New characters that will join the party in version 4.0, to be released in the future. I know some people will say "oh but why don't you add common fighters, like Ken?" the answer is because I find it boring.I always value these "curve balls" more, giving forgotten characters a chance, than adding more characters that do the same thing that another character already does. I've always followed a rule throughout my decades as a game developer: Doing things differently. I've never been attracted to doing something exactly like the original game - I always thought it was a waste of time, and that it would be better to play the original game.I respect those who like it, but originality counts a lot for me

Speaking to The Game Business Mr. Utsumi said he wants SEGA to cover all bases going forward and have software for everyone, “I’d really like to revive that SEGA spirit. Sometime around 2000, even around the 1980s, we were regarded as a very cultural company. If you compare it to the music industry, I believe SEGA brings rock and roll. In the arcade business, we really had a rock and roll mindset and trying to provide new stuff. So nowadays, we want Sega to always be trying something different, while ..."

alfredtdk is porting the Master System version of Golden Axe to Atari's legendary console instead, as that is their "favorite version" of the game (Sega's 8-bit console was incredibly popular in Brazil, and will have been many people's first gaming platform in that region). The game's title is Tarik - A Golden Axe Story."I love the Master System version, so I'm trying to bring maximum visual fidelity to SEGA's 8-bit console in this port," explains alfredtdk. "It also brings an arcade element missing from home consoles: when opponents are finally defeated, they transform into clay creatures. While it's still a work in progress, we currently have two transitional screens available, but it's ..."
