In the past, Atlus has worked with outside companies to publish and distribute its games in Europe. Past partners include NIS America and Koch. Today, however, games will be handled internally.

GamesIndustry reports that a new team has been created, which will allow Atlus to be in charge of the European publishing of its own titles. They’ll be located in SEGA Europe’s offices in London. This will allow Atlus to better support fans with special edition sets and products that are extended to North America and other markets.
