SEGA Europe's official Twitter account has teased that a "huge announcement" is happening at the company's SEGA FES event in Tokyo tomorrow (that's the early hours of the morning for us here in Europe). Included is a picture of the show's logo, which features Sonic the Hedgehog, but there's no way of knowing whether the announcement will relate to the SEGA mascot.
If it is about Sonic, then let's hope it's news that they're killing him off once and for all. Maybe we'll get a video of Kazuma Kiryu kicking him to bits. Do we dare to dream?
Okay, calm down, we're just joking. Obviously. This announcement could be about anything, but we doubt it'll be Japan-centric since this is being teased on Western social media accounts. There'll be plenty of people wishing for a Shunmue HD collection, but we'll just have to wait and see.
What would you like to see from SEGA? Be disappointed when a new Sonic Boom game is inexplicably announced in the comments section below.

Sonic Mania 2 announcement. Just sayin'.
Jet Set Radio 3, here we come!
Streets of Rage 4, it’s happening people. Probably not :/
Ah, wouldn’t it be awesome if it was an announcement that they will localize that Fist of the North Star game? That would be great.
The 3DS Sonic Boom games, especially the second one, were actually pretty damn good. XD
Anyway, does this necessarily need to be a GAME announcement? That's what I'm wondering.
Of course it could just be, dunno, Space Channel 5 or something.
The Shenmue collection would indeed be ideal for me, but I won't get my hopes up.
Can’t wait for the Sonic Boom PS4 port.
New Shinobi?
Yakuza Kiwami 3,4,5 coming?
@KratosMD You know what, that's probably dead on. Forgot about it and it was looking likely.
Probably about that Sonic Racing game they teased a few weeks back.
Its 100% sonic racing 3
New console
You're all wrong. It's obviously going to be the Dreamcast 2.
Sonic 2006 HD
The now own the rights of Castlevania Bloodlines and it is exclusive to the Analogue Super NT.
Sonic 1, 2, and 3 remastered on ps4
An Outrun collection would be kinda incredible, not that I really expect that to happen
@DerMeister Game Gear 2 to fill the gap with sony pulling out of the handheld market 😊 and yes, it will require 6 AA batteries to function.
I'd happily take an Outrun collection
Unless it's Phantasy Star then I won't be looking forward to it.
Dreamcast II
Super Monkey Ball VR, in first-person
It's a partnership with Square-Enix and Sonic will be a playable character on Final Fantasy XV.
Panzer Dragoon Saga HD, or all of them, Shenmue HD, Streets of Rage 4, Sonic Mania 2 but we'll probably get something less exciting
Sega Mega Classics. 50 games in one. £24.99. lol
It'll be nothing big.
Sonic Racing probably....but I hope it's Shenmue
Skies of Arcadia HD would be a Dream come true .. or Skies of Arcadia ... ahhh wishful thinking
Sonic Boom season 3 will be exclusive to Netflix.
There's an interesting exchange on their Twitter feed which hints at Shenmue HD
@Gremio108 Y'know I actually wouldn't say no to more Super Monkey Ball. I'd be happy with a remaster of the first two. The first was one of my first GameCube games and I was addicted to it!
@mookysam Yeah I think it's one of my most-missed series. It would be great on PS4!
@carlos82 I would pay good money for any of those, but I think Panzer Dragoon Saga coming back would make my year...
People keep guessing Sonic but we just has an event last month for that? Maybe they'll show gameplay for Super Sonic Racing but I'm unsure if a gameplay reveal for an already announced/teased game is a "HUGE announcement", but we'll see.
If I had to guess, Virtua Fighter 6, Yakuza Kiwami 3 or Shenmue remasters. I would also say PSO2 in the west since that would be huge, but also likely impossible at this point.
As long as it's not Microsoft buying them out as was rumoured (though dismissed) on HappyConsoleGamer's channel.
Guys, it's simple; Sega testes waters with going in to co op with third party company about thier retro controllers sometimes ago, it means that they planning to re release mini version of thier console. DreamcastMicro it's coming.
@Gremio108 it's a shame the Saturn/Dreamcast sold so poorly as some of the games Sega were pumping out back then were amazing and who knows what we would have today
Despite my username, I'm rooting for Virtua Fighter 6 and/or re-released Virtua Fighter games on newer systems.
Sonic 1 HD remake and Golden Axe 1 HD remake please.
But honestly I liked Sonic unleashed too, I'd like a remaster of Sonic unleashed.
Or another Nights game, Nights has a huge potential but never managed to properly express it. It would be nice to finally have a good Nights game since it is such an interesting franchise.
But if I can make a wish I just want Sonic 1 and Golden Axe 1 faithful and properly executed HD remakes.
Shenmue 1&2 HD remasters would be awesome and timely.
Also would love a SEGA made (not licenced) Master System 2 mini with a decent and updatable games collection. The same for a Mega Drive, Saturn and Dreamcast minis.
Sega >
It's Shenmue, there's no doubt about it. The dialogue on the Sega Europe Twitter account is cristal clear. Plus the timing is ideal : if they don't announce it now, the "collection" will never be out before the third installment. And it has to.
The only question that remains is : will it be a full remake (à la Shadow of the Colossus) or a simple HD port ? The odds seem definitly in favor of the second option, which is fine by me.
Ryo Hazuki is back, guys !
@Bobobiwan I hope sure. And I too would happily take a simple HD port for now. A remaster some other time, maybe next gen would be cool.
@carlos82 Amazing response from Sega and the community hahaha.
Im hoping for either;
Streets of Rage 4
or
A Sega Saturn Collection!
Street of rage 4.sega colab with vanilla ware.💪💪💪💪.word up son
@themcnoisy
If its once again not the remasters of shenmue,Sega deserve a boycott. Maybe its the official exact date of shenmue 3,although Sega have nothing to do with it.
@gbanas92 That, or a new Outrun!
Knowing how SEGA love to re-release the same set of Megadrive games over and over, it'll probably be a retro collection for VR
@KubaHubaBuba I would be down for that!
Chu Chu Rocket 2
As said above, I'd love a new console from Sega, the only IP from Nintendo that interests me is Pokemon, hence never bothering to own Nintendo hardware.
New sega game gear with a tv setup just to piss off nintendo 🤣
@hi_drnick Oooooo VR. yeah I'm down for that!
I'm down for a new Sonic Racing !
New Virtua Fighter, new Panzer Dragoon, that new Daytona USA ported to consoles, new Virtua Cop and House of the Dead for VR or ds4 motion controls without VR, Shenmue Collection and a partnership with American Laser Games to make new FMV games. That, and partnership with Squareenix to make a good Sonic JRPG with isometric view. I'm sure it's all that.
Its official, its the shenmue hd collection for ps4 !!! This is EPIC !!! Now watch them screw it up by releasing it after shenmue 3,lol !
Oh, and a new Alex Kidd game bundled with that Golden Axe Action Adventure they will for sure present. Right?
Killing Sonic off once and for all.. not a bad idea! Then they can focus on their other games more.
Crikey, imagine if it is the Dreamcast 2? Haha, you never know.
Mega Drive mini.
Looks a lot like they're just going to distribute the atgames 'HD' one. Which is crap.
Shame really. A version of the same quality as the NES/SNES minis would sell so very well.
I want that New all star racing game!
