According to NHK, Naka and former Square Enix employee Taisuke Sasaki have been charged by the Tokyo District Public Prosecutors Office for insider trading. Prosecutors handling the case have shared that the duo had prior information about Square Enix developing a mobile spinoff title for Final Fantasy, Final Fantasy VII: The First Soldier.<\/p>\n<p>With this information in hand, Naka went on to purchase company stock worth \u00a5144.7 million ($1.09 million), as public announcement of the collaboration would skyrocket the stock&#8217;s price. Naka was working with Square Enix until 2021, before he was controversially fired before abhorrent launch of Balan Underworld.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"basic-aside\">Read Next: Star Wars Jedi: Survivor\u2019s IMDA Rating Suggests the Inclusion of Crude Language, Realistic Graphic Violence<\/aside>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/in.ign.com\/sonic-the-hedgehog-sonic-team-project\/177827\/news\/sonic-frontiers-to-receive-second-wave-of-content-next-year-franchise-co-creator-indicted-for-inside\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The developers at Sonic Team have some huge additions planned for the franchise&#8217;s latest game, Sonic Frontiers.
