Koei Tecmo is reorganising its internal studios to concentrate talent and improve output, a move that briefly sparked concerns about Team Ninja's future. The publisher insists the shake-up won't interrupt development of major Team Ninja projects such as Nioh, Ninja Gaiden and Dead or Alive.

  • Koei Tecmo is realigning teams across its studios to prioritise its most productive development groups.
  • Initial reports suggested Team Ninja might be split up and reassigned, prompting fan worry over key franchises.
  • The company has clarified that core development for Nioh, Ninja Gaiden and Dead or Alive will remain intact and continue as planned.
  • The restructuring is presented as an efficiency and talent-consolidation effort rather than a dismantling of established studios.
  • No immediate cancellations or major schedule changes for Team Ninja-led titles have been announced alongside the shuffle.
