1UP reported today that Atlus Games is being dissolved by their parent company, Index Holdings.  In the (realistic) best case, we’ll see some layoffs of middle management types and a more efficient business overall.  In the worst case, they’ll be a broken shell of their former selves; invoking pity and bittersweet memories of gamers everywhere.  Their Twitter feed is currently silent on any further details.

It’s been reported that Index Holdings is attempted to focus their attentions on a few core competencies, and I hope that this means we’ll continue to see the Atlus brand putting out some great games.
