The developer of Fate Grand Order Lasengle will help lead Sony’s new push into mobile gaming.
Sony is betting on all mobile games. The billion-dollar gaming maker has announced that it is changing its main focus to include PCs and mobile phones, and plans to use Fate Grand Order, its only major mobile hit, as a template.
In a recent business segment report, Sony executives confirmed that Lasengle is not only making new premium, high-quality mobile games for its PlayStation division, but also helping to create synergies with other projects and teams.

The size and capacity of high quality gaming is something we are committed to when it comes to creating gaming IPs.
Fate Grand Order is something we’ve been working on, and we bought the game development team at Lasengle and turned it into a whole new subsidiary.

Lasengle joined our group to develop and operate the game and develop new games.
