When you think ofAtlus, the first games that come to mind are likely the Persona ones. Maybe you’re more of a Shin Megami Tensei fan? Ah, there’s Catherine too, the oddity in the mix that isn’t part of Megami Tensei at all. And now there’s Metaphor, something with a brand-new visual identity.

Atlus may be best know for the Megami Tensei as series, but it’s made so much more than that. And actually, its made a shocking number of games in general considering its size. The Megami Tensei is big enough, but let’s see just how many games Atlus has made altogether.

How Many Non-Megami Tensei Games Has Atlus Made?

Metaphor is spearheading Atlus towards differentiating its style, letting it diverge from the games it has become so well-known now. But before Megami Tensei, and Persona especially, were Atlus' biggest series,it made countless other games. So, so many.

BecauseAtlus doubles as a publisher, it’s hard to get an exact count on just how many games they’ve made in total, especially since they also don’t make every Megami Tensei game either. Though if you were to roughly deduce it, it would besomewhere around 70, give or take a few.

Metaphor is obviously the highlight of Atlus' non-Megami Tensei games at the moment, though games likeCatherine, Etrian Odyssey, and the hospital-dramaTrauma Centergames. Plus copious one-off games, many of which were never released internationally.

Humourously,one of Atlus' earliest games was Friday The 13thfor the NES, classed as one of the most difficult horror games ever made.

How Many Games Has Atlus Made In Total?

Atlus has made a lot of games. Even thoughplenty of those games fall outside of the Megami Tensei umbrella, the vast majority still owe themselves to that series. They’re so well known for the Megami Tensei games because they have truly made a staggering number of them.

Taking into account every single game they’ve made, including the entirety of the Megami Tensei series,that number of around 70 balloons up to 180. Again. give or take a few here as Atlus' publishing efforts mix with their own Megami Tensei games quite a bit. Regardless though, it’s a staggeringly high number of games. Considering they started back in 1987, that’saround 5 games a year, every year.

Consideringthe amount added with the various re-releasesthey create, they have been included in this numbering.

How Many Multi-Entry Series Does Atlus Have?

As you’ve seen by now, Atlus has made quite a few games, though plenty of them, especially its earlier games, wereone-off games or licensed titles. Created, released, and never seen from again. Megami Tensei and its spin-off meantthey always had something profitable to return to.

That said,some of those other series have stuck, leading to multiple sequels and remakes that built upon their predecessors. Let’s take a look at the most prominent.

It’s funny seeing just how muchShin Megami Tensei dwarfs every other series. Even funnier is that Persona is itself a spin-off of the greater series, and still hasplenty more entries than any other seriesAtlus has made.

For the most part, that is it. Certain games, such asRadiant Historia, got later remakes, but no brand-new entries that could class them as an independent series. That’s not a bad thing either, mind you. Seeing Atlus experiment with brand-new games rather than just relying on the past is a sign it’swilling to do more than what it’s used to.
