[Cow Goes Moo]

a year where Atlus’ popular series all gather together

The latest issue of Weekly Famitsu features an interview with Atlus CEO Naoto Hiraoka.

Discussing Atlus’ plans for 2015 and the future of the company, Hiraoka told the magazine, “In 2015, we were able to develop existing IP like Persona 4: Dancing All Night and Etrian Mystery Dungeon. In 2016, starting with Odin Sphere: Leifthrasir, we plan to release a large number of titles. In the summer, we’ll launch the long-awaited Persona 5. Of course, in addition to that we have several unannounced titles. I have no doubt this will be a year Atlus’ popular series all gather together.

“While the release date hasn’t been decided, I want you to also look forward to VanillaWare’s 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim.”

Atlus recently said it was almost finished development on Etrian Odyssey V. Perhaps we’ll hear a release window for that one soon enough?

Look forward to 2017, if old

 

[Mozendo]

Etrian Odyssey 3 Untold!

 

[TheGeniusArcana]

It's about time they developed a sequel to the only one of their games that matters.

 

[DrROBschiz]

Just keep those sweet ass Vanillaware games coming!

 

[Astarte]

Give me more SMT x crossovers so I can attain a form of nirvana. If #FE turned out so well what else can happen?

 

[PantsuJo]

A bunch of ports for Steam.

Easy money.

 

[Ekid]

Between Persona 5 and SMT4 Final, Atlus output is plenty enough for me this year.

I just hope Tears to Tiara 2 was successful enough for them to release Utawarerumono 2 in NA/Europe.

 

[SliceSabre]

Etrian Odyssey 3 Untold!

This will be the best remake if it happens.

 

[Warxard]

Power Instinct

 

[Smooth Operator]

A bunch of ports for Steam.

Easy money.

Yup. Fingers crossed for Nocturne and P4G

 

[Pennywise83]

Confirmed:
Persona -> Persona 5
Shin Megami Tensei -> Shin Megami Tensei IV: Final (teaser of SMTV?)
Etrian Odyssey -> Etrian Odyssey 5

Likely:
Devil Survivor -> Devil Survivor 3

 

[Soriku]

Pls announce another Megaten for PS4 besides Persona 5.

Also it's time for Devil Survivor 3.

 

[Blobbers]

Surely this means Atlus is finally announcing Shin Megami Tensei 5 for PS4 (and NX?) which will use Persona 5 demon assets.

 

[18-Volt]

SMT4: Final, Odin Sphere Leifthasir, 13 Sentinels, Atlus is the true savior of handhelds. Hopefully all of those unannounced titles are for 3DS, Vita and NX.

Give me Persona 5 Crimson on NX, Atlus!

A bunch of ports for Steam.

Easy money.

Atlus is among 3 companies left that are yet to support steam: Atlus, Level-5 and Nintendo. I expect Level-5 will be the first one to give in.

 

[Strangelove77]

CROSS EDGE 2!

Believe it!

 

[tiebreaker]

SMT, Persona, Etrian Odyssey, and Super Robot Wars?? What other popular series do they have?

 

[nadnerb 64]

As a recent Atlus Convert, this excites me to no end. The Japanese game market needs a giant bolster for sure

 

[Dr. Kitty Muffins]

I want to be able to digitally preorder Persona 5 long before it's release date. I doubt I will get that luxury, however.

 

[Guymelef]

SMT, Persona, Etrian Odyssey, and Super Robot Wars?? What other popular series do they have?

Super Robot Wars?

CROSS EDGE 2!

Believe it!

Cross Edge?

What's next? Asking for Metal Gear?

 

[Hero of Legend]

SMT4: Final, Odin Sphere Leifthasir, 13 Sentinels, Atlus is the true savior of handhelds. Hopefully all of those unannounced titles are for 3DS, Vita and NX.

Give me Persona 5 Crimson on NX, Atlus!

I like this idea.

 

[Rymuth]

He returns at last

 

[spiritfox]

Catherine 2!

 

[Leafhopper]

CROSS EDGE 2!

Believe it!

Also Atlus wasn't even involved with the first one.

 

[SmartWaffles]

The lack of Trauma Center in the thread is disgusting.

 

[Soriku]

SMT4: Final, Odin Sphere Leifthasir, 13 Sentinels, Atlus is the true savior of handhelds. Hopefully all of those unannounced titles are for 3DS, Vita and NX.

Give me Persona 5 Crimson on NX, Atlus!

They're going to announce a Persona 5 Crimson on NX when P5 isn't even out till this summer?

 

[ArtHands]

hopefully a persona 4 the golden PC edition or something

 

[elmars369]

Persona 6 announcement incoming!!!

 

[mrjohill]

Y'all think they are gonna do a worldwide persona 5 launch?

 

[18-Volt]

They're going to announce a Persona 5 Crimson on NX when P5 isn't even out till this summer?

Yeah, why not. Gotta support that huge launch in best way they can. The best way is Persona.

 

[BGBW]

Trauma Center x Advance Wars

Two under performing series together at last!

 

[Eolz]

SMT V NX announcement, believe. EO3U would make sense too yeah.

Maybe EOV re-announcement? Just hoping we won't get another P3/4 spinoff.
Would be fun to see some sega IPs too.
Catherine PC port would be awesome.

Edit:

Y'all think they are gonna do a worldwide persona 5 launch?

No because Europe exists.
Doubt it for USA too anyway.

 

[Mdk7]

I really, really hope we get Catherine 2 (or something like that) one day.

 

[Hibiki Kurosawa]

13 Sentinels
Odin Sphere
SMTIV Final
Persona 5
Etrian Odyssey V

That's all their major franchises plus two. What do they have that's unannounced!? I need to know~

 

[Vandole]

The lack of Trauma Center in the thread is disgusting.

Man it seems like the Trauma Team VC port to the Wii U bombed. I think any hope that the series would get a second chance has pretty much flat lined. :-(

 

[pbayne]

In for Catherine 2

Or any smt spin-off really

 

[Funyarinpa]

Persona 5 PC and Persona 5 Portable (Vita) are just dreams, aren't they?

I hope Persona 4 Golden gets a PS4 and/or PC port because my friends will not play it otherwise.

 

[Pellaidh]

I hope it's a new Devil Survivor game. The subseries is way too good to be left at only two games (plus remakes). Some PC announcements would also be cool, considering that Steam versions of games seem popular with Japanese developers these days.

More Catherine would also be cool.

 

[Pai Pai Master]

Just keep those sweet ass Vanillaware games coming!

Emphasis on sweet ass

 

[Flowmoney]

Time for Snowboard kids 3 to happen.

Spoiler

Only I probably still remember that series.

 

[DrROBschiz]

Emphasis on sweet ass

I love having kindred spirits on these boards

 

[Hibiki Kurosawa]

In for Catherine 2

Or any smt spin-off really

Goddamn, anything SMT will have me pissing streams.

 

[Eolz]

Persona 5 PC and Persona 5 Portable (Vita) are just dreams, aren't they?

I hope Persona 4 Golden gets a PS4 and/or PC port because my friends will not play it otherwise.

Absolutely no chance V gets released on Vita. Later NX handheld port, who knows, but there's no point in thinking about one now.
Who knows for PC with Sega now.

 

[delSai]

Time for Snowboard kids 3 to happen.

Spoiler

Only I probably still remember that series.

No, you're not the only one. I fucking loved the 2 games on N64, SBK1 was my first N64 game actually.
Do it Atlus.

 

[Hugstable]

#FE2!

Seriously though, we need a new first person SMT game with some crazy dungeons that warp you around in a hundered places ala Strange Journey.

 

[Jawmuncher]

Hopefully it's a new title and not a sequel.

 

[Dark_castle]

Let one of them be Radiant Historia 2. Please.

 

[Sn4ke_911]

Well P5 isn't announced for europe yet, is it?

 

[Asd202]

Let one of them be Radiant Historia 2. Please.

Oh well I'm stupid.

 

[AlucardGV]

A bunch of ports for Steam.

Easy money.

Persona 5 PC and Persona 5 Portable (Vita) are just dreams, aren't they?

I hope Persona 4 Golden gets a PS4 and/or PC port because my friends will not play it otherwise.

you guys aren't even trying anymore

unannounced titles makes me think about new games, not portings

Watch out with that, people here have PTSD from Eridanus
