Steel Empire

Sega has announced that a remake of the classic Sega Genesis steam-punk shooter Steel Empire will be released in Japan for the Nintendo 3DS in March.

Japanese publisher Starfish, founded by the original Steel Empire developers, has partnered with Tokyo-based Mebuis studio to develop the 3DS remake.



The title was first launched in Japan for the Sega Genesis in 1992, and re-released on the Nintendo GameBoy Advance in 2004. A Steel Empire sequel, titled Burning Steel, is also reportedly in development.
