Atlus operations being sold by parent company; publishing unaffected

Parent company of Atlus, Index, will soon commence selling off subsidiary operations Bloomberg reports. Index recently applied for the Japanese equivalent of bankruptcy protection.

It’s claimed that Atlus USA will be unaffected on a day to day basis for the time being. Dragon’s Crown and Etrian Odyssey — both of which fans are highly anticipating — will be released on schedule says Atlus PR manager John Hardin. “Our games are still shipping on time. Dragon’s Crown will be releasing as intended on August 6.”

Mad Man’s Cafe have translated the report which indicated that bidding for Index’s assets will commence this week. Sales are expected to generate 15 billion yen ($149.9 million USD). Index is to be delisted from the Japanese stock exchange 28 July and will wind up operations this September.
