Said Yamamoto, who claimed that Square Enix is not currently negotiating any buy-outs, "We are now more focused on developing product that will help our expansion in the Western markets and of course this includes more fully localized titles than ever before."
He continued, "In addition, we understand the importance of more global simultaneous releases and this too is a priority. Finally, we are also carefully examining options available for adding product from Western developers to accelerate our growth outside of Japan."
Yamamoto detailed acquisition as "an option" that would help in this endeavor.
