Video game publisher Sega, fresh off the success of its live-action Sonic <\/em>films, is looking to adapt more games into films or TV shows. Specifically, Sega says it’s in the early stages to produce live-action adaptations of Atlus games, like persona <\/em>and Shin Megami Tensei<\/em>. <\/p>\n

Sega revealed this bit of news to IGN<\/em><\/span>, telling the outlet that it wants to expand how it tells stories, and its plans to make this a big part of its business strategy. Or to put it another way, some recent live-action game adaptations have raked in a ton of money at the box office, including its own Sonic <\/em>movies<\/span>and it wants to keep that money train rolling.<\/p>\n

JRPG franchise persona<\/em><\/span> <\/em>sounds like it might be the first game to get the live-action treatment as part of Sega’s new adaptation-focused initiative.<\/p>\n

\u201cAtlus’ worlds are filled with high drama, cutting-edge style, and compelling characters,\u201d says, Toru Nakaharaon, a lead producer behind the live-action Sonic <\/em>movies and Sega’s head of entertainment productions. \u201cStories like those from the persona <\/em>franchise really resonate with our fans and we see an opportunity to expand the lore like no one has seen\u2014or played\u2014before.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cTogether, Sega and Atlus are working to bring these stories and worlds to life through new mediums and for new audiences,\u201d added Nakaharaon.<\/p>\n

Of course, this early on Sega didn’t really have much else to say about these projects, when to expect them, what forms they will take, who is involved in their production, nor where they might end up. All Sega told IGN <\/em>was that it’s currently talking to various studios and producers about any future adaptations.<\/p>\n
