Space Channel 5 Part 2 & SEGA Bass Fishing To Get DLC Releases

After already receiving a retail release in the SEGA Dreamcast Collection for Xbox 360 and Windows PC, SEGA have announced that Bass Fishing and Space Channel 5 Part 2 will also arrive on PSN and XBLA this summer in a downloadable form. The two games had been previously announced for release in early 2011, but that has now been adjusted slightly – albeit still without a firm date being given. SEGA Brand Manager Ben Harborne stated that “Space Channel 5 Part 2 and SEGA Bass Fishing are definitely coming to XBLA and PSN. Look for them sometime in late summer.”

Sonic Adventure and Crazy Taxi – both previously released Dreamcast classic games that have been released for digital download – are available on Xbox LIVE Arcade for 800 Microsoft Points or on the PlayStation Network Store for £6.29, so expect a similar price point for both of the forthcoming titles. There has been a mixed reaction from fans to the selection of Dreamcast games offered online so far, but there is hope that SEGA will continue to release further cult titles, and they did mention last year that they were hoping to bring a library of around 20 Dreamcast titles onto Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.

Space Channel 5 Part 2 and SEGA Bass Fishing will both hit Xbox LIVE arcade and the PlayStation Network sometime towards late summer 2011. The Dreamcast Collection – featuring the same two games, along with Sonic Adventure and Crazy Taxi – was released on February 22nd in North America and February 25th across Europe for Xbox 360 and PC.
