In an official confirmation on social media, Japanese fighting game specialist Arc System Works has revealed that it is the developer behind the new Switch release Another Code: Recollection.
Cing closed up shop years ago, so it’s no surprise to hear that someone else has handled it, but now we have official confirmation. Here’s a rough translation, courtesy of Google:
“Arc System Works Co., Ltd. was in charge of the development of the software “Another Code Recollection: Two Memories / Door of Memory” for Nintendo Switch™, which was released today.”
Although Arc System Works is known for its seminal fighting games, it is also responsible for games like Chase: Cold Case Investigations – Distant Memories and Jake Hunter Detective Story: Ghost of the Dusk.
Earlier today, the original game’s director and lead artist Taisuke Kanasaki (who also worked on Hotel Dusk) confirmed his involvement in this new version of Another Code, while thanking Nintendo and its staff for making it possible. Here is another (rough) translation:
“As an original staff member 20 years ago, I was able to deliver Another Code to everyone again! It’s all thanks to Nintendo and the hard working staff! Everyone, please enjoy Ashley’s adventure!”
