We knew Namco Bandai was getting a (small) name change, but now we have a date as well. The company has confirmed that it’s “new” Bandai Namco rebranding will take place on April 1. This will apply to all communications, product branding, and presences in digital and online spaces.
Nobuhiro Kasahara, chief operating officer at Namco Bandai Games. America Inc., said:
“Since its merger in late 2005, BANDAI NAMCO Games has grown to be one of the largest and most successful game publishers in its native Japan, the United States, Latin America, and Europe. The BANDAI NAMCO Games logo has now become synonymous with great gaming products and services; it’s the perfect time for us to unify our corporate brand around the world and move forward together in a united front as a global company.”

Namco Bandai has gone by the name “Bandai Namco” in Japan since Bandai and Namco merged back in 2005. Overseas, though, the “Namco Bandai” name has been kept in tact.
That’s changed following a meeting of the board of directors held in Japan yesterday. The names of all 31 subsidiaries have been unified, and will be known as “Bandai Namco” going forward. In doing so, the company hopes to enhance the value and appeal” of the brand.
