Steve Lycett from Sumo Digital has confirmed a delay on the 3DS, PS Vita and PC versions of Sonic & All-Stars Racing: Transformed. SEGA had originally slated the release for November 16th but Lycett has said:
“Given we’re still working on it, 16th November UK release is unlikely. I think SEGA either have or are due to announce the handheld dates over here, they’re slightly later than the home console versions.”
So sad times if you wanted to get those versions on November 16th. More on this story when SEGA decide to announce the corrected dates.
Eurogamer have uploaded the full developer session for Total War: Rome 2 on YouTube. Presented by Jamie Russell, the session takes “an entertaining look at the development of Rome 2”. Watch the session below:
The previously announced DLC content for Hell Yeah! Wrath of the Dead Rabbit is now available to purchase.
The Pimp My Rabbit pack includes 50 new masks, 11 driller skins for Ash’s jet pack driller, and classic SEGA franchise and character skins for $2.99 / £1.99 / €2.49 / 240MSP / AUD$4.25. Also available is the Virtual Rabbit Missions which includes an additional 50+ missions for $4.99 / £3.69 / €4.49 / 400MSP / AUD$7.75.
Viking: Battle for Asgard is finally available on PC thanks to the porting work of Hardlight Studio. The original game launched on X-Box 360 and PS3 back in 2008 and was developed by The Creative Assembly.
The game currently costs £9.99 on the Steam Store.
October 24th marks the release of 2 DLC packs for Hell Yeah! Wrath of the Dead Rabbit.
The first is the ‘Pimp My Rabbit pack’ (240MSP/£1.99). This adds over 50 masks for Ash and 11 driller skins which reference past SEGA franchises like Jet Set Radio, Super Monkey Ball, Shinobi and Crazy Taxi.
The second pack is titled ‘The Virtual Rabbit Missions’ (400MSP/£3.69) and it adds 50 new challenges for an additional 3 hours of gameplay.
Crazy Taxi us now available to download on iOS devices, but what’s more interesting is that the original Bad Religion/The Offspring soundtrack is now back in the game! The original soundtrack was previously missing from recent releases on XBLA/PSN/Steam as well as the PSP re-release Crazy Taxi: Fare Wars.
The game is currently priced at £2.99 on the UK app store. Now SEGA have reacquired the rights for the original soundtrack perhaps they can release a patch for the XBLA/PSN versions so we can all enjoy it? Here’s hoping!
SEGA’s Hardlight Studio has revealed that Viking: Battle for Asgard is being released on Steam next week.
Viking was originally released for X-Box 360 and PS3 back in 2008 and developed by The Creative Assembly. The game has been ported by Hardlight Studio which is a newly SEGA aquired studio based in Solihull, West Midlands UK.
Hardlight are also working on a new version of Sonic Jump for mobile devices.
In case you haven’t been informed, ‘Wreck-It Ralph’ is a new animated movie from Disney which pays homage to video games. The protoganist from the film is Ralph; a video game villain who gets sick of being the villain and decides to leave his game for pastures new.
In possibly one of the most left field announcements SEGA have ever made, Ralph is now appearing as a playable character in Sonic & SEGA All-Stars Racing Transformed.
Also revealed is that Roger Craig Smith will voice a Sonic cameo in the Disney film as well. So that’s 2 SEGA characters now featured in ‘Wreck-It Ralph’ as Dr. Eggman also features in a Villains Anonymous meeting.
Sonic & SEGA All-Stars Racing Transformed will be released 20/11/2012 in North America. No words on other worldwide release dates at this time.
NiGHTS into Dreams…, the much-loved SEGA Saturn high-score flying game is being re-released for X-Box Live Arcade, Playstation Network and PC download.

The original Saturn version is also included.
At yesterday’s Summer of Sonic event, Steve Lycett revealed the inclusion of NiGHTS and Reala from NiGHTS into Dreams as playable characters in Sonic & SEGA All-Star Racing Transformed. Both characters take the form of vehicles with a Nightopian and a Nightmaren riding on their backs.
