Atlus is no more

[Breaker deGodot]

Well. Shit. This came out of nowhere.

 

[TheBadGamer]

Well this was some sand news...

*cry's in a corner*

 

[Andres Cyanni Halden]

Looks like I should try the Persona games now, before they disappear...

 

[antipunt]

No more Persona?

*darts eyes violently*

*twitch*

 

[Tony2077]

there not dead not yet anyway as far as i can tell um English forgotten

 

[Enzeru92]

am... am... in Denial I'll wait for Demon Souls forever!!! and I'll definitely play Catherine /CRY!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[zHellas]

Aww... They're the company that made Contact!

 

[Volothos]

This is a dark and terrible day.

December 21st 2012 came early for gaming...

 

[Ickorus]

Just a publisher, the developers will still be making those games you guys love. (For instance Demon's Souls was only published by them in America, Europe had Namco Bandai)

 

[Wildcard5]

I am truely disheartened. Atlus was, overall, a company that I could count on for a challanging and engaging gameing experience. I now wonder what it is that will happen to their titles that they were developing that have yet to be released...

get released what else do you expect to happen they were just made into a internal dev team and usa atlus is under different management all together

 

[Mordreich]

ARGGG! Deploy Velociraptors!

 

[Korten12]

Wait, what??????


I...I loved Atlus. They were seriously one of my all time favorite publishers.

So...does this mean no Demon's Souls 2?

Spoiler

Well this came straight out of nowhere. I guess a Demon Soul's 2 is out of the question?

Its a shame to see such a great company that puts out such unique titles go.

Demon's Souls 2....NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Well you should all be happy to know that Demon's Souls was made by From Software and Sony so if DS2 is in development it wont be effected.

 

[Lightslei]

This was a stupid move....

especially from a business perspective.

They may want more control, but Atlus is a name that almost anyone who's into games can recognize easily. ...

 

[Vaer]

Yeah, this is a sad day ( when I read the thread title I died a little inside ), it might not be that bad since it appears they'll still continue to make games, they've just been made an internal development team but still... I wonder how this will affect any possible persona 5 game in the future since persona 3&4 were my favorite games on the ps2 .. heck most shin megami tensei games were

 

[Thaius]

Well I admit I wasn't their biggest fan, but I've enjoyed most of their games that I've played, and I know some of them are extremely well loved. This is a sad day indeed.

It may still be released, but Atlus was the one who brought it over to the U.S.
No one else would.

well Sony did say it was foolish of them to not have brought it over from the get go so maybe the second time they will?

 

[Jfswift]

Well that sucks. Altus made some great games like Disgaea and Demon's souls. They were the alternative. *grumbles*
