NIS America to cease publishing Atlus titles in Europe

After the release of Odin Sphere Leifthraser on June 24, NIS America will stop publishing Atlus titles in Europe. NISA claims that they've had problems working with Atlus for European releases ever since Atlus was bought by Sega in September 2013. Naturally, the split is going both ways; Atlus will similarly no longer publish NISA games in North America.

In the wake of this announcement, several Atlus titles published by NISA in Europe have received permanent digital price cuts, found below:

PlayStation Network:

• Dragon's Crown (PS3 - €9.99/£7.99; Vita - €9.99/£6.99)
• Persona 4 Golden (Vita - €9.99 / £6.99)
• Tears to Tiara II: Heir of the Overlord (PS3 - €9.99/£7.99)

Nintendo 3DS eShop:

• Etrian Odyssey IV: Legends of the Titan (€9.99/£8.99)
• Etrian Odyssey Untold: The Millennium Girl (€9.99/£8.99)
• Persona Q: Shadow of the Labyrinth (€19.99/£17.99)
• Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Summoner - Soul Hackers (€9.99/£8.99)

Nintendo is publishing Tokyo Mirage Sessions ♯FE (which is actually a crossover between Fire Emblem and Shin Megami Tensei, which Persona spun off from) in all regions--including Europe, incidentally, on June 24. NIS America isn't the only publisher Atlus used for Europe, but they were certainly a prominent one.
