The company's name is coincidentally similar to Arc System Works, with whom it has a partnership.[2] Despite their similar names, and the partnership between them, neither company owns the other. Aksys Games publishes many games for Arc System Works in North America, and has even assisted the latter in releasing the Bit.Trip series in Japan.[2]
Aksys is also the North American distributor for the European publisher Rising Star Games.[3] In addition, Aksys localized Nihon Falcom's role-playing game Tokyo Xanadu for the American market in 2017.[4]
