Only good games from those four are P4G and PQ.

Arena and Ultimax are fantastic if you're in to fighting games.

 

[Ponn]

Release date with a Special Velvet Room Collector's Edition with a 32 page softcover artbook, 6 song CD sampler, stickers and a very special ticket that can be used to enter the Velvet Room and acquire your very own Persona! All for $1999.99 USD!!!

 

[rtcn63]

Cinco de Mayo-themed season pass. Do it.

 

[Jotamide]

Can't wait for the delay announcement.

[StrikeFirst117]

Oh lord is it happening? We might finally get a release date or another delay.

 

[Dangansona]

You guys asking for an international release date aren't dreaming big. We need a 2016 release!

Related question though, why the hell does it take longer to release the European version (games in general)? Do they have multiple languages on those disks?

Yep, there are many more languages that have to be localized for.

I share your pain. Stuck in the U.K. but the American version of persona is basically the version I need to play. The multiple language seems to be the only valid reason for such a delay. Also, Altus doesn't have its own publisher in the eu region.

 

[105.Will]

2017 here we come

 

[Schryver]

Can't wait for the delay announcement.

[jj984jj]

Oh nice, I hope it's a good birthday present.

Spoiler

2017 would not be nice

 

[ANDS]

Oh my god, if they announce a delay I am going to die laughing. I am also going to be in absolute rage, but watching the internet meltdown will be worth it too.

 

[-Horizon-]

I hope for 2016 simultaneous release. I expect 2017 date.

 

[DR2K]

Just cancel it already

Atlus games rarely get translated into other European languages.

Although Odin Sphere actually will be, so maybe that's changing. Not much of a delay on that localisation either.

 

[Ooccoo]

Persona 5 is now a NEO exclusive!

 

[UmbraeCruxis]

Oh my god, if they announce a delay I am going to die laughing. I am also going to be in absolute rage, but watching the internet meltdown will be worth it too.

It seems a lot of people are braced for it after the last announcement. I doubt there will be as much rage as there was before. Personally, if there is a delay, I feel like it'll be a small one, and we'll get the actual release date this time.

 

[Tevos]

It's gonna be a delay.

 

[kurahador]

Still need to finish Persona 4 Golden.

And Arena.

And Arena Ultimax

And Persona Q.

2017 would actually work well for me.

And Dancing All Night.

I don't think any of the previous persona games were localised into another language besides English. Europe gets the literal same product as America just months/year later. So there being many more languages in the EU has not been an valid excuse for Atlus's bs in the past. I doubt P5 will be any different.

 

[Iva Demilcol]

And Dancing All Night.

Nobody has a Vita.

 

[Logash]

If we actually get a release date for this year... This will be the year I have been waiting for ever since the PS3 era. The Last Guardian, Final Fantasy 15, and Persona 5 in the same year. Beautiful

 

[Zhao_Yun]

Odin Sphere only will have EFIGS localization since Square Enix already localized the game into EFIGS when they were publishing the ps2 version back then.

I see. Well Atlus just doesn't like the eu that much. They have improved on their persona releases if you ignore the original persona arena release. It's why I have hope that we won't be too far behind North America. A few months is what I'm expecting.

 

[Kai Ozu]

2017

 

[CrimsonFist]

Odin Sphere only will have EFIGS localization since Square Enix already localized the game into EFIGS when they were publishing the ps2 version back then.

It's a complete remake, I doubt it will be using the same script/localisation as the original.

 

[Mik317]

man you guys are whiny.

You'll get it eventually.

I don't get the "oh noes, my hype is gone because I have to wait" posts....were you excited for the game or just to see new footage?

 

[ar4757]

Nobody has a Vita.

Well he said he's playing P4G, so...

 

[Kazuhira]

Mmm,i doubt it's a delay..worldwide release? Yeah,i'm crazy.
Do you think the ps4 version will run at 1080p/60fps?

 

[Aressa]

Then why it takes them that long to bring the same exact product?

 

[Darkangel]

They're going to need another year to work on the PS4 neo version.

 

[MetalGearOnlineK]

"Persona 5 will be available for download at the end of this presentation."

plz

 

[Asd202]

"Persona 5 will be available for download at the end of this presentation."

plz

Maybe a demo.

 

[Sn4ke_911]

Countdown for a delay? I hope you people aren't serious...

 

[Plasma]

Mmm,i doubt it's a delay..worldwide release? Yeah,i'm crazy.

I'd hope so it's a PS3 game.

 

[Asd202]

Eh I don't think this game having a 60FPS for this game is all that important it's a turn based JRPG.

 

[FluxWaveZ]

Maybe a demo.

Hell no.

 

[Gecoma]

Then why it takes them that long to bring the same exact product?

WHO KNOWS!

Supposedly because they don't have a European office they can't release games there on time. You would like to think being bought by a company like Sega would change that.

 

[Linkstrikesback]

August release for Japan and North America. September 2018for Europe.

More like it.

 

[Sumio Mondo]

"We're splitting the game into multiple chapters"

 

[Barajas_201]

Best 5 de Mayo ever. Can not wait any further.

 

[Nyoro SF]

"We're splitting the game into multiple chapters"

OK, this gave me a start. I keep forgetting the potential of catastrophe is limitless.

 

[Big_Al]

September for JP
2017 for NA
TBA for Europe

are my guesses

 

[StereoVsn]

They're going to need another year to work on the PS4 neo version.

Oh shit, Sony is mandating Neo mode come October. Delay is almost guaranteed.

 

[SolidSnakex]

Oh shit, Sony is mandating Neo mode come October. Delay is almost guaranteed.

You don't have to do anything extra with the Neo version. The only requirement is that they make sure that the game will run on the Neo.

 

[yuuki]

Oh shit, Sony is mandating Neo mode come October. Delay is almost guaranteed.

why do people thing that devs have to use the neo.....

 

[Sou Da]

CTRL F "Lady GaGa" 0 results.

Shocked.

 

[Lynx_7]

The game will be renamed to Persona Versus 4 and they'll announce it as a PS4K VR exclusive, release date TBA sometime in 2017. Please be excited.

Spoiler

JUST GIVE ME THE DAMN DATE ATLUS

 

[Son Of Sparda]

why do people thing that devs have to use the neo.....

Because it'll be mandatory after October...?!

 

[SephLuis]
