Sega is still developing new games for the Streets of Rage, Jet Set Radio, and Golden Axe series. In its Q2 FY2027 financial report, Sega Corporation (Sega's parent company) still lists these three franchises as upcoming titles. The company first announced the release plans for these games this February.
Sega recently released Shinobi: Art of Vengeance, a new entry in the Shinobi series, and will launch a new Crazy Taxi game in 2027.
The Jet Set Radio series hasn't seen a new release in decades, since Jet Set Radio Future on the original Xbox. DotEmu released Streets of Rage 4 in 2020. The Golden Axe series hasn't had a new entry since Beast Rider in 2008.
Streets of Rage Film Adaptation in Development
Sega has been adapting its popular IPs into works beyond video games. The Sonic the Hedgehog film series has achieved tremendous success, with the fourth installment expected to be released in early 2027. Sega recently also launched the Golden Axe comedy series on the Paramount+ platform. The series received mixed reviews for its use of meta-humor.
A film adaptation of Streets of Rage is currently in development. Financial reports indicate that this project is an animated work. Additionally, Golden Axe appears in the financial reports as upcoming, though no official release date or platform has been announced yet.
