'''Sega Interactive''' (株式会社セガ・インタラクティブ) was the company established to take over Sega's arcade product development, manufacturing and sales businesses, in the April 2015 split of [[Sega Corporation (2000-2015)|Sega Corporation]] into two (with its counterpart being [[Sega Games]]). 

Although the move was ostensibly intended to further separate Sega's arcade and consumer businesses, Interactive continued to additionally develop a number of titles on consumer platforms, and even adopted a dedicated strategy for them in late 2016 ("multi-device × one-service"{{ref|https://web.archive.org/web/20230606030835/https://www.sega.jp/topics/detail/161025_apps_1/}}). This page compiles all of its published works, and staff that cannot be attributed to a specific division or department.

On Interactive's founding, the main divisions were [[Sega Interactive R&D1|R&D1]] and [[Sega Interactive R&D2|R&D2]], alongside supporting departments for hardware and other purposes like [[Sega Interactive Product R&D|Product R&D]] as before. However, its R&D structure was subsequently changed in at least two major (yet little-publicized) reshuffles; a [[Sega Interactive R&D3|R&D3]] mainly comprised of staff from R&D1 was first formed around late 2015,{{ref|https://web.archive.org/web/20151223054431/http://sega-interactive.co.jp/recruit/career/}} and by the company's move to Sega's new Osaki offices in February 2019,{{ref|https://web.archive.org/web/20241004022733/https://gamebiz.jp/news/217868}} R&D1, 2 and 3 became departments, with the mobile, console and [[medal game]] teams that belonged to R&D1/2 each spun out into a [[Sega Interactive R&D4|R&D4]],{{ref|https://web.archive.org/web/20191224102840/https://sega-interactive.co.jp/recruit/13208/}}{{ref|https://web.archive.org/web/20191224102840/https://sega-interactive.co.jp/recruit/13208/}}  [[Sega Interactive R&D5|R&D5]],{{ref|https://web.archive.org/web/20191224102840/https://sega-interactive.co.jp/recruit/12105/}}{{ref|https://web.archive.org/web/20191224102838/https://sega-interactive.co.jp/recruit/12101/}}{{ref|https://web.archive.org/web/20191224102840/https://sega-interactive.co.jp/recruit/6791/}} and [[Sega Interactive R&D6|R&D6]].{{ref|https://web.archive.org/web/20191224102841/https://sega-interactive.co.jp/recruit/6756/}}{{ref|https://web.archive.org/web/20191224102838/https://sega-interactive.co.jp/recruit/6799/}}{{ref|https://web.archive.org/web/20191224102836/https://sega-interactive.co.jp/recruit/6801/}} [[Sega Amusements International]] and its own R&D team additionally traded under Interactive.{{ref|https://web.archive.org/web/20201028205836/https://www.intergameonline.com/coin-op/news/change-at-sega}}

In 2020, the company merged back into [[Sega Games]] to become the second incarnation of [[Sega Corporation (2020)|Sega Corporation]]. Its main personnel and R&D departments initially came under its fifth division.
