How is nobody talking about this, from the article?

It was also referenced that this will be the case for Jet Set Radio, which will also receive a remake of its own before securing a live service reboot. In an exclusive reveal, Midori claimed that the reboot will feature ‘shooting elements’ and will be like Fortnite in its design. It’ll reportedly feature an open-world ‘concept’ with a solid focus on exploration as an all-new story unravels.

So Jet Set Radio is going to get the same treatment? Wow. It's hard to imagine my excitement for either game being killed so efficiently and instantly. Those MBAs sure got it all figured out.

Have you played Bomb Rush Cyberpunk? I thought it was a great take on the JSR formula.

Assuming this stuff is true, I will 100% pass on both games. 100% disappointed.

Shooting elements plus graffiti is just splatoon

Why would they put any kind of combat in Jet Set? The originals didn't have any combat, other than shoving down cops and spraying them with paint. The same thing is true for BRC which came out last August.
