Nintendo Now Fully Owns Monolith Soft

Bring Us More Epic RPGs!!!!
By Todd BlackDecember 11, 2024
Monolith Soft, Nintendo

In the gaming space we live in now, it’s very common for big publishers to go and buy up or “acquire” certain teams to help “expand their overall growth and gaming lineup,” and that is part of the reason that the gaming industry is in such the state it’s in. However, with companies like nintendo, it doesn’t really buy up teams unless it really feels it can add something to them. Enter Monolith Soft, the RPG giant that brought us the Xenoblade Chronicles saga ever since the Wii days.

You might have thought that Nintendo fully owned the company, and they technically did, as they bought 80% of the company’s market shares over a decade ago and then later bought up 96% of the company. As of earlier in 2024, the heads of Monolith Soft kept 4% of the company’s shares. However, according to Automaton Media, that has now been bought up! That means the company is now fully within The Big N’s structure, and that’s honestly a positive here, as the publisher has been using them very wisely over the last seven years or so.

To that end, there are already teases and rumors about what the team is cooking up for the Switch 2 platform, and if it’s anything like Xenoblade Chronicles 3, we will be feasting.
