Electronic Arts Victor

Electronic Arts Victor (エレクトロニック・アーツ・ビクター株式会社) (aka EA Victor, EAV) was a joint venture of Electronic Arts (EA) and Victor Musical Industries [1] (now Victor Entertainment [2]) started in September 1992 in Tokyo, Japan. [3] It primarily published and localized EA products for the Japanese market, with the intention of making the EA brand known and accepted in that country. [4]

In December 1997, EA bought out Victor's remaining interest in the company. As a result, it became of wholly-owned subsidiary of EA and was renamed Electronic Arts K.K. (EA Japan). [5]

EA later started a similar joint venture in 1998 with Square called Electronic Arts Square (EA Square). [6]
