One of the biggest announcements from The Game Awards this past week was SEGA’s reveal of multiple IP revivals. Jet Set Radio, Crazy Taxi, Golden Axe, Shinobi and Streets of Rage were all confirmed to…
I think I saw some co-op in the Golden Axe. If they lean into the multiplayer I could see it being good fun as a co-op soulslike without the oppressive grimdark atmosphere that tends to define the genre.
Shinobi looks cool, but there are enough amazing pixel-art platformers out there already.
No interest in Streets of Rage.
Crazy Taxi looks like Crazy Taxi. Which is neat but I don’t really have nostalgia for that.
I’m mostly disappointed they missed how awesome Armored Core 6 was and didn’t jump onto that bandwagon with a new Virtual On game.

PS2 Shinobi was great. They should just update that with new levels and better graphics.
I’m holding out for a Kid Chameleon game, though.
Virtual On! How I miss that game. I saw it in an arcade and it brought back so many memories 💖
