Wakfu to be published by Square Enix in North America

Ankama’s Wakfu, a tactical turn-based MMORPG, will be published in North America thanks to Square Enix.

Wakfu – which also has a TV series produced in France – is an anime-style game, featuring 12 classes with 25 spells, customizable characters, and an environment that responds to player actions (such as mining ore can prevent that resource from appearing there again). Wakfu has a similar game play to many strategy RPG titles.

Ankama also developed and published Dofus, which has 35 million registered users but remains mostly popular in Europe.
