Title: Shin Megami Tensei: Persona series
Post by: Nerroth on November 24, 2013, 01:10:10 PM
Originally a spinoff derived from the Shin Megami Tensei franchise, Persona has emerged as a fully-fledged Atlus IP in its own right.

Indeed, no less than four new titles were announced by Atlus Japan a few hours ago:

「ペルソナQ シャドウ オブ ザ ラビリンス」トレーラー映像 / PQ (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=etfqRXPXbQQ#ws)

Persona Q: Shadow of the Labyrinth (http://gematsu.com/2013/11/persona-q-shadow-of-the-labyrinth-announced-for-3ds), a 3DS chibi crossover with the casts of Persona 3 and Persona 4 teaming up for some first-person dungeon crawling.

「ペルソナ4 ジ・アルティマックス ウルトラスープレックスホールド」トレーラー映像#2 / P4U2 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zqmnp2wZRU4#ws)

Persona 4: The Ultimax Ultra Suplex Hold (http://gematsu.com/2013/11/persona-4-arena-2-hits-ps3-next-summer-in-japan) (or, as it will more likely be known as in the West, Persona 4 Arena 2), the second fighting game spinoff to be co-developed with BlazBlue creators Arc System Works; this one was already announced for arcades, but is now confirmed to be heading for PS3.

「ペルソナ4 ダンシングオールナイト」トレーラー映像 / P4D (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M5BIRWiifo8#ws)

Persona 4: Dancing All Night (http://gematsu.com/2013/11/persona-4-dancing-all-night-announced-for-ps-vita) (seriously!), yet another P4 spinoff (this one for the Vita), being co-created with the developers of the Hatsune Miku: Project Diva series.

「ペルソナ5」トレーラー映像 / PERSONA5 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2mZssK05WYo#ws)

And, last but by no means least, Persona 5 (http://gematsu.com/2013/11/persona-5-announced-for-playstation-3) will be heading to the PS3 late next year (or possibly in 2015 in the West?)


A shame that Atlus USA had to close their own forums just two days prior to this raft of news. Unless that was part of their nefarious plan all along...

I'll say this about the situation.

FINALLY!! Persona 5 is coming out!

Welp.
It seems my money early 2014 will mostly go to Neptunia and late 2014 will go to Persona.

I still want my Pre-3 characters and Nyarly as Nyarly for Arena 2, though. :T
But hey, Adachi's back! (Or maybe an illusion? Shadow? Who knows!)

I'm looking forward to the Persona games... that's for sure!

Now... if only I have the right consoles to play them on. :(

Hmm, the second video doesn't seem to have embedded properly.

There seems to be an embed limit per page. Is that a setting of this forum in particular, or more down to the format used to create it?

Hmm, I'm not sure. I'll have to look into that.

Wait there's going to be a persona on the 3ds?

With first person dungeon crawling, like muh EO?

And chibified cast, like muh FEA?

Well there goes that money. Will be obtaining like the fist of the north star.

OK, I fixed the embedding thing. It was a setting I'd not changed from the default.
