Unannounced Titles Teased
Sega has hinted at four unannounced games that will be part of its lineup for TGS 2025, confirming involvement from Atlus and Ryu Ga Gotoku. Fans and industry analysts are buzzing with theories that this trademark could be connected to a compilation of SEGA’s arcade games, possibly featuring beloved classics like Virtua Racing, which was recently brought to the Nintendo Switch by developer M2.
A Confusing Overlap
Interestingly, there is already a game called Arcade Paradise that was released in 2022, which is essentially a laundry simulator filled with mini-games. This title was published by Wired Productions and Nosebleed Interactive, and it even has a physical version released by Soft Source.
Despite the name confusion, Sega has successfully registered the Arcade Paradise trademark with the Japan Patent Office, which covers video game software, entertainment services, and downloadable content.
Reviving Classic Titles
Sega seems to be working on a way to bring back its long-neglected arcade games under the Arcade Paradise title, especially since the company has removed many classic Sega games from digital stores like PlayStation Store, Steam, iOS, and Android, including iconic titles such as Jet Set Radio, Sonic CD, and Crazy Taxi. This has led fans to speculate whether Sega might be launching a subscription service akin to Nintendo’s NSO Online – Classics model.
Although there has been no official comment from Sega, many are left guessing what this project could entail and if the trademarked name will appear at Tokyo Game Show 2025. Fans are particularly hopeful that Sega will bundle together 20 or more titles from its golden era of the 80s and 90s, similar to M2’s ShotTriggers collection featuring Aleste or Power Strike (1988), GG Aleste (1991), GG Alesete II, and GG Aleste III.
Previous Collections by M2
M2 also managed the Sega Ages collection for the Nintendo Switch, which includes games like Sonic the Hedgehog 1 and 2, After Burner II, Columns II: The Voyage Through Time, Fantasy Zone, G-LOC: Air Battle, Puyo Puyo 1 and 2, Shinobi, and Virtua Racing, among other titles.
Additionally, a recent leak from RGG Studio’s official website briefly mentioned Yakuza Kiwami 3 as part of its projects, indicating a remake of the 2009 Yakuza 3. This has generated excitement for TGS 2025, as Yakuza Kiwami 3 could potentially be one of the four unannounced titles showcased by Sega.
