A change in license plans has made it up to 50 times more expensive for Japanese game developers to use commercial fonts in their games and apps.

    Yeah:

    Yes, you can use them commercially, and even include them within a product that is sold commercially. Usage and redistribution conditions are specified in the license. The most common license is the SIL Open Font License. Some fonts are under the Apache license or Ubuntu Font License. You can redistribute open source fonts according to those conditions.
