An untitled Jet Set Radio game in the Jet Set Radio series has been announced. Very little information has been revealed about it. As of now, the only characters confirmed to be returning are Beat and DJ Professor K, along with Shibuya as a returning location.[2]
Gum and Combo are also confirmed to be returning in a management presentation, on slide 36.[3]
Gameplay
In a management presentation held by Sega, it was confirmed that the world of Tokyo will be open world, and that players can "make friends, increase their fans, and create a movement".[4] In the brief footage shown, Beat was shown to do tricks in a similar fashion from Jet Set Radio Future, and the ability to do parkour as well.
Development
On December 8, 2023, it was confirmed that the game is a reboot and that the original creators of the series are involved with it.[5][6] The game is being developed by the 3rd Division of Sega, which is their "Online R&D" studio.[7][8][9]
According to an announcement via the mynavi-creator website, the game will have a new title and will not just be called "Jet Set Radio", and the developers behind it are Sega Sapporo Studio, a studio who is focused on developing games of existing Sega IPs.[1][8]
