According to the Automaton portal, two former Square Enix employees were suspected of trying to make money on Dragon Quest Tact. Allegedly, shortly before the announcement of the game, they intentionally bought cheap shares of the Aiming studio in the amount of $ 336.3 thousand, in order to then sell them more expensive.

Square Enix confirmed the information about the arrest of former employees and said it was cooperating with the authorities.

The company also said that it has taken measures to prevent such situations. She launched a system that obliges employees to notify Square Enix before trading its shares. In addition, this system prohibits trading shares of Square Enix and its partners before game announcements.
