Sega has announced plans to re-release several of their classic games on the Nintendo Switch beginning this Summer under the “Sega Ages” banner.
Sega has big plans for the Sega Ages initiative, and they’ll kick things off with an initial slate of five games from their classic catalog. Developed by M2, the games available to download this Summer include Phantasy Star (Master System), Alex Kidd in Miracle World (Master System), Thunder Force IV (Genesis), Sonic the Hedgehog (Genesis), and Gain Ground (Arcade).
According to Sega, games selected for the Sega Ages initiative will “stay true to their original forms” while also including “new features that bring a refreshing twist to these classic titles’ gameplay.” And if this first batch of Sega Ages titles does well, we can likely expect more retro re-releases from the publisher to appear on the Switch eShop.
