Sega’s in better shape than it’s ever been. Not only is the Japanese company finding success with brand new games like Two Point Hospital, but it’s also got more in the pipeline like the recently announced strategy title HumanKind. Thanks to the resurging popularity of Japanese games in recent years, we’re also seeing more of its homegrown hits reach a wider worldwide audience, from competitive puzzler Puyo Puyo to the entire Yakuza series, which is finally available on PS4. The results are even better thanks to stellar localization work from subsidiary Atlus, who of course also continue its own stylish identity with games like the Persona series.
But while it’s great to see the game company that defined much of my childhood get its groove back, 2019 feels very much like a defining year for Sega to celebrate its past, and it’s one that old-school Sega fanboys like myself have been waiting ages for.
