Well, the description is 'new to Sega', and Sega has been releasing stuff on EGS in the last six months or so, so I'm not sure that fits. I'm putting my metaphorical chips on this being about GOG releases.
Eons overdue. At launch this would've been a certain evergreen. It can still do hugely, but this not being on Switch period is a massive blunder of epic proportions.
Get Feral Interactive on it, they've done probably THE best PS360-to-Switch ports, being Grid Autosport, and even Sega's Alien Isolation.
Nah, Sega this would have made too much sense and money for them.
Let's just say there is a reason why they are reshuffling their whole management right now.
Let those games be on all platforms please š
Forreal though it's incredible that SEGA didn't rerelease any Sonic games from the previous 2 generations on modern consoles.
Fan favorites like the Adventure games and Generations would've been easy money. So many Nintendo players missed out on Generations from the previous gen, you'd think they would wanna capitalize on that.

The October 2019 starting date also puts it after Forces, Mania, and Lost World PC, so yeah this is some new (old) stuff.
Officially port the Taxman Sonic 1 & 2, Colors, Unleashed, and Generations everywhere pls. Also Sonic the Fighters and Sonic R because I'm terrible.

The game could finally be functional if Sega are willing to modify the source code and fix all the glitches of the original release.
It's so overdue I remember expecting an expanded port launch year for the Wii u with a new stage or two.
Given that Judgement has a Stadia exclusive release that seems to mean no actual PC version for the time being, I'd say that Sega does consider it a PC platform.
It's one game. That still counts as new to them. Much more so than say, EGS, where they currently have 5 games, but even that might count.
Only Sega could respond to their success on PC by veering off into Stadia exclusives and the like. There is practically a decades-long queue of software they could be prepping for modernised releases across PC/switch/ps5/xbsx and they're fucking around with Judgment for stadia.
Unleashed is my friend's favorite Sonic game, and I know for a fact that he'd buy it again on PC. I actually have a copy on 360, though that's currently sitting at home while I'm at college. Perhaps a PC release will finally get me to try it myself...
But I forgot about Sega's existing Epic Games Store releases. I think, in this case, they'd have to be referring to GOG, Origin, or Ubisoft Connect then.
Or they could be digitally releasing previously physical only PC games like Sonic Heroes or something. But that wouldn't really be something to put on a resume as a port, would it?
This is all of y'all looking for any new Sonic content coming out this year:
You'll get the logo of a TV show that might come out next year, and you'll like it

Probably this, don't know how Stadia counts as a PC platform and I doubt Epic paid Sega to have old Sonic games in their store.
Obviously for the Windows Store/Xbox App for Game Pass PC since all first party games will be on Game Pass.

I'm still shitty that they're stuck on mobile STILL! Like is Sega so offended that someone else does Sonic better than them that they just sweep these ports under the rug? No reason they shouldn't be on consoles, especially when Xbox is stuck with those shitty 4:3 ports.
These were recently decompiled by someone in the Sonic community, so you can play them natively on PC if you own the mobile versions, IIRC.
Iirc there was a rumour that another Sega franchise thats not Yakuza will come to gamepass. This would fit.
The way it's worded sounds to me like they're talking about taking games already on PC and selling them on more digital storefronts (like EGS, GOG, etc).
But that wouldn't really be "porting" in the way that that term is usually used. So it might mean releasing games on other PC platforms like Linux, Mac or even Stadia.

I think multiple publishers/developers consider Stadia equivalent to PC, for whatever reason. I remember Samurai Shodown's Stadia version being touted as a "PC version" or something along those lines. Maybe it's a Japanese developer thing?
I want to say this might be for putting games on EGS, but why would they need new people just to handle pushing games they've already released on Steam there? Possibly Linux and Mac ports?
