"We believe we can respect each other as creators and make games together. And I think with Hyung-Tae, we can even enjoy the hard parts.... Seeing my own vision and ideals come into focus like this, and finding someone whose direction aligns so closely is something I've rarely experienced before in my career."
"Consider even the surface-level possibilities here: The campy horror of Resident Evil blended with the melodramatic beauty of Stellar Blade; the frenzy of Hi-Fi Rush amped up by the anime stylings of Goddess of Victory: Nikke; The Evil Within III, but make it sexy."
Unbound Inc., founded by Shinji Mikami, has been acquired by Shift Up, known for Stellar Blade and Goddess of Victory: Nikke. The acquisition will provide full support and distribution for Unbound's unannounced games. Mikami, a key figure in Japanese horror gaming, expressed excitement about collaborating with Shift Up's CEO, Hyung-Tae Kim. The partnership aims to blend horror elements with unique artistic styles, targeting the global PC and console market. Mikami's previous studio, Tango Gameworks, was acquired by Microsoft, leading to his departure in 2023.
