Xseed announced the hiring of Shinichi Suzuki as CFO of the publisher. Suzuki previously served as president and CEO of Atlus USA until he abruptly left the company in August.

“I have always respected Xseed Games, so this was an opportunity I could not pass up,” Suzuki said in a statement. “This is an exciting time for the industry and our company, and I look forward to navigating a course of success through the exciting changes in store as we advance Xseed’s publishing efforts by bringing even more highly anticipated titles to market across multiple platforms.”

Suzuki was at Atlus USA from 2004 to 2012.
