Atlus USA has sent out an official statement regarding the company’s situation in light of Index Corporation’s bankruptcy.

The publisher had only good news to report. In its remarks, Atlus said that it continues “carrying on day-to-day activities, business as usual.” As is the case in Japan, Atlus USA’s titles are still scheduled for launch on their previously-announced dates.

“Currently, Index Digital Media, Inc. and the ATLUS brand are unaffected by the Index Corporation proceedings in Japan. We’re carrying on day-to-day activities, business as usual. Shin Megami Tensei IV and Dragon’s Crown are still releasing on July 16 and August 6 respectively, and we’re licensing and publishing third-party titles such as R.I.P.D: The Game and Daylight. We want to thank all of our fans for their outpouring of support.”

Some troubling news dropped in for Atlus during the wee hours of the morning earlier today. Index Corporation, Atlus’ parent company, filed for bankruptcy in Japan.

Following the news, Atlus confirmed that the development and release of its current games – Dragon’s Crown, Shin Megami Tensei IV DLC, and Etrian Odyssey: The Millennium Girl – are unaffected for now.

“The PlayStation 3/PlayStation Vita versions of Dragon’s Crown, both the retail and digital download versions, are set to be released on July 25 as it was originally scheduled. We apologize for worrying our users.”

“Multiplayer and save data sharing functionality for Dragon’s Crown is conducted via the PlayStation Network. Because of this, multiplayer services are guaranteed.”

“Additionally, downloadable content that’s currently in development for Shin Megami Tensei IV, as well as the retail and demo releases for Etrian Odyssey: The Millennium Girl are set to proceed for the time being.”

Meanwhile, the official Persona series PR Twitter account apologized to those concerned about the company and said, “we want you to believe that. Atlus will live forever!”

The third Zero Escape game is not yet in production, according to creator Kotaro Uchikoshi.

Uchikoshi told GamesRadar that he has the title’s story “developed in my head, but it hasn’t really gone into production yet.”

Uchikoshi couldn’t say when the team will begin making the new Zero Escape. However, Uchikoshi did say, “maybe in the near future we can proceed.”

The story itself I pretty much have developed in my head, but it hasn’t really gone into production yet. There’s no promises yet, but maybe in the near future we can proceed. This is all from the fact that I was invited to GDC to speak, and that we were nominated for best narrative. That sort of led to the users’ voice saying, “We want the next one,” and that is pushing it. Thanks to the users, the company has pushed forward with thinking to the next level of actual development, but there’s no promises just yet.
