No Sega, a remake of a, admittedly great, nearly 25 year old game is not a triple A game but does make you sound like a quadruple A-hole.
Please just give us what we want: micro-transactions to paint the taxi different colors and then a skin for $50 to change the taxi into a London black cab.
Then it will truly be AAA
It will be a shared world multiplayer-first service game so it can be an AAAA game like that recently released Black Flag add-on that got out of control.
You just made some executive somewhere cum
If they charge 70 bucks for it and include the mtx store then it’ll be even better as a AAAA game.
You realize that AAA is used to refer to the budget, scale, and expectations of the game, right? And that it’s more of a reboot than a remake, meaning it’s probably not going to be an arcade style game. They’re talking about their aims for the game, and trying to justify charging $60-70 for it beforehand.
Whatever you need to tell yourself that ‘This is fine’ is fine by me.

If the leaks are true, well that’s going to be a lot of copium being taken.
I only go for QUADRUPLE AAAA title now! Thanks Ubisoft
I cannot imagine it’ll be any good
crazy taxi was an “arcade” game, basically.
How they gonna fuck this up?
AAA games has lost its meaning to me.
How about the triple A remake of Pong we’ve all been waiting for?
That’s a PC2 exclusive
Pong RTX
We do have a AAA space invaders called infinity gene…
Fuckin hype!
Sorry, do I have to be an insufferable, cynical pessimist to comment here?
No you can be a delusional, corporate happy pill taking person that loves live service games and the enshitification of the gaming sphere drowning in microtransactions driven by psychologists designed specifically to prey on addiction to comment.
it’s the beauty of the 1st amendment.
I feel the need to be pedantic here: the first amendment has nothing to do with speech on private platforms.
AAAAA or nothing for me.
What would that even look like? Is it becoming a game like Driver instead of just arcade timed fun?
Death Stranding.
These AAA games are as AAA as the mortgage bonds were in 2007 lol.
They think AAA still means quality games. Triple A is synonymous with broken garbage in today’s world.
Don’t forget, Sega called out these games along side things like subscription services https://www.tweaktown.com/news/94151/segas-new-super-game-set-for-2026-may-include-crazy-taxi-or-jet-radio-live-games/index.html
The more As a game has the shittier it is. Which reminds me. Come check out my new game on my onlyfans. It’s a AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA game which means it’s basically pong but with microtransactions and ads I’m sure it’ll be a hit.
maybe its got a 5th Element taxi level or something.
is this not SEGA being cheeky about Ubisoft claiming that Skull & Bones is a quadruple A game?
or are they being serious that they’re dumping that much into Crazy Taxi?
Well you know what that means: its gonna ship unfinished, half assed, and with tons of DLC.
