Chapter 459
Among the companies OTK Company has invested in, the one with the highest valuation is CarOS, followed by FaceIt and OTK Games.
The first place is unshakable, but it was widely predicted that the second and third places would be reversed within a few years. This is because OTK Games is growing that rapidly.
Currently, Lost Fantasy Online has recorded the first or second-highest number of concurrent users in every country it services. There are still many countries where it has yet to be launched, and once it receives a license (panho) and begins service in China, sales will more than double.
With the dual success of Lost Fantasy M and Lost Fantasy Online, sales and net profits have surged, and the incoming cash has been steadily piling up in the coffers.
Ichikawa Shigeru created several masterpiece games besides Lost Fantasy during his time at Pentagon. Later, Pentagon merged with Linix to become Linix Pentagon, and due to discord with the management, he left with the development team to establish OTK Games.
Fortunately, he became independent with the rights to use the Lost Fantasy IP, but in return, he transferred all the copyrights of the games he had previously developed to Linix Pentagon.
Another problem is that Linix Pentagon also has the right to use the Lost Fantasy IP. In other words, two companies ended up using the same IP.
As expected, when Lost Fantasy M and Online became huge hits, Linix Pentagon quickly released several games under the Lost Fantasy name.
The quality of the games was terrible, amounting to nothing more than gacha games trying to extract money through in-app purchases. Even those were shut down after about a year of operation.
