[QUOTE="Admin, post: 62249, member: 1"] Sega has called its [URL='https://www.ign.com/games/crazy-taxi']Crazy Taxi[/URL] reboot a triple-A game. In December, during [URL='https://www.ign.com/articles/the-game-awards-2023-everything-announced']The Game Awards 2023[/URL], [URL='https://www.ign.com/articles/new-jet-set-radio-crazy-taxi-golden-axe-and-more-are-in-development-game-awards-2023']Sega announced new games in the Jet Set Radio, Shinobi, Golden Axe, Streets of Rage, and Crazy Taxi franchises[/URL] were in development alongside the teaser trailer, below. The video shows brief gameplay clips of each of the games set to return. We haven’t heard much about the initiative since, but in an article published by the [URL='https://www.japantimes.co.jp/life/2024/02/17/digital/sega-sapporo-studio-games/']Japan Times[/URL], one Sega executive referenced the Crazy Taxi reboot specifically and called it a triple-A game. Takaya Segawa, who runs Sega’s support studio in Sapporo, said: “We’re responsible for titles such as Phantasy Star Online 2: New Genesis and Hatsune Miku: Colorful Stage! in cooperation with the bases in Tokyo and overseas. We are also participating in the development of triple-A titles, including Crazy Taxi. “At present, we don’t have any titles developed independently by the studio, but we intend to do so in the future.” Crazy Taxi is a driving game series that first appeared in arcades in 1999 before ports on consoles such as the Dreamcast saw it enjoy popularity in the home. You play a taxi driver who speeds through the city to deliver passengers to their destinations, performing stunts to earn points along the way. The Crazy Taxi reboot is one of the first games coming out as part of Sega’s bid to revive its legacy franchises, although the company has yet to announce a release window or in which form the games will launch. But with Segawa calling Crazy Taxi a triple-A game, perhaps fans can expect something more significant than a modest return for one of its most-beloved arcade games.
