Square Enix veteran Yuusuke Hirata has apparently left the company he had worked for since 1985 and joined Aquaplus as new head of its strategy division. Hirata had served as head of Square Enix's fifth production team since the Osaka-based studio's foundation in 1995. In this position he acted as producer of Parasite Eve 2 and many of the company's sports games, most notably the All Star Pro Wrestling series.

Aquaplus is best known for bringing Leaf's popular dating simulation To Heart 2 to PlayStation 2 and Dreamcast.
