For fans of Japanese RPGs and other quirky games like the Trauma Center series, Tokyo-based game developer and publisher Atlus is a well-known name. But none of the company's works have seen a release on Microsoft's Xbox 360 platform in the states.

That will change next year, as the North American publishing arm Atlus U.S.A. has become an official third-party publisher for Xbox 360, the company announced today. The first two titles coming to the platform will arrive in 2008: Operation Darkness from an unannounced developer and Spectral Force 3: Innocent Rage from Idea Factory.

Operation Darkness is a strategy RPG set in an alternate World War II-era reality, where magic-using soldiers must be utilized to overthrow Hitler's own sorcerous squadrons. Spectral Force 3 is the first in the series of tactical RPGs to come stateside and pits players as a mercenary able to recruit up to 40 characters in the mystical world of Neverland.
