If there’s one thing that fans might expect from a manga publisher, it’s to push into new media via animation or filmmaking, but one of the largest manga publishers in Japan is looking to a different medium altogether with one of its latest ventures, as attendees at PAX West 2025 can discover for themselves, with Shueisha Games demonstrating that gaming can add new audiences — and an entirely new international base of creators — to its already extensive library.
