Sega Is "Evaluating" Its Own Netflix-Style Subscription Service
Image: SegaSega's Western boss has revealed that the company is internally discussing the idea of creating its own subscription-based game service.Speaking to the BBC about subscription services such as Xbox Game Pass and PlayStation Plus, Shuji Utsumi said that such services are "very interesting" and that Sega is currently "evaluating some opportunities".He added:We're thinking something - and discussing something - we cannot disclose right now.This means Sega would join the likes of Microsoft, Sony and Nintendo in offering a monthly subscription which offers access to games.Given its history, it makes sense for Sega to investigate a subscription model.
