日前KOEI官方宣布了KOEI加拿大分部的成立。新公司目前有美工,程序员,策划等共30余人,预计将在未来两年里扩展到150到200人。公司设立在多伦多。
加拿大最近越来越被许多游戏公司看中作为设立工作室的地方,KOEI希望也能借此拓展自己的全球市场形象,将游戏更好的适应不同的区域。
KOEI加拿大的第一个作品将是PS3的首发竞速游戏Fatal Inertia,另一款作品也是PS3平台,但目前细节不明。
Koei Creates New Canadian Studio
Officials from Japanese publisher and developer Koei have announced the formation of Koei Canada, Inc., which has already begun development of two titles for the PlayStation 3.
The studio is currently staffed by a team of thirty artists, programmers, designers and support staff, but this is expected to increase to between 150 and 200 employees over the next few years. Team members based in the new Toronto studio will also be given the opportunity to work at Koei’s other studios in Asia and Europe.
With Canada proving an increasingly popular location for publisher/developers, including Electronic Arts and Ubisoft, Koei officials claim that the company’s new studio is necessary to establish a presence in the global market, with products tailored to different regions.
In Japan the company enjoys considerable success with the Shin Sangoku Musou (aka Dynasty Warriors) series and related titles, but the first new game from Koei Canada will be futuristic aerial combat racing game Fatal Inertia. The company has not revealed details of the second game in development but Fatal Inertia is being developed as a launch title for the PlayStation 3. (Koei has previously announced a number of other PlayStation 3 titles from its existing studios, including Ni-Oh, Blade Storm: Hundred Years War and Mahjong Taikai).
"Toronto is a vibrant city with a rich ***ural mosaic that provides us with the necessary talent to develop games for a global marketplace," said Koei's founder and chief advisor Yoichi Erikawa, a prominent figure in the Japanese industry usually known by his nom de plume of Kou Shibusawa. "As a game creator, I am excited to be here and to work firsthand on the Fatal Inertia project. I feel that it will be a top launch title for the PlayStation 3."
