Nintendo on how Dragalia Lost is being developed and future Cygames titles
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Mobile, News | 0 comments
With past mobile apps, Nintendo has taken the lead on development. The likes of Super Mario Run, Fire Emblem Heroes, and Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp have been handled by its own internal teams while DeNA has handled the back end.
With Dragalia Lost, which has come out of a new partnership with Cygames, the approach has been a bit different. Cygames designed it initially, and Nintendo “got involved at the planning stage and are now developing the game together.”

This information comes from Nintendo’s Tatsumi Kimishima…
For the smart-device business, we will continue the services for existing applications while also releasing new applications in order to increase Nintendo’s presence in this business. The efforts we have made to date have yielded certain responses to our goal of expanding the number of people who have access to Nintendo IP.
