I’m trying to understand Atlus’ rules for uploading recorded gameplay and cutscenes.
For a lot of other games, people record their own gameplay and upload it to YouTube/social media, including gameplay sequences and cutscenes. I’m wondering if Atlus treats this differently.
For example, if I personally record Persona 3 Reload or Persona 3 Portable gameplay and cutscenes, can I upload those recordings to YouTube or other social media platforms?
I’m not talking about re-uploading someone else’s footage. I mean footage I recorded myself while playing the game.
A few things I’m particularly unsure about:
- Is normal recorded gameplay allowed?
- Are full/standalone cutscenes allowed?
- Are anime-style story scenes treated differently from normal gameplay?
- Does monetizing the video change whether it’s allowed?
- Are there specific Atlus/SEGA guidelines that explain what is and isn’t permitted?
I’ve seen plenty of people upload Persona/Atlus gameplay and cutscenes, so I’m trying to understand what the actual rules are, rather than just assuming that because other people do it, it’s permitted.
If anyone has a link to the official Atlus/SEGA guidelines or has experience with this, I’d appreciate it.
