Mighty No. 9 was launched through a Kickstarter campaign in 2013, led by Keiji Inafune, but faced numerous delays and failed to meet backers' expectations. Comcept, the studio founded by Inafune in 2010, has been formally dissolved, marking the end of its operations. The studio struggled with the development of Mighty No. 9 and faced backlash from backers in 2015. A partnership with Fuze Entertainment to continue development did not materialize, and Comcept's other projects, including ReCore, did not impress. In 2017, Comcept was absorbed into Level-5, and Inafune left in 2024 after launching a Mega Man-inspired NFT collection.
