DeNA’s Mega-Hit Game Kaito Royale To Be Turned Into A Comic [Social Games]

D

After turning their No. 1 social game Kaito Royale into a novel in February this year, DeNA now inked another cross-media adaptation/licensing deal with their brand: Kaito Royale is now a manga, too.

The comic will be published on Young Jump (shown on the left on the picture below) and Cookie (on the right) next week (in Japanese only). DeNA says the manga will not be based on the Kaito Royale novel but feature an original story based on the settings and characters of the popular Mobage game.
