XSEED remains interested in publishing Forbidden Magna in North America. The company’s Ken Berry said the following when asked about the possibility of localization:

“Oh yes, definitely. It’s still early in the development process. I think moving forward, we will be working much more closely with Marvelous AQL Japan and try to bring as many of their releases to the US as possible.”

Berry also shared a few words about Forbidden Magna in general:

“Some of the ex-Neverland staff that were working Forbidden Magna, that team once Neverland closed was brought into MAQL’s internal office so they could finish up the game.”

Marvelous AQL is getting a small name change. Starting on July 1, the company will ditch its “AQL” portion and will simply be known as “Marvelous”. By doing so, the company hopes to strengthen its brand power.

A few Marvelous executives will be shifting roles on April 1. Those are as follows:

Haruki Nakayama – president and CEO (currently executive chairman)
Kyoda Shuichi – president and operating officer COO (currently president and operating officer)
Toshinori Aoki – executive vice president and operating officer department; holding on to executive vice president and operating officer, digital content general manager, and online content senior executive manager titles
