At Cygames, we are committed to bringing the best in entertainment to the world stage through global development of our IPs. We do this not only through the translation and localization of our titles, but also by planning tournaments and fostering communities for our properties all over the globe. Through these activities, we hope to create content that transcends borders and cultures.
Following the release of Shadowverse, a game created as a global esports title, Cygames established an in-house team in 2017 to handle the international expansion of our IPs. That same year, our first overseas branch was founded in South Korea, followed by a second branch in Taiwan in 2018. Through our work both within Japan and beyond its borders, we're dedicated to delivering our titles to players all around the world.
We seek to promote our works overseas in a way that respects the culture and market of each region. To achieve this, we consult our overseas branches as well as local publishers during translation and promotion. At Cygames, we understand the importance of diversity and collaboration, especially in the creative field.
