Sega has again signaled a return for Crazy Taxi, one of its long-running arcade-style driving franchises.
The company included Crazy Taxi in its recent Sega Sammy financial presentation as part of a slate of legacy revivals, and published a short social media teaser showing a taxi sign lighting up.
The announcement follows Sega's earlier confirmation that it plans to revive multiple legacy franchises even after the cancellation of its so-called “Super Game.”
Background and context
Crazy Taxi originally launched in 1999 on the Sega Dreamcast and was developed by Hitmaker (formerly Sega AM3).
The franchise is known for its fast-paced, arcade driving and signature soundtrack.
In the latest corporate update, Sega listed Crazy Taxi alongside other legacy properties targeted for revival, including Golden Axe, Jet Set Radio and Streets of Rage, with official titles and release dates listed as "TBD" in the presentation.
Teaser and developer positioning
On social media, Sega uploaded a five-second clip that focused on a taxi roof sign lighting up—an unmistakable emblem of the Crazy Taxi brand.
Sega has previously described the project as a high-budget, triple-A effort built around large-scale multiplayer driving, positioning the reboot as a major investment for the company.
