NIS America Will No Longer Publish Atlus Games in Europe

posted on by Karen Ressler
Odin Sphere Leifthrasir release will not be affected

Atlus games in Europe. According to Yamashita, NIS America terminated its relationship with Atlus "around ten days ago."

Atlus will also no longer distribute NIS America titles in America.

Yamashita explained the decision:

Atlus became very picky about selecting the European publishing partner after it was bought by minimum guarantee on a title by title basis. I noticed that it was very difficult for NIS America to establish an equal-partnership with Atlus.

Atlus and its European games have contributed a lot to the expansion of NIS America in Europe. I would like to express my greatest appreciation to them for that.

Sega of America announced its acquisition of Atlus USA on March 31.

Atlus games that NIS America has released in Europe include Twitter that this release will not be affected.

Update: Error fixed. Thanks, Dessa.

Thanks to Grace for the news tip
