Shin Megami Tensei character designer Kazuma Kaneko revealed today in a new interview that he has left Atlus after working with the company for 35 years and joined mobile game developer Colopl

Kaneko did not elaborate on his reasons for leaving Atlus, but said he joined Colopl through a recruitment agency in 2023 after applying at numerous companies.

The artist also revealed he is working on a new IP with Colopl and had already designed characters. The project aims to reflect Kaneko's world view and incorporate the latest technology. The team has not determined what kind of game the project will eventually become, so they are devoting themselves to thoroughly fleshing out the IP's world, so they can create not just an RPG, but even a hypothetical anime or novelization.

Kaneko joined Atlus in 1988 and worked on the Shin Megami Tensei and Persona game series. He was involved in creating concepts, world-building, and character designs.
