The full press release may be read below:
Marvelous USA, Inc. and XSEED Games today announced strategic organizational changes to support expansion plans from parent company, Marvelous Inc. Under the new structure, XSEED Games will continue to discover and publish third-party titles, such as past breakout indie hits Potionomics and Sakuna: Of Rice and Ruin, and upcoming titles The Big Catch and Moonlight Peaks. Marvelous USA will be responsible for publishing the Marvelous family of games, including the flagship STORY OF SEASONS and Rune Factory series. Additionally, Marvelous USA is providing business, operational, and marketing support to Marvelous Inc.’s arcade business unit, including the first Western product, NARUTO Emblem Battle, currently rolling out in arcades across North America.
Marvelous Inc. is taking a more holistic view as it grows its Western footprint, presenting owned IPs through a singular global brand. The changes strengthen the organization as it moves forward with larger, more ambitious scope of development and budgets, the aforementioned Western expansion of its arcade business unit, and upcoming milestone anniversaries for the STORY OF SEASONS and Rune Factory series. The distinction further allows XSEED Games to pursue titles with more freedom as it continues the legacy of discovering and publishing third-party gems from around the world, now with a more focused approach.
