Overview

• SEGA is rebooting five classic series for modern audiences: Crazy Taxi, Golden Axe, Jet Set Radio, Shinobi, and Streets of Rage.
• The original creator of Jet Set Radio is returning for the reboot, which is set in an open world take on Tokyo.
• The Streets of Rage reboot now has a title: Streets of Rage: Revolution.
• Speculation suggests that LizardCube may be developing the new Shinobi game, based on the art style presented in a recent management meeting.
• SEGA's decision to revive these franchises is attributed to the success of its 'pillars': Sonic the Hedgehog, Persona, and Like a Dragon (formerly known as Yakuza).
