Zaxxon Escape
Sega propose Zaxxon Escape, une nouvelle production qui relance la franchise Zaxxon sur les plateformes iOS et Android. Concernant l'accueil critique, le site 148Apps a salué la volonté du jeu d'explorer de nouveaux concepts au sein du genre du runner en 3D, tout en notant que cette ambition n'est pas toujours couronnée de succès. De son côté, AppAdvice a mis en garde les joueurs espérant un portage du classique arcade de 1982, les invitant plutôt à faire preuve d'ouverture face au changement proposé.

Critiques de la Presse (Metacritic)
« The 3D endless runner genre could use more games like Zaxxon Escape, ones that try to do something new with their concepts. It doesn't always succeed, but it is still a fun take on the genre. »
« If you were hoping for a port of the 1982 classic arcade game, you should just walk away right now. If you are willing to accept change, or have just never heard of Zaxxon before, this is a worthy game. It looks good and is challenging and fun. »
« Endless running in space that fits better on a small screen than on a tablet. »
« Unless you fancy yourself a diehard fan of its predecessor, Zaxxon Escape is not a particularly offensive game. »
« While utterly unlike the original game in any discernible way, Zaxxon Escape makes for a fun ride in its own right as the speed increases every second you survive. »
« A sadistic, unforgiving level of difficulty. This must have been made in the 80's. »
« Zaxxon Escape may be a logical continuation of the classic Arcade title, but aside from its shiny spaceship based theme it brings little to the table you can't already get in free Temple Run style games. »
« Zaxxon Escape takes a classic shoot-'em-up property and completely changes it to a mediocre flavour-of-the-month endless-runner. »
