Sega Reboots Crazy Taxi and Jet Set Radio to Chase Fortnite Riches

The new Crazy Taxi has already been in development for over a year and the Tokyo-based entertainment group aims to release it within two to three years, the people said, asking not to be named as the information is not yet public.
It was named alongside Jet Set Radio in Sega’s annual report a year ago on a list of intellectual property assets that Sega wanted to recapitalize by bringing them up to date.
Both new games are in the early stages of creation and could still be canceled, the people said.

Wait... so Sega is coming to Fortnite? I dunno how I feel about that. ANd I'm not talking about the fact I just don't find the game that interesting to play.

From what I heard Fortnite is trying to be it's own Disney or something by collecting as many IPs as it can to adapt into it's own universe for marketable means. So I dunno how I feel about Sega giving Fortnite some of it's characters.

What?? SEGA is Coming to Fortnite??



No.. no.. You misread the title.
SEGA is inspired to follow Fortnite's recipe for success.

Fortnite has become the role model for many game companies : free to play, it’s available across platforms, hosts large multiplayer contests and includes extras like vehicles, construction and social events on top of the usual combat, spurring player purchases of in-game items.
That's why they prepare Super Game initiative, with online version of Crazy Taxi and Jet Set Radio as the first entries.

I see... so Sega might be making new installments to old series like Crazy Taxi and Jet Set Radio that offers competitive MMO play?
