Atlus’ New Studio Zero Undertakes New Fantasy RPG

Atlus and Persona 5 director Katsura Hashino are launching a new internal studio called Studio Zero. The studio is in the earliest of stages of development on a new fantasy RPG title, but a few things are apparent from the outset – it will be a complete departure from the Shin Megami Tensei and Persona series, and a return to the roots of where the Japanese games industry began with fantasy role-playing games.
