Atlus bringing Persona 4 to North America on December 9

by Jason Dobson { Jul 6th 2008 at 9:45AM }

While Japanese audiences will be playing Persona 4 this July, North American gamers won't have to wait long to wander the halls of Gekkoukan High. Atlus USA has taken time away from blowing things up with small explosives this holiday weekend to announce plans to bring Persona 4 to North America on December 9.

Sweetening the deal even further, the publisher also notes that each copy of the game will come bundled with a soundtrack CD featuring "select music" from the title, which represents the sixth in the role-playing series, and the latest to cling tightly to Sony's aging last-gen console. If, however, you're having trouble waiting until this holiday season to get your Persona fix, check out the game's English announcement trailer after the break.

Persona 2 had two flavors, Eternal Punishment and Innocent Sin.

They should really bring these games to the Wii or, preferably, the PSP. Or maybe I should get a PS2. It's a bit Weeaboo, though.

Ugh, stop posting.

Lord Bowser @ Jul 6th 2008 11:19AM

Josh you love me, don't deny it.

Love this series so much... I'm kinda glad they stayed on the PS2 - as much as I'd love to see P4 with next-gen graphics, they wouldn't be able to concentrate as much on the gameplay, which is one of the things I like so much about this series.

I just beat Persona 3 a few days ago. This means I need to hurry on the Answer portion if I want to be done in time for P4.

"I got my wii pre-order about 2 months ago. But my local game shop is only getting in 20 wii's. Thanks for ruining christmas nintendo. I hope you all fucking burn"

Any word on a European release? We only just got the original Persona 3 and have yet to get FES so the outlook is grim.

juju187 @ Jul 6th 2008 11:00AM

it's banned it the EU for being awesome

Deatharea @ Jul 6th 2008 11:35AM

So I have until December to finally beat Persona 3 :P

Jakka @ Jul 6th 2008 12:21PM

A JRPG!? No, thank you very much.

The chicks were kinda hot, though.

DarthDavid @ Jul 6th 2008 12:46PM

It's a good thing that we'll be getting it during the holiday season.....I'm half way done with the Journey, I haven't even started on the Answer...The barely got 12/20 hrs on P3 when FES was announced so I started over....taking forever, but loving it!!!
