North America, and More

Monster Farming / Action Title Farmagia and Striking New Teaser for DAEMON X MACHINA: Titanic Scion

TORRANCE, Calif., — May 30, 2024 — Marvelous USA, Inc. and XSEED Games today shared a localized version of parent company Marvelous Inc.’s second annual ‘Marvelous Game Showcase,’ which debuted today at 3:00pm PT. President Suminobu Sato hosted the showcase and was joined by key members of development teams to provide updates on titles announced in last year's event, and announce new regional and global initiatives for the Marvelous family of companies.

Farmagia (formerly Project Magia): Product Manager Takehiro Ishida revealed the official title of the project, Farmagia, and presented the game’s opening animation, giving gamers an action-packed look at the cast of characters and powers they wield. Ishida-san also shared details on key characters in the game, designed by popular artist Hiro Mashima, including Ten, the protagonist who often acts before thinking; Arche, his childhood friend who balances both kindness and a competitive nature; Chica, another childhood friend with a more reserved demeanor; and Lookie-Loo, Ten’s sidekick and de-facto mascot. The title is planned for a global release in 2024.

STORY OF SEASONS: The next, as-yet-untitled entry in the beloved franchise continues its development as the team focuses on improvements to the visual presentation and natural environments. Series Manager Hikaru Nakano joined to debut a fresh look at the results of their efforts, highlighting how aspects such as updated natural lighting and festival fireworks have been improved to enhance immersion and atmosphere. The project remains in active development and will be fully revealed at a later date. In the meantime, Nakano-san confirmed new gameplay features including a player-controlled glider and the return of fan-favorite pets.

Amusement Section: Marvelous Inc. supports more than just PC and console entertainment and announced a number of new arcade initiatives including NARUTO: Arcade Battle, which will be available in North America this summer. Players will experience the world of NARUTO on a massive 50” screen, where they’ll engage in intense ninjutsu battles and collect plates to reach the highest rank they can! Arcade titles for Japan release only were also presented.

Indie Partner Lineup: The Marvelous family continues to invest in helping creative and exciting visions from smaller indie developers become a reality with global support for titles! Titles introduced for worldwide release include Bitsummit 2023 Grand Prize winner Death the Guitar, where players become an electric guitar fighting with the power of death metal to avenge their owner, planned for a 2025 release; and Moonlight Peaks, the supernatural-themed vampire farming/life sim title from Dutch developer Little Chicken, scheduled for 2026 release.

Players can choose to play as either Subaru or Kaguya, two new Earthmates with a twist; they will use the power of dance, rather than farming, to communicate and interact with the world around them. This new approach to interacting with the world comes with non-combat tools, including parasols and drums; series staple weapons like swords; and brand-new weapon types to experiment with, including bows and talismans.

DAEMON X MACHINA: Titanic Scion: First revealed during last year’s Marvelous Game Showcase, DAEMON X MACHINA: Titanic Scion once again closed out the show, where President Sato-san shared an evocative look at Marvelous’ First Studio’s mech-action sequel.  Additional details including platforms and a release window will be announced at a later date.

Sega Saturn - Simulation Zoo

Title: Simulation Zoo / シミュレーションズー

Developer: Computer & Entertainment Inc. (C & E) Taiwan

Publisher: Soft Bank

Release date: 7 February 1997

Catalogue No.: T-18611G

Genre: Simulation

The title of this game says it all really. A simulation game based around a zoo. Never played it and unlikely that I ever will play it in the future. One that will stay in the collection box forever.

Simulation Zoo is pretty unique as it stands as C&E's only licensed video game for a Sega (and Sony) system - their previous works for the Sega Mega Drive and Nintendo Famicom had all been produced without a license and released only in mainland Asia.

C&E, once among the largest entertainment software companies in Taiwan, is best known for Super Fighter (Kuai Da Zhi Zun / 快打至尊), an MS-DOS fighting game also known as Fatal Encounter; and Beggar Prince (Xin Qigai Wangzi / 新乞丐王子), a Mega Drive RPG based on the Mark Twain book Prince and the Pauper. C&E also made one game for Taiwan's game console, the Funtech Super A'Can - Super Taiwanese Baseball League (Chaoji Zhonghua Zhibang Lianmeng / 超級中華職棒聯盟).

Buy Now Pay Later Market: Key Trends and Growth Opportunities

The global Buy Now Pay Later (BNPL) market was valued at USD 6.13 billion in 2022 and is projected to grow at an impressive compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 26.1% from 2023 to 2030. This rapid expansion is driven by several factors, including the growing demand for flexible payment solutions and the increasing adoption of e-commerce.

In 2022, the total volume of BNPL transactions was estimated to exceed USD 200 billion, signaling a shift in consumer behavior toward more manageable and accessible payment methods. One of the key drivers behind the rise of BNPL is the growing consumer preference for flexible payment options. BNPL services allow customers to make purchases without the immediate financial burden of paying upfront. Instead, they can spread the cost of their purchases over a period, often in interest-free installments. This flexibility reduces the pressure of large, one-time payments and helps consumers manage their budgets more effectively, making BNPL an attractive option for many.

The explosion of e-commerce is another major factor fueling the growth of the BNPL market. As online shopping becomes more prevalent, consumers are increasingly looking for seamless, efficient, and secure payment methods. BNPL services integrate smoothly into the online checkout process, providing a hassle-free payment experience that encourages more spending. With BNPL options, shoppers can complete their transactions quickly without having to pay the full amount upfront, which has become an appealing feature for online shoppers.

Additionally, the adoption of digital wallets and the growth of online retail platforms have further accelerated the BNPL trend. As digital payment solutions become more integrated into the daily shopping experience, both consumers and merchants are seeing the benefits of BNPL services. For consumers, it offers convenience and financial flexibility, while for merchants, it helps drive higher sales volumes and repeat business by attracting customers who might otherwise be deterred by the upfront cost of large purchases.

Regional Insights

North America

North America dominated the global Buy Now Pay Later (BNPL) market in 2022, accounting for over 29.0% of the revenue share. The growth of the BNPL market in this region can be attributed to the presence of numerous major players in the sector, alongside a strong ecosystem of fintech companies. These companies are actively innovating and expanding their service offerings. One notable trend is the increasing number of partnerships between fintech firms and entertainment companies to offer BNPL services for booking travel and entertainment experiences. For example, in September 2021, Uplift, Inc., a prominent BNPL solution provider, partnered with SeaWorld Parks & Entertainment, Inc., an American theme park and entertainment company. Through this collaboration, Uplift enabled SeaWorld customers to use BNPL payment options for booking hotels at its theme parks in San Antonio, Orlando, and San Diego. This partnership highlights how BNPL is becoming integrated into various consumer industries beyond traditional retail, providing more opportunities for growth in the region.

Asia Pacific

Asia Pacific is anticipated to witness the fastest growth in the BNPL market, with a projected CAGR of 28.4% over the forecast period. The region's rapid population growth, coupled with a rising number of tech-savvy consumers, is driving the adoption of digital payment solutions and e-commerce platforms. In countries like China, India, and several Southeast Asian nations, the increasing availability of smartphones and internet connectivity has made BNPL services an appealing option for consumers engaging in online shopping. This adoption is supported by a diverse retail landscape, where established e-commerce giants and innovative startups are collaborating with BNPL providers to offer flexible payment methods to consumers. These partnerships are helping to expand the customer base of both BNPL providers and retailers, resulting in higher sales volumes and enhanced consumer satisfaction. As online shopping continues to thrive in the region, BNPL is expected to become an even more integral payment method, driving the market's expansion in Asia Pacific.

• The global intelligent document processing market size was estimated at USD 2.30 billion in 2024 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 33.1% from 2025 to 2030.  

Key Companies & Market Share Insights

The BNPL market is moderately fragmented, with a range of companies offering various solutions to meet the diverse needs of consumers and merchants. As BNPL services become more widely adopted, they are gaining traction not just for online shopping but also for in-store purchases, expanding their footprint across multiple retail channels.

One of the most notable developments in the BNPL space came in March 2023, when Apple launched its new feature called Apple Pay Later, which adds BNPL capabilities to the Apple Pay digital wallet. This feature allows users to pay for online purchases in four equal installments over six weeks, with the first payment due at the time of purchase. Additionally, Apple Pay Later offers users the ability to apply for interest-free loans ranging from USD 50 to USD 1000, directly through the wallet app. This feature allows customers to shop both online and in-app without incurring fees, enhancing the user experience and providing greater financial flexibility. Apple’s move underscores the growing trend of big tech companies entering the BNPL market, offering more flexible payment options to consumers and reinforcing the growing shift toward digital wallets and seamless payment solutions.

The increasing popularity of the BNPL payment method is not limited to online shopping. It is also becoming an attractive option for customers making in-store purchases, as it allows them to spread the cost of purchases over time without paying interest. This is driving a shift in how both traditional retailers and e-commerce platforms approach payment options for customers. As a result, many merchants are now adopting BNPL solutions to provide customers with more purchasing flexibility, thereby enhancing customer satisfaction and fostering brand loyalty.

The adoption of BNPL by various e-commerce platforms is expected to continue to grow, contributing to the market's overall expansion. As more retailers offer BNPL as a payment option, it is anticipated that the global BNPL market will continue to experience robust growth, creating new opportunities for both BNPL providers and retailers.
