Square Enix continues to expand its global outlook with the announcement that it is now acting as the Japanese publisher of Acivision’s Quantum of Solace.
The Bond title, released late last October in line with the motion picture, will see a simultaneous launch on March 26 for the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, PS2, and Wii. The film was released in the region last month.
The news is part of Square Enix’s continuing efforts to expand its presence westward, whilst bolstering its own catalogue of titles in its native country. Last November Square Enix announced a landmark partnership with Western developer Gas Powered Games, days before stating that it would be publishing the WiiWare title LostWinds in Japan (a deal which Frontier’s managing director David Walsh told Edge was “vital” for the game’s success in the region.)
“The global video game market is expected to maintain sustainable growth thanks to geographical expansion and diversification of its customer base," said Square Enix company President Yoichi Wada.
Earlier in the month Square Enix had entered a publishing deal allowing it to distribute a number of Ubisoft titles across Japan. The Activision deal continues to cement Square Enix as the industry’s transcontinental go-to publisher.
