Following in the footsteps of Ubisoft and Square Enix, Sega is reportedly mulling over the possibility of integrating NFTs into their games, much to the dismay of many gamers.

A month-old interview on Sega Japan's careers and recruitment website was recently translated by VGC and the English-speakers were able to get a glimpse at the future Sega envisions for gaming.

Sega executive VP Shuji Utsumi explained Sega's vision for its "SuperGame" initiative. According to Utsumi, Super Games will be "AAA titles that cross over SEGA’s comprehensive range of technologies." These are hyped as going "beyond the traditional framework of gaming." It's unclear what that will mean until Sega releases one of these "SuperGames," though it appears to indicate Sega is looking to connect their games together somehow even if they are vastly different titles.

One way that connection could take place, Sega producer Masayoshi Kikuchi, explained, is through the potential integration of NFTs.

"It is a natural extension for the future of gaming that it will expand to involve new areas such as cloud gaming and NFTs," he said. "We are also developing SuperGame from the perspective of how far different games can be connected to each other."

This is not a confirmation that Sega will be including controversial crypto assets into their games going forward, but it was concerning to Sega fans that the company is apparently discussing the possibilities of what it can do with NFTs, considering a vocal majority of players dislike NFTs and past attempts to integrate them into video games have landed like lead balloons.


For now, NFT-doubters can at least be comforted with the knowledge that Sega appears to merely be "exploring" NFTs. It's possible that Kikuchi could have been floating the idea in order to get a read from the company's fanbase, in which case, many Sega fans have made their opinion on NFTs clear.
