When the time came to mid-October, Animic finally launched the public beta version of the Mithril platform to the market. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Not only the Japanese version, but also the English version.

In the English version, there is currently a bonus game in the download client, which is "Kadokawa All-Stars".

-- This online game is free, this online game is free, this online game is free.

Because it's important, say it three times.

The first game of the English version of the Mithril platform includes EA, Ubisoft, and West Wood, which are heavyweight companies, and Iki originally found Blizzard's father, but Blizzard's father doesn't seem to be very interested in Senxia's platform on their side.

EA's side is the most abundant place to receive goods on the Mithril platform, and they get works that can be put on the shelves, including "Need for Speed 2", "FIFA" and the Football Manager series, as well as the online game "Genesis Online" represented by EA.

And more importantly, this is just EA using these works to test the market waters, and if the online sales are reliable at that time, they will make more works into electronic versions for sale.

Mori Xia doesn't really have a big opinion about games like Need for Speed and FIFA, and what he cares about most is Genesis Online.

This game, called "ultima_online", is one of the originators of online games, and the development team of this game is the later origin_systems.

So far, the total number of players in this game is 100,000, which is more than half of that of Kadokawa All-Stars.

-- Don't think it's a small half.

This game is a point card pay-to-play game, and Kadokawa All-Stars is also a completely unprofitable free-to-play game so far.

Paid games can have half the traffic of free games, which is already very good.

According to the feedback from Aki's side, EA thinks that "Kadokawa All-Stars" can achieve such a success, which is a big event for online games, and now the other party will integrate the login with the Mithril platform, and try it on their own side, it seems to be quite valuable, it just so happens that their first expansion has only been launched recently, so it is better to try the water now.

"--So I don't really understand, Kadokawa All-Stars have been losing money all along, why is Kadokawa investing more now?"

In the company, Ayana, who just got the news, seems to be a little confused.

Yes, after the Mithril platform went public, Kadokawa made additional investments, and although Sega did not keep up, they are also studying whether there is a possibility of moving this platform to DC.

"Such a stable online rate, as well as the advertising effect that comes with it, these are very good achievements for the game. "It's Lihua who is looking through the data sheet, although today is a rare weekend off, but because of the public beta of the platform, the animic club is working overtime.

"Lihua, what you said is wrong, Kadokawa doesn't care about these~" Qianjia, who is half of Kadokawa's insider, said a slightly different fact at this time.

"Huh?" Lihua, who was looking through the documents, suddenly stopped.

Qianjia didn't intend to explain to Lihua, but poked Senxia, who was like a dead fish next to her.

"I feel like I've been hollowed out......"

In the morning, I just followed the rehearsal of the drama club as a "concubine palace Qianzao" in the morning, and in the afternoon, I stayed in the company, and Senxia, who had entered the energy-saving mode, didn't want to move at all.

Then Qianjia poked Sen Xia again: "Explain it to Lihua!"

Since the launch of Kadokawa All-Stars, sales of novels related to game characters have generally increased by 2% to 5%, and overseas purchases have increased significantly, and Kadokawa's popularity in the Omi region has also increased, which is the reason for further investment. It wasn't Senxia who had his body hollowed out who spoke, but Aki, who had been standing next to him.

"I've already discussed this with my father. "Chika also turned her head at this time, "After the official launch of Kadokawa All-Stars, it will be changed to a different name, and we will include more game characters to build a more complex world view." ”

-- This is the point of Qianjia's talk today.

"Other characters?" After hearing Qianjia's words, Lihua and Ayana both looked at each other.

"To put it simply, it's about expanding to other fiction characters, game characters, and even anime and manga characters. Qianjia smiled.

"Ahh

"Smack!" Chika snapped her fingers, "That's right!"

Yes, this is what Senxia said before about the super robot war in the Dota world.

Originally, this should have been said by Sen Xia, but seeing Sen Xia's loveless face, Qianjia said it herself.

"Tsk. Qianjia glanced at Sen Xia next to her dissatisfied. If it weren't for the fact that Sen Xia had really been squeezed dry, Qianjia would definitely make Sen Xia look good at this time.

"To put it simply, we want to use these characters to build a new worldview, and then we can include all of these characters, just like a super robot war. Qianjia added.

"To put it simply, I have more work to do......

Sen Xia finally spoke, but his first sentence made people want to slap him.

"What about Super Robot Wars......" Lihua tilted her head, although she has made up a lot of new ones recently, but it's only limited to that, and she still doesn't know much about the game industry or something.

"Super Robot Wars is a robot battle SRPG game developed by Banpresto Company, and the biggest feature of this game is that it contains robot characters from various animations, but other than that, the story itself has its own main story. ”

Yi Ji explained to Lihua.

Lihua nodded, she didn't seem to understand, but if it was reasonable, she understood.

"Anyway, right now, our Sakura Manji and Kei-chan characters can be joined, and in addition, I've already contacted J.C. Staff and Clamp, and the heavenly Otina in "Girl Revolution" and Sakura Kinomoto will join as the first batch of characters. Qianjia smiled.

"Well, although I don't think it's useful. Senxia's weak complaint sounded again.

"......" Qianjia's anger gauge has already accumulated half of it because of Senxia.

"But isn't it the increase in sales? In this case, it should be better to promote other works, right?" Lihua was a little puzzled.

"But this kind of game, no one likes it in China at all, if you want to make a DC vs. Marvel, I think the people of the United States should find it more interesting. Senxia complained again.

"......" Qianjia's anger gauge is already 75%.

"But isn't that what Sen Xia Jun meant from the beginning?" Lihua knew the purpose of Sen Xia's original development of the game, but what Sen Xia said now...... Isn't that frustrating?

"That's different," after saying a few words, the current Sen Xia seemed to be finally alive, and he began to say a few more words at this time, "My target is South Korea, Duwan and a certain eastern power, these three are the cornerstone of our future." ”

"So, what do you think about this, and what are you going to do about the worldview and background?" asked Senka, asking Mori Xia's thoughts.

"Hmm...... Let me take a good rest, well, it's not in a hurry now, just fool around, and wait until we find a way to get this game to a big eastern country, and then do it seriously!"

Senxia waved his hand casually.

"......" Qianjia's anger gauge has risen to 90%.

"There's still time. Lihua had been looking at the data and intelligence before, and after hearing Senxia's words, Lihua remembered the information above.

"So there's no need to worry. Senxia closed his eyes, then leaned back on the sofa with a look of enjoyment.

Well, it's true that in the recent period, Senxia has not had much time to rest, and today Senxia was able to find a time to rest, and he had decided to just lie down until he got off work.

"Well, but advance preparation is definitely needed, my next step is to consider cooperating with Jump, I've already asked my dad to inquire about the news. Qianjia said her future plans.

"That's still early," Sen Xia said slowly, "If you cooperate with them now, but it doesn't bring publicity to Jump, maybe people won't want us to cooperate in the future!"

"Sen, Natsu, Jun. "Qianjia's anger gauge has reached 100%, and she has entered a state of unbearable endurance at this time. Her hand gently patted Senxia's shoulder.

"Hmm......?"

Feeling the chill over her shoulders, Mori Xia finally opened her eyes.

Then, Sen Xia saw the kind smile on Chika's face.

"Ahh

"Sen Xia-kun, if you have so much thought to refute me, why don't you put forward two constructive suggestions?"

"Uh......" Mori Xia straightened up.

There was no way, the black aura exuded from Qianjia's body was too terrifying, and Senxia couldn't help but straighten his waist.

If you want to think about it, of course Senxia has it.

"With that in mind, I think it's almost time for us to enter the market of a big eastern country, and now is a great opportunity for us. ”

Yes, now is a good opportunity.

At this time, if you go to a big eastern country, you can still seize the opportunity and take the road of "Legend", so that the road of legend has nowhere to go.

Well, I just don't know if I'll be killed by the legendary fans across dimensions?

No matter what, even if it's an online game of Sword Art Online, this kind of thing will be fine!

Such a happy decision!

Senxia made a willful decision in his heart.

Then, Mori Xia saw Chika's burning gaze again.

"......," Sen Xia scratched his head, and then continued, "A certain eastern power has been on the rise recently, and online games should develop well if they are on their side. Japan is too small, and for the sake of our future, we will definitely need another existence that can support us in the future. ”

It's true that Nintendo and Sony are two giants, but my big penguin empire doesn't bother you either!

Anyway, Brother Pony is now working under us, and if we don't take the road of the Big Penguin Empire now, it's a waste of resources!

"But what about profits? The level of consumption over there is not high. Lihua asked.

"There's no hurry, and if we adopt a new method of online charging, we can squeeze a lot of money even in a big eastern country. ”

Yes, it is perfectly possible for Senxia to do that.

But there's a problem that Mori Xia is here in Japan, and if you make it too angry, you might be hacked.

At this time, it really needs a top tank character to come out.

Hey, by the way, it's similar to the "journey" on "history", this is a fun game!

On the one hand, it can make money, and on the other hand, it can attract local tyrants, although many people are scolding, but it is indeed making a lot of money, which has caused a trend.

Senxia said that if you get another vest out, it will be almost enough.

Happiness has always been contrasted, this is like a pig company agent of the Yamaguchi Mountain game, everyone has always regarded this World of Warcraft as a positive model, and then despise the game of the Big Penguin Empire, but when the pig company canceled the point card to the World of Warcraft, only launched a monthly card package for consumption, many people felt at this time, in fact, the Big Penguin Empire is not so bad.

Senxia really felt that he was too talented at this time.

Get a vest in front of you, not only to make money, but also to disperse firepower, when your own family becomes a "conscience", this is simply great.

"What do you want to do about this, Sen Xiajun? I'm sorry, I don't know anything about a certain big country in the East. "Lihua doesn't know much about the country across the sea.

"To put it simply, I plan to work with those Internet cafes and then let them promote them. ”

This is a strategy that Senxia has already thought of, but it needs to be used at this time, and Senxia has taken it out.

And in Senxia's opinion, the time is almost ripe now.

At this time, it's time to pick peaches!

At this time, Senxia was also thinking about whether it would be better to make a game like CS on his side, which would be more conducive to seizing the market.

A certain crossfire in the Big Penguin Empire, this is the dream of 300 million mice......

After making money, things will be easy to do after that, and with money on Senxia's side, you can do whatever gentleman games you want.

By the way, I'll leave this matter to Iki!

At this time, Qianjia put her hand on Sen Xia's shoulder.

"Yo Xi, since Sen Xia-kun has a strategy, then you can do it yourself!"

“...... Huh?"

......
