Namco Buying D3

February 13th, 2009
According to a Japanese press release translated by Adriasang, Namco Bandai is staging a buyout of D3 Publisher. The Soul Calibur publisher has already secured 70% of D3’s shares and hopes to acquire the remaining 30% for full control of the company.

D3 Publisher is best known for publishing various Naruto and Ben 10 titles, as well as Dark Sector and Puzzle Quest.

Namco hopes that the acquisition will help both companies out, complementing each other. It will also cooperate in their overseas expansion efforts, as well as maximize D3 content’s reach through Namco’s toy, amusement and video divisions.
