Sega launched a new cross-platform game-linking service called Sega Accounts, reports Eurogamer. The company says the online profile system will bring “a host of benefits” for players, like bonuses for specific games and other promised features down the line.
You can create the account over at sega-account.com, and from there link it to your Nintendo, PlayStation, Xbox, and Steam accounts, with Epic Games coming soon. Doing so will net you a code for some bonus DLC: a new costume to use in Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii, which is out on February 20th. (You can also get that DLC by signing up for Sega’s newsletter, though.)
Sega says the account will enable other “services and features” soon. One possibility could be a subscription service like Game Pass or PlayStation Plus, as IGN speculated today. Sega’s Shuji Utsumi told BBC last month subscriptions like those are “interesting” and that the company is “evaluating some opportunities,” but didn’t get more specific than that.
