Although King of Pirates was announced for Japan several months ago, the game hadn’t been confirmed for North America or Europe – until today.
Speaking with Joystiq, Keiji Inafune said that there are plans to bring the game overseas. It’s unknown who will be publishing King of Pirates – it could be Marvelous – but you can rest easy knowing that, in all likelihood, you’ll be able to play Inafune’s new game in the future.
Inafune said:
“For all my titles, I’m looking to do worldwide publishing. I can’t say who is publishing because it could be Marvelous directly or maybe they’re going to find another publisher in the US. But the plan is to do it worldwide.”
