Through a bizarre business decision in the Land of the Rising Sun, Namco Bandai will change its name to Bandai Namco as discussed by a directors’ meeting last week, translated by Gamasutra. In the business meeting, all subsidiaries decided that the company will be renamed to Bandai Namco.
Reasons for swapping the name is to raise the value of its brand overseas outside of Japan. The change will come in effect on April 1 of this year.
