Discipline and Kizuna will probably come to NA, XSEED not confirmed as No More Heroes 2 publisher?
Ken from XSEED Games has shared a wealth of knowledge regarding No More Heroes: Desperate Struggle and a few other titles for North America…
“No confirmation yet [Discipline in North America], but Marvelous Entertainment USA (MEU) will evaluate if it’s a fit for the US market and then decide to bring it over or not. I don’t know much about the game, but chances are good it will happen…This title [Kizuna] is a hot topic of discussion among publishers so I’m sure it will come over to the US. Whether it’s by MEU, XSEED or some other publisher is yet to be decided.”
“This title [No More Heroes: Desperate Struggle] will definitely come to the US, the official publisher will be confirmed shortly. Still not confirmed at this time, but Marvelous was pleased with Ubisoft on the first one so it wouldn’t be a surprise if they handled the second one as well.”
Ken also mentioned that there is no news regarding Steel Princess in North America, XSEED tries to follow Japanese source material as closely as possible (when localizing, whether it’s the original Japanese names, theme songs, etc.), and that XSEED will look into pre-order items in the future.
