The hub will be a 3D recreation of an early 1990s Sega fan's bedroom, complete with dynamic time-of-day conditions, retro Sega paraphernalia, a shelf filled with chunky Mega Drive cartridges for the console and even an old-school CRT TV. The hub also features full controller and keyboard support, the ability to save at any point while playing, optional graphics enhancement filters and local co-op for supported games.
Sega will elaborate on the extent of the modification framework at a later date, according to community manager Dan Sheridan. Sega also announced Steam Workshop support for all Mega Drive titles, meaning fans now have a legitimate platform for sharing their modifications.
Sega has announced the Sega Mega Drive Classics Hub is coming to Steam, an interactive loader for its emulated Mega Drive (Genesis in the US) games already available on the distribution platform.
