In addition to the recent financial report released by SEGA, the company has also revealed its plans to release 47 digital games by March of next year. SEGA has stated that it plans to shift management resources from the amusement parks and packaged games to digital software for PC, mobile, and console platforms, calling it a “center of growth”.
With franchises such as Phantasy Star Online, Monster Gear, and Chain Chronicle doing considerably well, it is logical to focus their resources on that area. What do you think of SEGA’s plans to release an impressive 47 games by the end of the next fiscal year? Let us know in the comments below!

I really hope this is the fresh start we all want for SEGA….:^.
Where will the games be released?
They haven’t clarified on where exactly, but chances are that most of them will be global launches. Release dates and what games they may be are also TBD
Most of them will be global launches? Let’s look some of the digital games released/announced by SEGA at the beginning of the year :
1. Sonic Runners
2. Puyopuyo Quest
3. Chain Chronicle
4. Phantasy Star Online II es
5. Phantasy Star Online II Episode III
6. Dragon Parade
7. Total War Kingdoms
8. Xuccess Heaven
9. Hortensia Saga
10.Chaos Dragon
11. Poitto Hero
12. Monster Gear
Only 1 of them got global launches, will be 2 with Sonic Runners. 2 of 12. :S
I’m sure as part of their restructuring plan, they would want to reach a broader audience. Perhaps 40 of them will just be released in Japan, and the rest globally. We shall see
I should have been more specific – how will they be released? Will they be on disc for console? or as downloads across all platforms (Well, not all but hopefully PC)? Will it be on GOG, or Steam, or will SEGA make their own competitor?
