“I still fondly remember the applause and congratulations from Sony Computer Entertainment executives when Crime Crackers made it in time for the launch of [the original] PlayStation.”
“We’re currently working on five titles, for console as well as mobile, including both original and external intellectual property.”
“We also have stuff with a more realistic style rather than anime style.”
Harumi Umezawa, Media.Vision Production
“I think we’ll be able to unveil the title that’s furthest along in about a year at the earliest, but that’s up to the publisher.”
“We’re mainly looking to recruit staff with high-end game development experience. That includes people with Unreal Engine experience, lightning and Look Dev experience, and rigging artists.”
Kentaro Motomura, Media.Vision General Manager
“I’m working on an original title with creators I know well from my previous job [at Sony Interactive Entertainment].”
“It feels like the Japanese games market is losing its vigor. Some companies have no choice but to put their efforts into the overseas market because of this.”
“We want to vitalize the Japanese game market first and foremost. And as a result, create titles that are widely adopted overseas.”
The magazine also features artwork from Media.Vision’s new titles, including a woman with a ponytail, a Tachikawa-esque urban area going up in flames, and shrines going up in flames.
