Tecmo Koei Europe Ltd. proudly announced today its official merger between developing powerhouses TECMO and KOEI, to form brand new company Tecmo Koei Europe Ltd (TKE).
In a move that brings together two of Japan’s biggest gaming companies, TKE will offer a new library of games to European audiences while continuing to thrill fans of existing franchises and titles.
The first title released under the new TKE banner will be Ninja Gaiden Σ 2 exclusively for the PLAYSTATION 3. “Featuring new characters, gameplay, and developed by the award-winning Team NINJA, Ninja Gaiden Σ 2 is the perfect vehicle with which to launch the new company”, said Will Curley, VP of Sales and Marketing. “This is a momentous occasion for both KOEI and TECMO. With some great quality titles coming from both sides, such as Undead Knights and 
Quantum Theory from TECMO, and Warriors: Legends of Troy and Trinity: Souls of Zill O’ll from KOEI, TKE will quickly become one of the major players in the videogames industry”.
In April 2009, KOEI CO., LTD. and TECMO, LTD. merged to form TECMO KOEI HOLDINGS CO., LTD. The combined organization owns and operates a valuable portfolio of universally-praised entertainment properties, a leading distribution system, worldwide network of sales offices, and world-renowned development studios. TKE is a member of TECMO KOEI HOLDINGS group. Electronic Theatre will keep you updated with all the latest from Tecmo Koei Europe.
