Visions of Mana总监吉田亮介离开网易加入史克威尔艾尼克斯
网易工作室Ouka Studios的《Visions of Mana》总监、前卡普空游戏设计师吉田亮介已离开网易，并于12月2日在其Twitter(X)账户上宣布加入史克威尔艾尼克斯。关于他离开Ouka Studios的原因，目前信息有限。
吉田亮介在Ouka Studios期间，是开发最新《Mana》系列游戏《Visions of Mana》最杰出的成员之一。他和来自卡普空和万代南梦宫的团队成员一起，成功推出了一款画面精美、升级革新的游戏。游戏于2024年8月30日发布后，吉田亮介最终宣布离开工作室。
在同一篇Twitter(X)帖子中，吉田亮介高兴地宣布他将于12月加入史克威尔艾尼克斯。然而，关于他在新职位上将参与的项目或游戏标题，目前尚未提供更多信息。
网易缩减日本投资
鉴于网易（Ouka Studios的母公司）据报道已开始缩减对日本工作室的投资，吉田亮介的离职并不令人意外。彭博社8月30日的一篇文章披露，网易及其竞争对手腾讯在通过日本工作室发行几款成功游戏后，决定止损。Ouka Studios是受此转变影响的公司之一，网易将其在东京的员工人数减少到仅剩少数员工。
两家公司也都在为中国市场的复苏做准备，这需要重新分配资金和人力等资源。2024年金摇杆奖上，《黑神话：悟空》获得最佳视觉设计和年度最佳游戏等奖项，最能体现这种复苏。
2020年，由于中国游戏市场停滞了一段时间，这两家公司决定在日本押宝。然而，这些娱乐巨头和小型日本开发商之间似乎存在摩擦。前者更热衷于将特许经营权推向全球市场，而后者则专注于控制其知识产权。
尽管网易和腾讯并不打算完全撤出日本市场，鉴于他们与卡普空和万代南梦宫的牢固关系，他们正在采取保守措施以减少损失，并为中国游戏行业的复苏做好准备。
