Nice artwork. But Baba at S-E? Wha?
Well, glad he did not cause berseria is the best tales of game.Baba was not the producer on Berseria, so that left people wondering what happened to him. At least now we know.
Studio is being helmed by Hideo Baba of Tales of fame.
Interesting, so they poached one of the main Tales guys from Bamco for this.
At least you can get/guess what Octopath Traveler mean, which is 'a traveler of eight paths' is what I understand.Who the hell decides of the project names for these things?
Not as bizarre as Project Octopath Traveler.
Isn't Baba the creator of Tales? Lol...Da fuck happened to Bamco then?
Yeah, the actual creator of Tales bailed during Phantasia's development to start triAce.No he was a producer on the series for some time.
He most likely left after Zestria reception.
Some details from the site that people aren't talking about:
- This is a studio that is made to launch a brand new RPG IP. Not a single game
- It is also a recruitment campaign for the studio, they are hiring planners, designers, and programmers
- The spec they are hiring for is "high end systems", and they welcome experience in UE4 and Unity
- They are also looking for Battle planners and programmers with Action RPG experience, which indicates the direction of the combat
- This is a subsidiary of S-E Holdings, and not just an internal studio of S-E Japan, this is similar to Tokyo RPG Factory, their own company

And now they are stuck with mobile games!

They just released two console games last year...
Didn't both bomb, I guess they can also be an assistant developer for SE.
Exist ArchiveStar Ocean didn't do well sales wise but was a decent game from what I played. I'm not sure what the other console game was..

2028 book it!
exclusively not on Switch is the more likely outcome tbh ;_;Calling it now: Nintendo Switch exclusive.
The name ISTOLIA originates from the Greek word, "story" and is central to the studio's primary value.

Is it a just coincidence that Berseria ended up being one of the better Tales...
Probably, because he also produced Tales of Hearts and Tales of Vesperia, and people liked those quite a bit.
