Ghostlight community manager Ross Brierley posted a blog on the official Ghostlight website recently, announcing that the publisher will now also be working on bringing Japanese games over to the West for the Nintendo Switch.
The update mentions that Ghostlight have managed to acquire the requisite license from Nintendo for doing so, and that even though they’ve enjoyed working on PC games, working on the Switch is something that they’ll also be focusing on going forward, instead of remaining exclusive to PC games. In fact, they’re already working on localization of a Switch JRPG.
Ghostlight Games, the publisher that brings Japanese games to the European market and have recently started releasing PC (Steam) ports of JRPGs is going to announce the PC version of a JRPG today.
Ghostlight:
You might remember the Japanese action game I’ve been talking about for what seems like an eternity now? :) Well, the great news is that I’ve been told that we’ll be able to announce the game early next week.
This has been one of the most requested games recently, and we’ve been receiving loads of emails asking us to release this one on Steam, so I’m really looking forward to telling you all about it next week!
To make this news even better, this game is almost ready for release, so after what should be a short beta, starting almost immediately after the announcement, we should be able to announce a release date for the not too distant future. Yay!
