CEO of Level-5 says he hopes their newly opened North American office will develop its own games
“Our U.S. office mainly works to efficiently release the Japanese titles that Level-5 has created overseas and they are involved in production and distribution in the overseas territories. With Ni no Kuni, they are helping bring it to the overseas markets and potentially with other titles. In the future, we would potentially like to develop title overseas where Level-5 International America is taking the lead on developing for the overseas market.” – Level 5 CEO Akihiro Hino
Hmm… It’s a bit up for debate as of right now, but once they finish localization of Ni no Kuni and the rumored publishing of Guild 01 I could see them slowly taking on a development role. Assuming that Ni no Kuni and Guild 01 sell enough to keep them afloat, that is!
