Like a Dragon, Persona and Sonic are set to get even bigger: an insider reveals Sega's plans for annual releases of games from its most successful franchises
The last few years have been extremely successful for Sega (if we don't take into account the problems at Creative Assembly studio and the SEGA has cancelled development of the nearly completed online shooter HYENAS from Creative Assembly studio. The publisher begins a global restructuring of the business expensive online shooter HYENAS).
Not least the Japanese company's success is due to the popularity of three franchises - Like a Dragon (formerly Yakuza), Persona and Sonic. These games bring stable income and according to insider information Sega plans only to increase the pace of development of new parts.
Here's What We Know
Authoritative insider Midori (MbKKssTBhz5), who regularly shares reliable information about the Japanese game industry, said that Sega plans to make the release of new projects in the franchises Like a Dragon, Persona and Sonic annual.

I think this is unannounced information.
Considering that most of the games in the above series receive top marks and remain in the memories of gamers for a long time, perhaps few people would be against regular releases of quality projects.
