Apart from Pro Evolution Soccer news, like the series? recent PlayStation Plus woes, Konami hasn?t been much of a player in the console space as of late. This doesn?t mean the publisher wants out of console game development, however. According to Konami Europe President Masami Saso, console games remain integral to the publisher?s business. Interestingly, there are even plans to expand Konami?s portfolio.
Saso spoke on this and more during a recent interview with GamesIndustry.biz. The Konami boss told the publication that console game development is still at the forefront of the publisher?s business plans. In addition, innovation in the console space will also help Konami expand its influence in the mobile market.
