Many are familiar with the Level-5 company, which has developed high-quality video games, usually focused on turn-based role-playing experiences, and we’ve already seen that with franchises like Ni no Kuni, Yo-Kai Watch, Inazuma Eleven, among others that are quite friendly to the public. However, recently they have admitted that they want to explore new horizons where they are used to, and that would be video games focused on adult audiences.
Through a new interview with the media, the company’s chief executive officer. Akihiro Hino, noted that the company must grow somehow, and that’s why their idea is to expand to create other types of games that may even expand into measured violence. And in the statements, it is implied that they have reached a point of stagnation, so it is necessary to make a turn that can come out like a coin toss, be it good or bad.
Here is the statement:
The creators who can release such cutting-edge titles to the world are incredible,
If I were to take it to an extreme, I would say I want to make erotic games and 18+ games with violence and blood.
Yes, there is an ‘unusual and strange world’ inside me, but I try not to go there, instead doing things from the right side of my mind. However, deep down, I really want to see that unusual world.
Here are the company details:

Author’s Note: A Professor Layton with a dark tone would be a bit odd to see. So these are probably franchises built from scratch so as not to spoil the reputation already enjoyed by the audience.
