Keep on keeping on

Sega did not break out numbers for its mobile games, but did highlight existing titles Hortensia Saga, PuyoPuyo!! Quest and Chain Chronicle 3 as its stand-out titles.

It stated that sales in these games remained healthy thanks to a number of in-game events run throughout the year. It also launched the first instalment of its Soul Reverse series, Soul Reverse Zero, in the quarter.

Sega did not outline any major plans for the future of its mobile games. It instead appears to be focusing on console titles for the next quarter, as well as continuing on with its in-game events for its major titles.
