Overview & Key Takeaways

Game Informer News

Sega has canceled its Super Game, which was originally revealed as in development in 2021 with a budget of $882 million. When it was announced, all signs pointed to the Super Game being a single game, but we later learned "Super Game" was a title Sega used to describe various games with large budgets.

In the five years since the Super Game announcement, we never did learn exactly what these games were – there was no formal announcement or titles associated with the descriptor. But now, thanks to Sega's latest financial earnings report, it's clear we'll likely never know. On the "Review of the GaaS [games as a service]" page, Sega has a short line that reads, "Decided to cancel Super Game," noting that the company did not incur additional costs as a result of the cancellation for Quarter 3 of its 2026 Fiscal Year. And that's all she/Sega wrote.

Elsewhere in the report, Sega lists the following games as part of its "Upcoming Plans" slide, giving us a birds-eye view of games the company plans to release in the coming years:

  • Stranger Than Heaven: Winter
  • Persona 4 Revival: Release Date TBD
  • Total War: Warhammer 40,000: Release Date TBD
  • Total War: Medieval III: Release Date TBD
  • New Virtua Fighter Project: Title/Release Date TBD
  • Crazy Taxi: Title/Release Date TBD
  • Golden Axe: Title/Release Date TBD
  • Jet Set Radio: Title/Release Date TBD
  • Streets of Rage: Title/Release Date TBD
  • Alien: Isolation Sequel: Title/Release Date TBD

Though Sega doesn't name any games specifically, it says that in its Quarter 3 2027 Fiscal Year forecast, it expects to "launch four new titles based on mainstay IPs," suggesting it might be planning to launch four of the aforementioned games within the next fiscal year.

While we wait to learn more about these games, read about how we're finally getting an Alien: Isolation sequel, and then read about how Stranger Than Heaven will take place across five time periods. After that, check out the Persona 4 Revival reveal trailer, and then read about the recently released Persona 30th Anniversary jazz cover album.

Ninja Gaiden III, Ikari Warriors, And R.C. Pro-Am II Join Nintendo Switch Online Classics Library

!Game Informer News(https://gameinformer.com/sites/default/files/styles/bodydefault/public/2026/09/02/3b1a8ce0/ninja-gaiden-III-swich-online.jpg.webp) The NES library of the Nintendo Switch Online Classics has three new titles: Ninja Gaiden III: The Ancient Ship of Doom, Ikari Warriors, and R.C. Pro-Am II. Each title is available now to subscribers. Ninja Gaiden III: The Ancient Ship of Doom was released in 1991 as the final NES entry for the series. Its inclusion means the entire classic Ninja Gaiden trilogy is now available to Switch Online subscribers. The same is true of the R.C. Pro-Am racing series, with its 1992 sequel now joining the original (which has been available on Switch Online since February 2024). The run-and-gun action game Ikari Warriors is the oldest of today's additions, launching in arcades in 1986 before being ported to NES in the U.S. in 1987. Ikari Warriors is historically significant as one of the highest-grossing arcade games of its time and helped developer/publisher SNK break through in the West.

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Just Got A Surprise Free Update With 8-Player Split-Screen🍄 Nintendo Switch, Multi-platform

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Just Got A Surprise Free Update With 8-Player Split-Screen

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe(https://www.gamespot.com/games/mario-kart-8/) has been Nintendo's golden goose for several years, as it's the company's best-selling Switch game of all time(https://www.gamespot.com/gallery/best-selling-nintendo-switch-games-of-all-time/2900-5070/) and has received various updates over the years, becoming a feature-packed experience. Even with Mario Kart World aiming to usurp its position, Nintendo isn't done dropping new content into Mario Kart 8 yet, as the game just received a new eight-player split-screen mode out of nowhere on Switch 2. It's free to download, allows for up to eight players to share the screen locally, and it looks wild in action. Alongside the new mode that segments your TV like a slab of chocolate, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Version 4.0.0 also adds several more improvements that take advantage of the increased horsepower on Switch 2. In a nutshell, you're getting sharper graphics, CameraPlay support, and shorter load times in addition to smaller quality-of-life tweaks under the hood of the popular kart-racing game. Even player speed has been increased by a whopping coin--whatever that means. https://twitter.com/NintendoAmerica/status/2094968553728274749 But the expanded local split-screen is the real star of the show here, as not only can you strain your eyes while playing on TV, but you can also make your local optometrist happy by watching all those races unfold in handheld mode on the Switch 2. Considering just how much of an intensive load it is to render eight sessions in real time, the new multiplayer mode is a technical marvel to watch. This will likely keep Mario Kart 8 Deluxe at the top of the Nintendo food chain for a while yet. Mario Kart World has its charm, but as fans have pointed out, the anemic amount of content(https://www.gamespot.com/articles/surprise-mario-kart-world-update-ends-a-drought-of-new-content/) added since its launch last year has made it hard to root for. That drought might be coming to a temporary end, as with a rumored Nintendo Direct(https://www.gamespot.com/articles/a-september-10-nintendo-direct-is-looking-likely-thanks-to-just-dance/) supposedly arriving later this month, players are expecting Mario Kart World to get some sort of an update. If you're looking to grab it, a new Switch 2 + Mario Kart World bundle(https://www.gamespot.com/articles/two-new-switch-2-bundles-announced-just-before-price-hike/) ($550) launches in late September--albeit for $50 when compared to the original launch bundle.

You Can Watch A Cow Play Eve Online Right Now🎮 Multi-platform

You Can Watch A Cow Play Eve Online Right Now

Earlier this summer, Fenris Creations (formerly CCP Games) released an update to its popular online spacefaring MMO called Cradle of War, which the community immediately abbreviated to "CoW." This shorthand apparently sparked a few ideas inside Fenris, and now an actual cow is livestreaming an Eve Online session(https://www.twitch.tv/fenriscreations) from Iceland. The cow, whose name is Valva and username is FC CapitalCowPilot, is manning a mining ship on a deep space mining operation. The team at Fenris Creations fitted its pen with "cow-proof" buttons, which when stepped on will perform certain in-game actions, while a voiceover host delivers cow facts to viewers of the livestream. https://bsky.app/profile/lotrlore.bsky.social/post/3muk2ibt4zk25 As of this writing, over 200 players have joined CapitalCowPilot's mining expedition, with over 4000 viewers watching along on Twitch as the cow moves around its pen. Fenris Creations has announced some community goals which can be unlocked during the stream, including new skins for ships and new updates for the Cradle of War expansion. The stream will run "for roughly 4 to 6 hours," as Fenris admits that it's "on the cow's time, she's not on ours." Valva has made quite an impression on the stream's chat, with some users demanding that the cow be left alone(https://bsky.app/profile/lotrlore.bsky.social/post/3muk24h3hwc25) while on its mining mission. The Cradle of War expansion's non-bovine additions include time-limited Military Campaigns, which let players complete tasks in order to advance their empire's goals, and a new area called Exordium specifically built to help onboard new players.
