Nintendo told the Game Informer news website on Thursday that Atlus is localizing the game. In the statement, Nintendo told Game Informer that Atlus is localizing the title "in a way that is consistent with the localization work they do on games they publish" and added that "it was a priority to ensure the game feels familiar and appeals to longtime Atlus fans. Any changes made to the in-game content were due to varying requirements and regulations in the many different territories Nintendo distributes its products."
Atlus released the game in Japan last December.
