If you don’t already know, Sega is releasing Mega Drive titles on the PlayStation Network, with the first titles appearing on the store today. PlayStation Plus users can download Sonic the Hedgehog from the store today, and can expect a further five more titles over the next few months.
The other titles include: Sonic 2, Streets of Rage 2, Golden Axe 2, Altered Beast and Comix Zone. The release schedule is already in place for a few of the titles (providing nothing goes wrong):
- Sonic 2 – free for PS Plus users on April 6th, released onto PS Store on April 20th
- Streets of Rage 2 – free for Plus users on May 4th, released onto PS Store on May 18th
- Golden Axe 2 – free for Plus users on June 1st, released onto PS Store on June 15th
Whilst these are games you may have seen previously from the Mega Drive Collection title, each title does come with its own set of trophies, online leaderboards and in the case of Sonic 2, Streets of Rage 2, Altered Beast and Golden Axe II, online co-op. Therefore, they are different from what have been released previously. Also, at £3.19/€3.99 each it’s cheaper than your regular PSN title.
