Sega has announced that they have agreed an exclusive worldwide publishing deal for next-generation game content from Silicon Knights. This news once again confirms Sega’s strength in the industry and follows a number of other agreements with the likes of Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment and Monolith and the recent acquisition of The Creative Assembly.
“We intend to establish SEGA as a leading publisher on the next generation of game hardware and only the highest possible quality of Western-developed content will get us there,” said Simon Jeffery, President and COO, SEGA of America. “Silicon Knights has a rich history of developing great games that push hardware technology, so we expect this relationship will result in a powerful, new, and highly commercial franchise.”
“Silicon Knights believes that the next generation systems will be the catalyst propelling video games as the dominant form of entertainment in this century,” said Denis Dyack, President of Silicon Knights. “We are very excited to collaborate with SEGA on a next generation project because we share a vision – to take the medium of games to new heights and move people as never before.”
No game details have been revealed at this time, but with E3 less than two months away, we might not have to wait that long for some juicy details.
