Level-5 has formally dissolved the Level5 comcept subsidiary established with Keiji Inafune

Level-5 has formally dissolved Level5 comcept, the subsidiary company established in cooperation with Keiji Inafune, on April 30 this year. This revelation was made via a telegram sent today (May 15) to shareholders.

Level5 comcept was established in June 2017 with Keiji Inafune as the head when he joined Level-5. This subsidiary would later become known to be in charge of developing Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time. However, Inafune ended up leaving the whole group in mid-2024. This prompted Level-5's CEO Akihiro Hino to overhaul the game's development structure this March.

Earlier this year on March 3, the company set up a new office in Osaka, which also inherits all the businesses previously conducted by Level5 comcept—including the Fantasy Life i development team. As such, there are no more reasons for Level-5 to keep intact the subsidiary that has lost the key figure.

In case you are wondering, the telegram message published by the liquidator could be translated as follows:

Our company has been dissolved following a decision made at the shareholders' meeting held on April 30, Reiwa 7 (2025). As such, those who have credit with our company should apply within two months from the day following the publication of this notice. If there are no applications made in the aforementioned period, it will be excluded from the settlement.
