Cosmo Machia has acquired the rights to vertical scroll shoot ’em up game Triggerheart Exelica, the company announced.
The Tokyo-based developer filed a trademark for the Triggerheart Exelica logo on January 27, but this is the first official confirmation of its acquisition.
Going forward, Cosmo Machia will produce and distribute Triggerheart Exelica with the goal of making the game known to users worldwide. For areas that cannot be commercialized, the company is seeking licensees to further increase awareness.
