Cygames Opens New Offices in UK and US

Tokyo-based video game publisher and developer Cygames announced its expansion beyond the Western market. The company announced opening two new branches, Cygames America in the United States and Cygames Europe in the United Kingdom, which will complement the existing branches in Korea and Taiwan.

Cygames plans to push their Granblue Fantasy and Shadowverse franchises more actively in the West, which is what the expansion is about:

The next major release from Cygames should be the fighting game Granblue Fantasy Versus: Rising. The game is being developed for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and PC.

The release of the fighting game is scheduled for this year, and the beta test, initially planned for May, has been postponed indefinitely.
