What is Genesis Pack V2 1.15?

Genesis Pack V2 1.15 is a resource pack that recreates the colour pallette and visual style seen in the classic video game console the SEGA Genesis. Using resource pack design, Genesis Pack V2 1.15 aims to emulate the 9-bit colour palette of the famous Genesis and Mega-drive consoles to give Minecraft an undeniably more ‘SEGA’ vibe.

What is Genesis Pack V2 1.15 like to play with?

As I’ve already mentioned, the Genesis Pack V2 1.15 pack for Minecraft 1.15 is the perfect pack for players who are big fans of classic video games and vintage gaming systems. Unlike many packs that simply try to evoke the same rudimentary visual style found in classic games through use of pixel art graphics and lower texture resolutions, Genesis Pack V2 1.15 seeks to reflect the actual technological specifications of the consoles of the time.

As someone who never got to truly experience what is considered by many to be the golden age of video game consoles, it was a fantastic opportunity to experience my favourite game with this retro-styled SEGA-focused filter on the top of it.

The result is a visual style that is incredibly faithful to old school SEGA video game graphics. You’re treated to a pixelated SEGA logo on startup of the game, which was a great little treat to see. In the same vein, playing the game with the pack installed is equally enjoyable. All of the game’s textures have been reworked to mimic old video game textures, and the result is surprisingly great to look at. It’s clear that the creator has a lot of experience with older games, as the pack manages to evoke a sense of accuracy that can be appreciated by casual fans and lifelong devotees alike.

The only downside to the pack is that due to its recent release, the pack doesn’t have as much overarching content as other packs that have been around much longer. The creator admits that they hope to continue to develop the pack, adding more details such as sounds in the near future. I’m looking forward to it!
