[leroidys]

yes

edit: fuck yes

 

[Tinfoilhatsron]

Oh christ that art is delectable. Soejima is ascending into godhood lately!

OH FUCK HASHINO IS INVOLVED. HYPE INSTALL ACTIVATE.

Oh fuck that's great now I'm even more excited. I hope Sega actually gives them a budget to make this!

 

[duckroll]

Are they just unveiling a new studio or is it a new game?

They just announced the new studio, which is developing a new game, which they will be unveiling on Friday.

 

[SatelliteOfLove]

I'm really looking forward to Atlus tackling a brand new challenge and "starting from zero again" after the team has worked their ass off on stuff like SMT and Persona for over a decade. Let's hope they really blow us away.

And, hopefully (and to shadow SE's similar problem), regaining the ability to put out bangers quickly and effectively after getting particularly difficult ones out.

 

[Qvoth]

lookin dope

 

[Derkon]

Can't wail!

 

[Voliko]

Fucking finally. It's been years since an original Atlus IP

 

[dezzy8]

I'm sold. Just no long delays like P5 please.

 

[DataGhost]

Cool, so they announced the studio but the studio is announcing a new game so they're announcing the studio's announcement if I got that correct.

YASSSSSSSSSS BITCH

NOMURA AND YASUE SLAY IN 2017/2018

HASHINO AND SOEJIMA SLAY(AGAIN) IN 2019

basking rn.

Cozy/Kaneko please help complete my dreams.

 

[BY2K]

Just saw this on Famitsu's twitter. Reveal in 2 days.

Director of P5 confirmed involved.

Good luck getting this in this life.

 

[mdubs]

So where does this leave P Studio? Is Zero Studio just its new name?

 

[Vic_Viper]

hope this is an action oriented combat system a la Devil Summoner. Cant wait to see more!

 

[exmachina64]

Oh christ that art is delectable. Soejima is ascending into godhood lately!

OH FUCK HASHINO IS INVOLVED. HYPE INSTALL ACTIVATE.

Soejima's always been this good.

im gonna guess it has dragons cause of the emblem on her shoulder

 

[Niks]

Nice, hopefully its PS4 bound.

 

[spiritfox]

Sign me up.

 

[Deleted member 17706]

That sounds amazing.

Which means it's probably going to be part of an announcement that Atlus is getting into mobile and this is their bullshit menu-driven gacha card battler Granblue ripoff.

Hard to stay positive in 2016...

 

[Inuhanyou]

Why are you jinxing it? Why would you do this to everyone's hopes and dreams?

 

[SerRodrik]

!

I've loved everything that team has done since P3, including Catherine, so consider me onboard. I'd love to see what that team can do with a medieval RPG. That art is on point.

 

[sense]

How long did something like Catherine take in development? I just feel like the long dev cycle for persona 5 was just an exception die to various external factors

 

[hughesta]

Oh shit I'm fuckin hyped

 

[redhood56]

Excited to get more details on this.

 

[Kayhan]

This girl is an elf. I can tell because of the pointy and elongated ears.

 

[Morrigan Stark]

That armour.... :O I think I'm in love

 

[decoyplatypus]

Exciting news.

 

[SatelliteOfLove]

Soejima's always been this good.

He's now GOODER GOOD. The BETTEREST BETTER.

Seriously, his techinique with color and the flow of form is astounding now.

 

[The Last Wizard]

Am I missing something or are people getting hyped just off one image, staff aside.

 

[falconxcrunner09]

So who is going to work on persona then?

 

[Deleted member 17706]

Why are you jinxing it? Why would you do this to everyone's hopes and dreams?

Because it's been the story like 80% of the time whenever a new cool-sounding JRPG or, hell, Japanese game is teased.

I sincerely hope that my worries turn out to be complete unfounded and this is a full-blown title on the scale of Persona or even bigger.

 

[Tyrant Rave]

Cool! Really excited to see what they're up to with this.

Wonder what's next in the pipeline for Megaten and its spin-offs.

 

[NeonZ]

So who is going to work on persona then?

Probably another big break before the next main Persona title. Which seems kind of odd considering how they have an usable engine and assets already.

 

[Kayhan]

So who is going to work on persona then?

Persona 6 in 2022. Book it.

 

[Voras]

All in on this. Now that Atlus did the upfront work with building the engine for P5 I want to see everything they can do with it with SMT and other new IP.

 

[LuuKyK]

Holy shit

I am very much in

 

[SolidSnakex]

So who is going to work on persona then?

Well, it seems like Hashino was working on both at the same time. So, I guess he could keep doing the same going forward.

 

[Ray Down]

Persona 6 in 2022. Book it.

Then delayed to 2024.

 

[nickgia]

I mean has Atlus released a mobile game yet? if not......maybe good vibes will prevail



Edit:Seriously would be surprised if it not on PS4/Switch.

Please... I need the good vibes. We all need the good vibes.

 

[Chie Satonaka]

I'm interested.

Was... this any good? I don't remember hearing about it.

 

[Vital Tundra]

She's hitting all the right spots design wise for me.

 

[Inuhanyou]

So who is going to work on persona then?

Persona can have a rest for now, or they can farm spinoffs out to other companies like they did with P3/4 merchandising.

Am I missing something or are people getting hyped just off one image, staff aside.

Staff and the promise of a new IP and brand new concepts is just hype worthy in general.

 

[-Horizon-]

For some reason the first thing I thought of when seeing that art was the Kojima armor space helmet person.

 

[Frozenprince]

I believe in Hashino.

 

[Rozart]

Nice! A full-on fantasy rpg. Excited to see what the world's like.

Persona 6 in 2022. Book it.

Hissss.

 

[CSX]

A new rpg from Atlus thats not SMT, Persona, or EO???!!

Exciting times yall! EXCITING TIMES!

 

[the_sun_king]

Good luck getting this in this life.

Hey now, we'll get it in the West. Just, y'know, over 6 months after Japan.

 

[ShdwDrake]

Is this the JRPG resurgence?

 

[Pennywise]

Yes, Soejima!

And Hashino.
Hopefully Meguro is also on board.

 

[Holundrian]

This girl is an elf. I can tell because of the pointy and elongated ears.

Masterful analysis can you make a video and go into greater detail?

Spoiler

I'm not trying to be an ass, just wanted to play along cause I've found this legit pretty funny to me coming right of the heels of seeing someone in dota 2 do a 9 hour long analysis on patch notes.

--------------------------------

Damn the bomb.
Super curious on what this game will be. I kind of expect them to make it as different as possible from Persona as they can.
Game is going to be faaaaaar out probably. :-/

Edit: Ah I nvm I thought the persona team was rebranding itself as studio zero, but it's a actually a new team, interesting.
That means the game might be farther along than I assumed.
