Rage of Bahamut developer Cygames has invested 70 million JPY (circa US$680,000) in Japanese game studio Miracle Positive, developer of the Japanese crowdfunding success story Airship Q.
The studio plans to use the funding to complete the RPG sim title for release on Sony PlayStation Vita in Japan, according to a statement from Cygames.
As reported earlier, Cygames’ most popular title is the card battle game for smartphones, Rage of Bahamut. The game passed 10 million users worldwide at the beginning of 2013. The company’s social game portfolio has acquired over 20 million registered users since the company’s launch in May 2011.
