Marvelous USA Inc., (formerly Xseed Games), is an American video game company founded in 2004 by former members of Square Enix USA with the goal to localize Japanese games for American market.[1][2]

Xseed Games later became a subsidiary of Japanese game company Marvelous in 2011, providing the localization and publishing services for video games and related materials.

In 2024, the company only retained the Xseed Games brand for third-party published titles.

History

Former logo and current third-party brand

In 2007, AQ Interactive, Inc. announced the acquisition of Xseed Games, with share transfer before June.[3] The deal was signed on April 24, and the share transfer was completed on June 26.[4]

Xseed Games joined forces with Marvelous Entertainment (MMV) to co-publish their games in North America in 2008.[5][6][7] At E3 2008, MMV USA and Xseed Games distinguished the games that would be co-published under the agreement and the games that Xseed would publish separately.[8]

In April 1, 2009, AQ Interactive announced increasing its stake of Xseed Games from 55% to 90% on the day of announcement.[9]

On April 14, 2009, Xseed Games announced its partnership with Japanese developer Nihon Falcom over localizing and publishing Ys Seven, Ys: The Oath in Felghana, Ys I & II Chronicles, and the Trails in the Sky trilogy for the PlayStation Portable in North America.[10][11] Xseed Games later published Ys: The Oath in Felghana and Ys Origin as their first released on the Steam digital distribution platform in 2012.[12]

In March 2013, Index Corporation's Atlus Online Division online business unit was purchased by Marvelous AQL and transferred to Xseed.[13] On April 6, MarvelousAQL announced that XSEED JKS, Inc., the publisher's trading name, would be renamed as Marvelous USA Inc., with the Xseed banner being used for video games while the Marvelous Online banner would be used for mobile and social titles.[14][15][2]

In October 2019, company cofounder Ken Berry was named its president, CEO, and CFO.[16]

In August 2024, Marvelous announced that Marvelous USA would undergo a major restructural change. The Xseed Games banner would now be used for third-party titles, while the Marvelous USA banner would be used for Marvelous' titles.[17]

Controversy

In 2019, former Xseed localization producer Brittany Avery discovered that she was not credited for her work on the enhanced PlayStation 4 port of The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel after leaving the company the previous year. As a result, Xseed revealed their policy of not crediting staff members in games if they are no longer employed at the company at the time it releases. The practice, also done by some other companies in the industry, was widely criticized.[18][19]
