Compile Heart got in touch with Siliconera to clarify some details about Galapagos RPG. Galapagos RPG is a brand similar to "Super Sting" which was a collaboration between Sting, the developer of Yggdra Union, and Idea Factory. A representative explained the reason why Galapagos RPG exists is because more and more Japanese developers tend to make games for the West by changing their style and Compile Heart doesn’t want to move in that direction.
The Galapagos RPG brand is a testimony to designing games for Japanese gamers. However, that doesn’t mean Galapagos RPG titles are necessarily a Japan-only games. The company wants to release more Idea Factory and Compile Heart games in the West and Galapagos is not an exception. Siliconera noticed Compile Heart was looking for a licensor to publish Holy Sorcery Story in North America and Europe.
We’re told Galapagos RPG will have a very surprising collaboration. The first Galapagos RPG title is a fantasy game slated for release in 2013.
