Dat P5 logo is slick.

Persona 5 PS4... PERSONA 5 PS4!

I might hyperventilate.

 

[Rhapsody]

The protagonist feels super Trinity Souls-esque to me.

So it wasn't just me that thought this... at least the designs in that were good (regarding people). I can't remember what the personas looked like in TS lol

 

[Sophia]

Just think too: This was Sony's Pre TGS conference. We're almost certainly going to get info around TGS proper.

 

[Ljrivarola]

I'm speechless.

 

[Squire]

SO HEY EVERYONE

Your theory on the blue flames? Related to the other world, obviously, but how?

Entrance to the Velvet Room, perhaps? In most fiction, blue flames are harmless, aren't they?

I like the nerdy look. Nice change-up.

 

[atlusprime]

 

[Nachos]

Hmm...

 

[MiguelMexMIstery]

#PS3SuperiorConsole ;_;/

Also it's kinda weird that they showed more of P5 before P4D.

Come here celebrate with us, Senpai!

 

[Dantis]

I literally only just realised that P5 has been delayed.

 

[Zebetite]

SO HEY EVERYONE

Your theory on the blue flames and the stopped time? Related to the other world, obviously, but how?

Time was frozen while it was going on. It's possible the "other world" in P5 is basically just Za Warudo (i.e: it's the real world, but time is stopped!) and those flames were just from a shadow. Blue Agi! It's a whole new world!

Alternatively, it could have been someone summoning a Persona. Recall all the blue flames surrounding P4's protagonist when he awoke. Maybe it's a hint that the antagonists are much more active Persona-users this time.

Who knows! It's so exciting!

 

[Dante Morgan]

Can we post images of P5MC in here?

I'll link it just to be safe. When he's looking at the blue flames, you can see a silhouette reflected in his glasses. Do you think it's his Persona? Just a random demon? Either way, it looks

Spoiler

humanoid and seems to have wings.

 

[Moonlight]

I love the MC's design. I really like how it feels like a deliberate reaction to P4's MC without necessarily going full forward in the opposite direction. And I mean, those glasses are amazing.

 

[Sophia]

Somehow I get the impression you knew about this beforehand.

There are people with avatars of him already in this thread, haha.

Yep. You worded it perfectly!

 

[Levito]

HARDIN


YOU

LIED

 

[RockderBanja]

I literally only just realised that P5 has been delayed.

Yep one of the first things I noticed. Winter 2014 is now just 2015. Might have been delayed to put it on the PS4. Pretty sly of them releasing a trailer to try to soften or hide the blow though.

 

[Vox Chaotica]

So I've lost the bet.

 

[Korigama]

Couldn't care less about a PS4 port of P5 beyond it meaning that people can finally stop port-begging for one. MC looks decent.

 

[Rhapsody]

.

Atlus USA is just less than an hour from where I live. So many secrets you guys are holding from me, just a drive away. >:[

 

[Psycho_Mantis]

Love the new MC design.......PS4 fuck YESSSSSSSSSS

Atlus I love you

 

[Moonlight]

So I've lost the bet.

better take off that crown, friend

it's sho time.

 

[thequickandthedead]

which studio is behind Persona's anime cutscenes?

 

[Love Deterrence]

Love the new MC design.......PS4 fuck YESSSSSSSSSS

Atlus I love you

.

 

[Soulflarz]

so happy

 

[AquaWateria]

WTF Persona 5 on fuckin PS4. Instant buy like seriously. Today is so fuckin brilliant.

 

[LX_Theo]

I literally only just realised that P5 has been delayed.

I wouldn't say that. If anything, its confirmed that the 2014 part of winter 2014 is now out of the question.

 

[MiguelMexMIstery]

So how are we nicknaming the MC?

So I've lost the bet.

That's the avatar you're gonna use for the bet? Do you hate Yosuke or something? lol I would gadly wear that too.

Also I'm not sucking any Maras yay

 

[FluxWaveZ]

Only 15% of us were right. Guess it's hard not to be pessimistic when we've been waiting for so long.

 

[JNA]

Is it just me or is the main protagonist in this trailer already the best looking design?

No offense Yu you will always have the swag but this guy will really make all the fan girls swoon.

Curly black hair

Glasses

 

[Tamanon]

Looks like it's delayed to later in 2015, not just the first few months. At least according to the Google translate of Hashino's note on the news site.

Still, since I'm getting the US version, that won't be so bad!

 

[buddha0991]

A lot of us are gonna have avatars of this bastard now aren't we?

 

[Soulflarz]

A lot of us are gonna have avatars of this bastard now aren't we?

You all lose

 

[Rhapsody]

Optimism only leads to pain like waiting for FFXV news for many years. Pessimism has eased the wait for P5 for me for sure.

He's literally the perfect looking protagonist. Just so neutral but you just wanna be him.

 

[Jonnax]

The delay is also probably to give P4DAN more space since there's been no news which might point to a delay.

 

[jello44]

A lot of us are gonna have avatars of this bastard now aren't we?

Not me,

He's not waifu material.

 

[Mobile Suit Gooch]

P5MC looks like Yu and Naoto's love child.

 

[Tamanon]

Oh hey, we have a school crest. Anyone able to spot what car company it's mimicking?

 

[PK Gaming]

I love the MC's design. I really like how it feels like a deliberate reaction to P4's MC without necessarily going full forward in the opposite direction. And I mean, those glasses are amazing.

I can’t wait to play as the most beautiful boy in the whole world.

 

[TurnipFritters]

My, my.

 

[Squire]

He's literally the perfect looking protagonist. Just so neutral but you just wanna be him.

Someone in my twitter feed already thinks he's adorable. It's like Soejima discovered a new flavor of Perfect Human.

 

[Moonlight]

So, interesting thing I realized? Yellow was chosen as Persona 4's key colour, for a lot of reasons, but one of those reasons was because yellow was associated with warnings and caution, like police tape.

You know what red has a lot to do with? Stopping.

nothing mindblowing, I know, but hey.

 

[sackboy2197]

Looked to be set in Shibuya.

So Persona 5 is The World Ends With You 2?

Anyway, it looks great. I hope we'll get a longer trailer at TGS

 

[Sophia]

The fangirls are already hard at work. >_>;

 

[MiguelMexMIstery]

He's literally the perfect looking protagonist. Just so neutral but you just wanna be him.

Yeah I agree. He's not that emo and antisocial looking like P3MC, and not that swagastic and good-looking like P4MC, he's just in the good balance. Plus he looks kinda nerdy and timid so I'm pretty good being him.

 

[JNA]

He's literally the perfect looking protagonist. Just so neutral but you just wanna be him.

Indeed, and I'm saying this as a straight guy lol.

Speaking of which, can anybody make me an avatar of that guy so I can change my avatar too? XD

 

[LX_Theo]

P5MC looks like Yu and Naoto's love child.

Who knows? Maybe there is a canon leading up to P5 after all.

 

[Aeana]

I'm soooo happy it was announced. The release frame changed to just '2015' though. I guess the PS4 port will slightly delay the game's release. Hopefully not by much.

The game has been in development for PS4. It won't be the cause of a delay. Although the game was delayed from original plans, for other reasons.

 

[TurnipFritters]

The MC looks pretty boring, but that's par for the course with the boy heroes in this series I suppose.
