NIS America announced today that they are working together with Nicalis, Inc. to develop an all new action game, Cave Story 3D for the Nintendo 3DS. Cave Story 3D is scheduled to be released this summer in Europe.

“I feel great possibilities working with Nicalis. They’re both skilled and dedicated with making no compromises. I think fans of the original Cave Story will be pleased with this latest incarnation.” said NIS America Producer Jack Niida. “Also through this partnership, we would like to bring new life to the legendary game and make it accessible to a new range of audiences.”

Since its foundation in 2003, NIS America has operated under the philosophy of “entertainment for all,” and brought games that satisfy its many customers. NIS America introduced its first video game Phantom Brave in 2004, and since then have been constantly releasing multiple video games and anime. Now the company plans to introduce its first 3D title in 2011.
