Synthesized from 3 Yomimono stories · updated Jun 10

Drecom, a Japanese video game developer, has moved into new business areas in 2026. In May, the company launched Drecom Creators Studio, a new indie game studio aimed at supporting small creators and teams. The studio offers developmental knowledge, financial assistance, marketing, and mixed media expansion. It quickly announced its first four support titles: TIMEMOON, Quiet Express Room 909, Beautiful Life Show, and Chill Planet. The studio also exhibited at the BitSummit PUNCH event in Kyoto from May 22 to 24.

Later that month, Drecom partnered with Manga Box to launch Dre Box, a new manga label that adapts Drecom's original novels into manga. The label focuses on fantasy and isekai stories, with four launch titles set to run on the Manga Box platform from June through September. This expansion into digital manga follows the establishment of the indie game studio.

Separately, Drecom addressed reports about the Wizardry intellectual property. The company denied that Atari had acquired the trademark rights to the Wizardry IP, stating that Atari had acquired rights only to the first five Wizardry games from the original rights holder. Drecom said it has no intention of selling the Wizardry trademark rights or other rights it holds, and will continue to hold domestic and international trademark rights for the game series and manage the Wizardry IP brand.
