SEGA Forever could be a possibility on Switch

SEGA Forever, a growing collection of classic games, was announced for mobile today. The catalog will expand in the months and years ahead, with each game offering new elements like leaderboards.

What’s interesting about SEGA Forever is that it’s being handled almost entirely with Unity. This was an intentional move, as SEGA Networks’ chief marketing officer Mike Evans told GamesIndustry that doing so “enables us to take this content to other platforms”. Evans even specifically mentions Switch in his remarks.

He said:

“About 90% of the games so far are in Unity. The reason we chose Unity as middleware is it enables us to take this content to other platforms as well. So my first focus is mobile. It’s a huge project and what I really want to do is get mobile right. After this, there are options: we can look at desktop, Facebook, we could even take these games to consoles like Switch.”
