Atlus seem to have pretty ambitious plans when it comes to 2022. In an interview with Famitsu, Shinjiro Takada shared his hopes for the company in 2022, giving some insight on what we might expect.
2022 is a challenge
I chose “challenge” as the keyword for 2022, with the hope to release a game that will become a pillar for Atlus. All of us at Atlus are working hard to develop this game so that it will be interesting and satisfying for everyone, so please look forward to it.
Exactly what Takada could be referring to is anyone’s guess really
It’s unlikely to be the anticipated “Project Re Fantasy,” as that title is confirmed to be developed by Studio Zero, a separate Atlus division lead by the producer of the Persona series. Another title mentioned earlier called “Project Pen” comes to mind when thinking about future Atlus projects, but we don’t have any info besides it’s existence, thanks to a rating from The Australian Classification Board.
We are ready to be surprised by Atlus though.
