It is best known for developing games in the Sonic the Hedgehog, Dragon Ball and Street Fighter franchises. The company was founded on March 6, 2000 by several former SNK<ref>Template:Cite news</ref> and Capcom employees, including Street Fighter, Fatal Fury, Art of Fighting and The King of Fighters co-creator Takashi Nishiyama and Hiroshi Matsumoto.
HistoryEdit
In 2000, Takashi Nishiyama resigned from SNK, and was soon approached with offers for employment by various Tokyo-based companies. At the same time, SNK's core development team members left the company, assuming Nishiyama had plans. Nishiyama decided to form a new company in Osaka, named Sokiac, to avoid having to move his team members and their families. To better reflect its mission to create games for a variety of genres and platforms, the company later changed its name to Dimps, short for "Digital Multi-Platforms".<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> The company was supported by capital from Sammy, Bandai, Sony Computer Entertainment, and Sega.<ref name=GBASonicDimps>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
