouTube Channel everyday. The first video we have for you is a look at SEGA’s presence at the Eurogamer Expo that took place from September 26th to 29th 2013:
SEGA have dropped a lawsuit on THQ over money they were owed from Steam pre-orders of Company of Heroes 2.
There were 20,755 pre-orders for Company of Heroes 2 registered through Steam from September 2012 to 24th January 2013. This generated revenue of $1,345,301.29 with Valve taking a 30% cut of those sales. This left THQ and Relic Entertainment with 70% which amounts to around $941,000.
SEGA claims it’s owned $508,877.85 from those pre-orders as Valve paid THQ after 19th December 2012, the day it filed for bankruptcy protection.
SEGA will be demoing the following games at this year’s E3:
Sonic: Lost World (Wii-U, 3DS)
Castle of Illusion Starring Mickey Mouse (XBLA, PSN, PC)
Company of Heroes 2 (PC)
Total War: Rome II (PC)
The Cave (mobile)
