In 2024, the game Visions of Mana was released. This is a project in the popular Mana franchise, which belongs to Square Enix. It is developed by Ouka Studios, which is part of NetEasy.
Visions of Mana was well received by players and critics, but wasn’t a huge hit based on Steam reviews. 3 months after release, the game only has 1,500 player reviews.
It has become known that Visions of Mana director Ryosuke Yoshida has left Ouka studio and moved to Square Enix. He spoke about this on his social networks:
I left NetEase Ouka Studios on October 31st. We were a new studio, but we were able to release Visions of Mana. I am grateful to the development team and NetEase for their support. It was a very good experience. Thank you all. I’m happy to announce that I joined Square Enix in December. I will do my best to create a game that many people will enjoy!
At the moment, it is unknown what game Ryosuke Yoshida will work on at Square Enix.
