I think I’ve written more rumours than real, officially announced news this past week. I guess that’s going to continue with this rumour, the biggest one yet.

If true…SEGA would be a “major partner” with Google for their console, making some games for it. Of course, some info from Liam Robertson doesn’t help the rumour at all. The source is below, as well as Liam’s response.

Tl;dw: Sega is rumoured to be a “major partner” in Google’s upcoming entry into the game’s business, allegedly debuting at GDC, just after SXSW – and if any of it pans out, the last week of analyzing Sonic movie renders is going to feel quaint. #NothingStopsThisTrain https://t.co/G2lZ2LkoO8

Doesn't rule out another studio doing one for it, but I doubt that's the case. SEGA apparently ruled out that and some of their other major modern ones, too. Google is rumoured to be more interested in some of their classic franchises anyway.
