Square Enix revealed that they have expanded in South East Asia with Square Enix Smileworks! Located in Indonesia, the branch currently has 23 employees with 3 of its employees are from Square Enix Japan.
The reason why it is located in Indonesia is because the region has been growing economically and people in the region have more purchasing power. Smileworks will publish Square Enix games in the region and eventually, develop games specifically for South East Asia.
In addition, Smileworks will also create artwork for social games and recently they held a contest to get artists for Nirvana Genesis, a card game in Japan.
