Telenet Japan Co., Ltd. (
Riot
[edit]The Riot division came into existence in 1991 when Telenet Japan was expanding in the country.[citation needed]
However, because Telenet was starting to lose sales in 1993, the company went through extensive restructuring which resulted in the closing of a few subsidiaries. Some staff employed at Laser Soft and Riot were transferred to another subsidiary, Wolfteam. The same year, several key developers of the PC Engine games Tenshi no Uta I & II left Riot to found Media.Vision and work on a new RPG franchise, Wild Arms.[citation needed]
Riot was also known for employing graphic artist and later game director Eiji Kikuchi, as well as music composer Michiko Naruke.[citation needed]
