Sega is lowering the priority of games-as-a-service titles
Sega is reducing the priority of its games-as-a-service titles following weak performance from new free-to-play games like Sonic Rumble Party and a delay in other launches. The company has also canceled its "Super Game" initiative, which involved partnering with Microsoft for cloud-based game development. Personnel have been shifted from GaaS to full-game development to focus on core IPs.
