Japanese mobile company Nepro Japan has announced the acquisition of Star Ocean and Valkyrie Profile developer tri-Ace.
Nepro Japan Group is currently working to strengthen its mobile game business. Together with the acquisition of Mobile & Game Studio, Nepro Japan hopes its acquisition of tri-Ace will double its mobile game sales and aim towards becoming the number one mobile game creator in both scale and quality.
The gaming community lately makes jokes about companies making games that look like "PS3" or "PS2" games. While this is such a nasty dig, there may be some truth to this in the case of tri-Ace.
Sad really. I used to love these guys but man...they just aren't what they used to be.
The Cod games have been using an engine built in the mid 90s. Nothing wrong with using an old engine if they update it. Bioshock used UE2 and looked better than most UE3 games. Arkham knight used UE3 and looked better than most UE4 games.
Sh it does suck but I enjoyed star ocean 6 the most out of any game last year. I thought it was solid af start to finish. My favorite game that year.
I'd love for Sony to get ahold of them.
tri-Ace are teasing a new game announcement for TGS 2018. This year's Tokyo Game Show runs from September 20 to 23.
I'm still blown away with Project Awakening, any other PS4 exclusive is just gravy at TGS.
A few days ago, Square Enix opened a “secret teaser site” for a new mobile game for iOS and Android, and that site has now been updated with some interesting elements.
Where's Valkyrie Profile 3 for console? stop making SO the last 2 games was disappointed.
They should just remake Star Ocean: Till The End of Time and call it a day.
Damn, I was expecting more news related to Star Ocean 5. Maybe a dlc or a patch.
Instead is just Square Enix's mobile fetish again.
