Shin Megami Tensei & Fire Emblem Crossover Project

Shin Megami Tensei X Fire Emblem has not one, but two directors. There’s chief director Mitsuru Hirata, who we heard from earlier today. Atlus’ Eiji Ishida of Radiant Historia fame is also a director, and he too shared a message on the official Shin Megami Tensei X Fire Emblem website.

Here’s the translation from Siliconera:

It’s a pleasure to meet you all!

I am Atlus’ Eiji Ishida, the development director and the chief designer for battles. I previously worked as the chief designer for Shin Megami Tensei IV and the development director of Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey.

Hirata, who was the supporting director of Strange Journey, and also provided countless “questionable” maps (in the best way possible, Hirata-san!) in the level design for the game, is who I’m teaming up with as the director of Shin Megami Tensei X Fire Emblem.

Earlier today we posted about two new screenshots of Shin Megami Tensei x Fire Emblem / Illusory Revelations #FE, one of which came from a developer blog post by director Mitsuru Hirata. Now, the folks over at Siliconera have translated that blog post. It’s fairly lengthy, so I’ve placed it after the break.
