Dragalia Lost Changes Directors, Upcoming Events And Updates Detailed

Last week, Dragalia Lost director Hiroki Matsuura announced that he would be stepping down and handing his position over to Yuji Okada from BlazeGames. Following the handing over, Okada then proceeded to share what players can expect from Dragalia Lost in the coming month.

The announcement of the handover was made via the Dragalia Lost website, which shared a short message from Hiroki Matsuura explaining that he was leaving the project and passing the role of director to Yuji Okada.

Hello, everyone! This is Matsuura, director of Dragalia Lost.

As of now, I’ll be handing the title of director over to Mr. Okada.

It is a bit sad to be leaving the project, but Mr. Okada has a wealth of experience developing and managing games—including social games. He assisted in the final stages of development for Dragalia Lost, so I have no worries about leaving this game in his hands.

I believe that Mr. Okada’s fresh perspective will allow him to expand the game, both in terms of story as well as game systems. I’m as excited as anyone to see where he takes it!

Like Matsuura, Okada had been involved with the production of Dragalia Lost since before its launch, and Matsuura assured fans that the game would be in capable hands moving forward. You can read Matsuura’s full message along with some words from Okada about the handover here.

Shortly after the handover announcement, Okada posted his first “What’s Ahead for Dragalia Lost” update as director. A summary of the announcements can be found below:
