Koei Tecmo has announced restructuring plans, which will see the company establishing a new AAA development studio.
Koei Tecmo’s most recent output was Rise of the Ronin, developed by Nioh and Ninja Gaiden studio Team Ninja, and published by PlayStation Studios exclusively for PS5.
Hayashi also directed Metroid: Other M. Koei Tecmo says he will also be serving as executive vice president of the company’s entertainment division.
Following the game’s launch, director Fumihiko Yasuda said Team Ninja intends to build on the action RPG’s open world structure with future projects.
