Hardlight (formerly known as Sega Hardlight) is a British video game developer of Sega based in Leamington Spa, England. First mentioned in January 2012, it is focused on mobile games for smartphones and became a part of Sega Europe in 2019.

Founded by Sega employee Chris Southall, Hardlight initially began work on research and development for handheld game consoles, but soon shifted to mobile games after being asked by Sega as part of an initiative to increase mobile game development outside of Japan. Hardlight developed several mobile games in the Sonic the Hedgehog and Crazy Taxi video game series and its games received numerous downloads, with Sonic Dash having been downloaded millions of times.
