SEGA Forever Brings the OG Heat to Android – Sonic the Hedgehog, Altered Beast, and More

I’m sorry, but because SEGA’s opening line is just too good, I’m going to use it. Straight from the press release, “In celebration of a simpler time – an era that came before cool kale, hyper-connectedness, DIY artisanal beer-making, and social media mayhem – SEGA Networks Inc. is bringing a growing collection of classic video games from every console era to your mobile device for free.”

That’s right, SEGA has launched classic titles for free to mobile devices. Starting today, you can find six old school titles, with more coming each couple of weeks in an operation called SEGA Forever. The first titles are Sonic the Hedgehog, Phantasy Star II, Comix Zone, Kid Chameleon, and Altered Beast.

SEGA is doing things right, too. The titles support controllers, cloud saves, and do feature leaderboards, allowing you to showoff the skills you’ve been honing for the past decades. Also, while the games are free to download and you can play them offline, there are ads. However, you can remove the ads for just $1.99. Considering these are the real deal, $1.99 seems like nothing when it comes to enjoying these titles ad-free.

Below are the Google Play links and a trailer for SEGA Forever.

Stumbling upon Droid Life randomly after purchasing a Motorola DROID in late 2009, then setting out to learn everything he could about Android, Tim quickly became an integral part of the site's comment section. After quite some time of strictly commenting on Droid Life, Tim was offered an opportunity to write feature stories for the site, such as custom ROM overviews, as well as interviews with Android community members. Following success of those, Tim became a full time writer and editor for Droid Life, now spending his time on news articles, device reviews, producing videos, and much more. Tim currently resides in Portland, OR with his longtime girlfriend and two wonderful dog children (Loki & Thor). In his spare time, Tim enjoys playing guitar, drinking coffee, practicing photography, and destroying kids on Call of Duty.

  • It kinda has a problem with android tv devices, it will install, but as it’s expecting touch input on certain screens to actually get the game going, it won’t go past the initial screen.

  • This is amazing. I just need contra and mega Man to come to Android and I will be a happy person.

  • Altered Beast??? Holy crap, I loved that game as a kid. Even had it for the Sega Master System. Pretty sure I was one of only 24 people that owned one of those lol.
