JRPG developer Imageepoch’s CEO is still missing

Earlier this year, rumors have been afloat that JRPG developer Imageepoch (responsible for games including the Luminous Arc series, Arc Rise Fantasia and the upcoming Stella Glow) might be shutting down, following apparent reports of employees quitting, with a reporter from Otapol finding the company’s office floor completely devoid of people upon their visit.

At the beginning of April, a message on Twitter from game developer Idea Factory popped up, claiming that they are unable to get in touch with Imageepoch CEO Ryoei Mikage. Furthermore, Imageepoch’s official site also seems to be down. That was over a month ago, and now, the entirety of Mikage’s Twitter account has up and vanished from the internet, possibly deleted for good.

We can only speculate what this might mean for the company, but we hope for the best.

UPDATE: It has come to our attention that Imageepoch has since filed for bankruptcy.
