- Sega has launched a new Sega Account service
- It’s free to join and offers exclusive in-game rewards
- This includes a bonus outfit for Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii
Sega has just launched a brand new online account system, simply called ‘Sega Account’.
The official Sega Account website reveals that it “lets you maximize Sega’s online services” and that it “offers a wealth of benefits.” Like Sega’s email newsletter system, Sega Account is free to sign up and looks like it will offer exclusive in-game rewards to those who do.
Right now, users who sign up will receive an exclusive outfit for Majima in Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii. The Kazuma Kiryu Special Outfit dresses Majima in his best friend’s outfit, which is sure to feel out of place in the best possible way when the game launches on February 21, 2025.
It also appears that Phantasy Star Online 2: New Genesis players will receive free in-game currency via Sega Account. This is a bit trickier as the Sega Account link takes you to the Japanese Phantasy Star Online 2 website. However, a quick machine translation shows that players can link theirs PSO 2 account to their Sega account to receive the in-game benefits there.
Sega promises that more features will be coming to Sega Account soon, including the ability to view records of relevant Sega and Atlus games that you own. There is no date for this feature yet, but we imagine it will happen in the near future.
