Rising Star USA to take over for Marvelous USA publishing
Rising Star’s managing director, Martin Defries, has said the firm will be taking control over the US publishing arm of Marvelous. Speaking with MCV, Defries said: “We were given an opportunity to take over the US publishing business of our former parent company Marvelous Entertainment, to rebrand that as Rising Star Games Inc and to build a successful subsidiary.” Defries also said Rising Star has “an existing publisher in the US” with “strong roots into the market,” but didn’t reveal the name of the firm. There’s no word at present on how this will affect Marvelous USA’s publishing deal with Xseed Games, which is owned by Marvelous AQL. Rising Star USA’s very first North American title will be Akai Katana for Xbox 360.

Inafune announces new 3DS title Kai-oh
Keiji Inafune’s announced this morning the first full project he’s developing since leaving Capcom a year ago: a 3DS title known as Kai-oh. The game, to be published by Marvelous AQL and developed by Inafune’s Intercept studio, is an action RPG with a pirate theme, but with you playing as a penguin. No, we don’t get it neither. It’ll be out next year.
Inafune’s done some social titles for Japan, but this is the first big game he’s done since leaving Capcom last October. Thanks, Andriasang.
