GungHo Online Entertainment America has tapped developer Signal Studios to make a new mobile game.

The deal brings together GOEA, the U.S. division of Puzzle & Dragons maker GungHo in Japan, with Signal Studios, which made the action-strategy game Toy Soldiers and the free-to-play Ascend: Hand of Kul. The companies hope this combination will help an Asian company make inroads in North America.
