Going Digital: Dreamcast

It’s tough to admit, but our Dreamcasts aren’t getting any younger, and there may come a time when you need to resort to buying your SEGA games on the current gen systems. So what we’ve done here is compiled every Dreamcast game that’s available across all major digital platforms and put them on one page. As new games become available, we’ll continue to update the page so it’s always as current as possible.

If you think we’ve missed one, please let us know! The following list shows each game, when it was originally released on the Dreamcast, what platforms it’s available on today and when it was re-released. Clicking the platform links will take you to the game on the digital platform where you can purchase it.
