With a video published by Kodansha, Meguro-sensei announced that he has been developing games on his own during his spare time, and he has decided to resign from his position at Atlus to pursue that dream as an independent developer.

The game he’s currently working on is supported by Kodansha’s Game Creator Lab and will be announced on November 6 at the Indie Live Expo Winter 2021.

That being said, Atlus fans should not worry too much. While Meguro-sensei isn’t formally employed by the company anymore, he has left on good terms and will continue to work on the music of Atlus games as a freelancer.

You can watch the video below.

Meguro-sensei has worked on many Atlus games including both the Persona and the Shin Megami Tensei series starting all the way back in 1996 with Revelations: Persona.

Recently, he has been working on the mysterious fantasy JRPG Project Re Fantasy, of which we still know very little.

Of course, you’ll hear about Meguro-sensei’s new game here on Twinfinite as soon as it’s revealed next week.

Proud weeb hailing from sunny (not as much as people think) Italy and long-standing gamer since the age of Mattel Intellivision and Sinclair ZX Spectrum. Definitely a multi-platform gamer, he still holds the old dear PC nearest to his heart, while not disregarding any console on the market. RPGs (of any nationality), MMORPGs, and visual novels are his daily bread, but he enjoys almost every other genre, prominently racing simulators, action and sandbox games. He is also one of the few surviving fans on Earth of the flight simulator genre.
