In case you did not know, SEGA is working on official remakes of some of its classic games, including Crazy Taxi and Shinobi. And, from the looks of it, some gameplay footage from both of them has surfaced online.
Before continuing, we should note that these videos are WIP. These two remakes are still in development. As such, the videos do not represent the quality of their final versions. Nevertheless, I’m certain that most SEGA fans will be interested in them.
The Shinobi Remake appears to be in a more advanced state than the Crazy Taxi Remake. Shinobi Remake will be a 2D game, and it already looks lovely. From what I can see, players will be able to double jump, climb walls, fight enemies, and use their sword to open switches.
On the other hand, the prototype for Crazy Taxi Remake is a bit more rough. According to reports, this remake/reboot will have both single-player and multiplayer modes. So, this leaked gameplay is from the MP mode. In this mode, MP players will have to drive their customers faster than everyone else. Again, this is a WIP video. So, don’t be harsh on it.
There is currently no ETA on when these remakes will come out. Naturally, though, we’ll be sure to keep you posted.
Enjoy and stay tuned for more!
