    Dragami Games President and Lollipop Chainsaw Producer is Stepping Down

    Shohei Sato has been appointed as the new president and CEO.

    Published:

    Dragami Games announced EXTREME founder, president, and CEO Shohei Sato is now the president and CEO of Dragami Games. Sato has succeeded Yoshimi Yasuda as of April 1, 2025. 

    Before his appointment as president and CEO, Sato served as representative executive vice president of Dragami Games under Yasuda. Sato was appointed to the VP role back in February 2025. After Sato’s appointment as the company CEO and president, Yasuda will remain on board with Dragami Games as a company director until June, after which he plans to step down. 

    Yasuda’s last game as producer was Lollipop Chainsaw RePOP. The former president previously revealed new details about Nightmare Mode in Lollipop Chainsaw RePOP, which will be added in a free update in April 2025. Nightmare Mode is unlocked after achieving a happy ending in Original Mode or RePOP Mode in Lollipop Chainsaw RePOP.

    The setting of Nightmare Mode is slightly altered, as it takes place within a dark and immersive world in Juliet’s dream. Similar to the Original Mode, the game progresses stage by stage, starting from the prologue. All zombies appearing in the mode were replaced with “named zombies,” and Voices of Darkness enemies are more powerful. 

    Additionally, Nightmare Mode features various items that awaken Juliet’s latent potential and abilities. By collecting those items, Juliet can take high-speed acrobatic battles to the next level in order to defeat formidable enemies. 

    Lollipop Chainsaw RePOP is available now for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam. The game runs at 1080p at 30 FPS on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One. The Xbox One version may be upgraded to the Xbox Series X|S version via Smart Delivery.
