2025 outlook --
Yukinori Ito (Kou Shibusawa, Romance of the Three Kingdoms):
We are in the process of preparing a variety of projects for the Kou Shibusawa brand, some of which we will be able to announce soon, and others that may take a while to be announced. We hope to subvert everyone’s expectations, but in a good way.
Mei Erikawa (Ruby Party, Angelique):
In April 2025, the “Haruka: Beyond the Stream of Time” series will celebrate its 25th anniversary! We are preparing to announce a project that will please everyone, so please look forward to it.
We are also working hard on a new NeoRomance game, so please wait a little longer for more details.
We will continue to bring you thrills that will enrich your hearts and minds, and we look forward to your continued support!
Kikuchi Keisuke (Midas, Fatal Frame)
There are many more elements we would like to add to the Sengoku Walk game “Nobunaga's Ambition Shutsujin”, so we will work hard to expand functions and develop new events, first for the 1.5 year anniversary at the end of February and then for the 2nd year anniversary at the end of August. In parallel, we would also like to start something new, so we will be preparing for that as well, and we will keep moving forward in 2025, both physically and mentally.
Sakuda Yasunori (Team Ninja, Venus Vacation)
In November 2024, DOAXVV celebrated its 7th anniversary thanks to your support.
In 2025, we will continue to change constantly as we have in the past.
And one of those changes, the immersive love adventure game “Venus Vacation PRISM - DEAD OR ALIVE Xtreme -” that we announced will finally be released in March 2025.
We will do our best to provide as many people as possible with the most immersive and cute experience of being thrilled by the girls on screen, so please look forward to it.
Please also look forward to the new developments at Atelier Resleriana, where we will be taking on the challenge of creating new titles for home use.
We will continue to devote ourselves wholeheartedly to all of our titles in 2025, and we look forward to your continued support!
Tomohiko Sho (Omega Force, Dynasty Warriors)
In 2025, we hope that as many people as possible will enjoy “Dynasty Warriors ORIGINS” which will be released on January 17. A demo version is also available, so we hope that those who are interested will have a chance to play it before its release.
And that is not all for ω-Force in 2025. We will continue to work on the development of various titles so that we can deliver the best games for the future, and we also hope to make some interesting announcements before spring ....... We hope you will continue to pay attention to ω-Force!
Yosuke Hayashi (AAA Studio, Rise of the Ronin)
The year 2025 should be a year in which I will be able to announce and deliver a variety of titles, including AAA studio titles that I am in charge of! I hope to make it a year that will further boost the entertainment industry of games.
Junzo Hosoi (Gust, Atelier Yumia)
Atelier Yumia has taken on various new challenges to become the next generation of ‘Atelier’, and we encourage those who have never played ‘Atelier’ before to give it a try.
We are also working hard on “The Red Alchemist and the White Guardian: Atelier Resleriana” as a completely new home video game title in the world of “Resleriana,” and we hope to expand the world of “Resleriana” in a different way from the PC/iOS/Android “Atelier Resleriana: The Forgotten Alchemy and the Liberator of the Polar Night”.
We will also be working on further new titles, so please stay tuned for more information!
Fumihiko Yasuda (Team Ninja, Nioh)
We are grateful that
Rise of the Ronin was enjoyed by players in 2024, especially in Japan. In 2025, Team NINJA will celebrate its 30th anniversary, and we would like to announce and release appropriate titles.
