Atlus teased a little bit about an upcoming RPG on Friday. The stuido, the developers behind the Shin Megami Tensei and Persona series, and Katsura Hashino – director of ATLUS titles including Persona 5, Catherine, Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne, and others – are launching a new internal studio called Studio Zero.
The new game, while not much information is available, is in the earliest of stages of development. The game will be a complete departure from the Shin Megami Tensei and Persona series, and will be a new IP. Hashino is tapped to be the game’s director, along with other legendary ATLUS names. Along on the journey will be Shigenori Soejima from the ATLUS Artwork Team, responsible for creating the character art of the denizens of this new fantasy world, and Shoji Meguro from the ATLUS Sound Team, who will breathe life and depth into the new world as music composer.
