Silent Hill developer and pachinko machine producer Konami has opened up a new studio in Osaka, Japan.
The developer and Yu-Gi-Oh publisher just recently celebrated its 50th establishment anniversary last month, and in a press release last week it announced that it has just opened up another studio, Konami Osaka Studio (thanks, GamesRadar). According to the press release, Konami Osaka Studio is a “developmental relocation of the existing studio and comes with the concept of ‘Creators First,'” explaining that it is “characterised by a well-developed environment where creators can demonstrate their full potential.”
The press release didn’t explain what it means by “Creators First” outside of that, and whether it means internally or externally, so we’ll have to wait and see what comes from that. It did also note that Konami’s “next-generation [Research & Development] centre, ‘Konami Creative Front Tokyo Bay,’ is in the process of construction,” so it sounds like the company is going all in on its future after quite a few quiet years. There’s also a positive point for employees, as Konami has “substantially,” raised its base-salary. Always good to hear devs are getting paid more!
