Swine Flu will also affect Square and Koei E3 presence

Develop reports that both Square Enix and Koei will have limited E3 presence this year because of Swine Flu in Japan, with teams from each studio prohibited from attending the show. Square Enix will not be sending their Kingdom Hearts team, whilst Koei may have several teams not travelling to the event in Los Angeles.

However, both studios promise that their European and American staff will make sure they have a strong representation at the show – alongside a somewhat diminished number of representatives from Japan.

Capcom have also recently pulled their Dead Rising 2 team from attending the event due to Swine Flu concerns.
