Sega CS3 is the continuation of GE2 and GE3. It handles a large amount of the output of Sega on consumer platforms, frequently collaborating on co-producing and co-developing with external developers in Japan. Over time, CS1 had the Yakuza franchise, CS2 had the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise, with each respective franchise getting large dedicated production teams. Therefore, CS3 gets alot of the "rest" of the games that Sega produces, including archive and retro re-releases, like 3D Classics.

Over time about five dedicated franchises became home at CS3, all of them aimed at Japan. Which are 7th Dragon, Phantasy Star, the newly rebooted Shining, Valkyria Chronicles and Hatsune Miku.

Free-to-Play and mobile games branched out to Online R&D.
