Both titles will also be available on October 5 for 800 Microsoft Points on Xbox LIVE® Arcade for the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft.
“Both of these titles represent something special in SEGA’s history, and that made them natural choices for the SEGA Heritage Collection” said Chris Olson, Vice President of Digital Business at SEGA Networks Co., Ltd. “NiGHTS offered 3D gameplay that had never been seen before on a home console, and Sonic Adventure 2 introduced rival character Shadow the Hedgehog to the Sonic the Hedgehog series. I hope players enjoy the opportunity to play these classic SEGA titles in their finest form to date.”
Both NiGHTS and Sonic Adventure 2 have been remastered in high definition and upgraded for current consoles, now featuring full support for achievements and trophies.
