Sega has announced plans to explore a “strategic alliance” with Xbox to produce “large-scale, global” games built using Microsoft’s Azure cloud platform.
The Sonic maker said the agreement would form “a key part of Sega’s mid to long-term strategy”, which it has dubbed “Super Game”. This initiative is designed to develop games “where the key focuses are ‘global’, ‘online’, ‘community’ and ‘IP utilisation'”, it said today.
