Arc System Works announced on Thursday it will open Arc System Works Tokyo Studio "Takumi," its new development studio, on November 2.

The company added that the new studio is a "strategic cornerstone for going beyond existing conventional game development frameworks and delivering an overwhelming sense of 'ultimate excitement' to players around the world." Additionally, the company envisions the studio as a collaboration hub with a widespread global reach. The company also announced that it is expanding its recruitment of creators with the opening of the new studio.
