SEGA Of America Announces Irvine HQ Grand Opening

SEGA of America has announced that they will be opening up their brand new Irvine, California, headquarters next week. The company revealed that their new office space is in Irvine's Innovation Office Park, as they have taken a brand new 31,700 square foot space that will house up to 235 local employees. This will include several members of the various publishing wings of SEGA's departments, as well as Atlus Games. We've seen SEGA's old digs in Irvine before for various demos, and while there will be some nostalgia for the office space they used to be in, the new space is definitely an upgrade. Here's more info from today's announcement, along with a quote from the company on the move.
