Man, what a blunder that sale was!
Imagine if SEGA had managed to hold onto Visual Concepts and the 2K brand to this day... They would've been several times the size they are now.
Desperate times though. I suppose they were just all out of cash by this point. Fun to think about the what-ifs though!
The name 2K Games came around later, when Take 2 bought the rights (and developer) off Sega, so it probably did start off as a way to shorten it (although from 2K10 onwards it isn't exactly shorter).
How is the story in this? I know it’s a loss story and socials based than the Persona games and more focused on the dungeon crawling side so is it still good? I was thinking about grabbing it while it’s cheap on Switch for something else to play when the Switch 2 arrives.
Shows what I know, I always thought the 2K was just shortening 2000/ That's why all these new games were called 2K20 or 2K25, just shortening the year.
