[Makoto Yuki]

That's too soon, no way.

I find it hard to believe as well. As much as I want too though.

 

[Dangansona]

Official website.
And they can actually drop the PS3 version, now that the PS4 is finally starting to sell and to have an audience in japan...

That said, will be great if it comes to PC and would make sense too.

Spoiler

NX soon?

Yeah but that's kind of shocking they would cut the PS3 version based on the face to they have experience developing for the system so it shouldn't have been that much of a problem for them and the install base for that system is still huge.

They would have had to be way behind on the PS3 version.

 

[Thoraxes]

Wow.

Just straight up wow.

So goooooood.

Also why do I even own a PS4 anymore lol

 

[Taruranto]

A big fuck you to Atlus if they decide to drop the PS3 version.

[Garrett Hawke]

Hmm. I guess I could see them dropping PS3. Hype.

 

[Hektor]

That come out of nowhere

b-b-b-but Hardin said

Hehe

 

[hamchan]

Well someone messed up.

Will buy on PC.

 

[-Horizon-]

PC?

ehhh what

 

[Steel]

I'd get it on PC, but I doubt there's gonna be a PC version when they haven't announced one and Atlus hasn't released their games on PC in the past.

 

[The12thGripper]

whois.net says ATLUS registered the domain

take that as you will

 

[V_Ben]

PC would be great news, cool stuff.

 

[KingBroly]

considering you have 2 things saying PS4 & PC and then the one thing only saying PS4...I'm going to have to call fake.

 

[Qurupeke]

http://p-ch.jp/news/detail/?nid=402

Fucking lol It's there!

 

[Bartholomuse]

Very skeptical atm, but if they were doing a PC version, I'd like to think it's SEGA's influence. Atlus are a total no show when it comes to pc ports compared to SEGAs prolific catalogue.

Honestly though, if I thought any persona game was going to come to PC I'd have assumed 4 would be up first.

edit: However...I remember something about an alleged PC port of Catherine years ago...

 

[Dangansona]

Maybe the PS3 version comes out later?

 

[kamineko]

Wut

Really

YOU GUYS

 

[the_sun_king]

That's too soon, no way.

It's not precedent. Persona 3 and Persona 4 (especially P4) were originally unveiled in Japan with only 3-4 months until their release from what I remember.

 

[grandjedi6]

July 8th and a PC port. Nice!

Wonder if the PC port implies a quick localization...

 

[Sun Bather]

I don't believe it.

But I want to believe it.

 

[Deeke[VRZ]]

Looks like its the actual release date...

Google translate:

 

[Philippo]

I don't know which one is more mindblowing, either such a close release date (EARLY JULY?) or the out of fucking nowhere Pc version.

Still, expecting the pc version to be a later port not on D1.

 

[Buggy Loop]

Oh, so Atlus is interested in money now? About time. Bring SMT nocturne on PC too for extra easy cash.

 

[Silver Arrows]

I'd get it on PC, but I doubt there's gonna be a PC version when they haven't announced one and Atlus hasn't released their games on PC in the past.

Besides, for the most part, they've shown in recent years to be a satellite studio affiliated with Sony.

 

[Tribes of Trusty]

I'm happy that if this is true it will release way sooner than I expected to in Japan.


But I'll be even happier the day I know the English release one (EU or US whatever)

 

[oti]

Wow.

Just straight up wow.

So goooooood.

Also why do I even own a PS4 anymore lol

Ni no Kuni 2 bruh

 

[bobbychalkers]

well damn if true....before I picked up my PS4 I fully intended to jump on the PS3 version. Depending on what Atlus throws in the limited edition, I might just go for PC.

 

[wrowa]

Well, that looks legit. I always hoped that Atlus would jump on the PC bandwagon eventually, but I didn't imagine it would happen yet. Really nice.

 

[Ydelnae]

whois.net says ATLUS registered the domain

take that as you will

It's the official Persona site lol

 

[Flopfan]

I AM SLAVE


EMANCIPATE ME

Hell yes.

I'm ready for my emancipation .

 

[Jake2by4]

Hoping for the best, preparing for something.

 

[-Horizon-]

also ps3 version abandoned?

 

[DNAbro]

That's like almost 2 months earlier than I anticipated

 

[Steel]

Besides, for the most part, they've shown in recent years to be a satellite studio affiliated with Sony.

No, I don't agree with this. Especially considering they've released more games on nintendo consoles/handhelds in recent years than PS consoles.

 

[Qvoth]

august? shieeeeeeet
hard to believe they'll do simultaneous release, but it says ps4 and pc sold at the same time, and i doubt they're selling pc version in japan?

 

[Red Blaster]

would be funny as shit if atlus canned the ps3 version after the blogpost from yesterday explicitly says playstation 3

 

[RyoonZ]

PC fuck yeah baybeh
Buying it so hard day one Japanese steam so fucking real

 

[Dangansona]

The good news is that means we probably get a 2016 release as well.

 

[jkh33]

Please be true.

I want to believe since it would be instant import as a birthday gift.

 

[Gentleman Jack]

whois.net says ATLUS registered the domain

take that as you will

Yes people, it's an official page.
It is also the official channel because

• They link all their livestreams from it
• It is directly linked from the official atlus homepage
• every prior persona announcement is disseminated via that website

 

[LProtag]

Wow.

Hope the international release is sooner than later.

 

[Slowdive]

Great news if true.

 

[DarkConfidant]

I want this to be real, but my decade and a half of Internet skepticism won't allow me to.

I want to believe

 

[Grief.exe]

Persona 5 at 4K

 

[Velcro Fly]

No PS3 version and presumably out on PS4 before Neo

Good fucking grief just cannot catch a break

 

[Eolz]

Maybe the PS3 version comes out later?

Every publisher should just let go the ps3 by now.

 

[Makoto Yuki]

Maybe the PS3 version comes out later?

That worked out for MKX... oh... wait...

Sucks if the PS3 version isn't being released though. I bet the PC version is a Sega push given their PC output.

 

[FelipeMGM]

Wow, that is a big fuck up man. Cant wait to play, and kudos for a simultaneous PC release, will play on PS4 but this is great for the franchise

Ni no Kuni 2 bruh

That prob will come to PC at some point too

 

[alpha69]

So Japanese expert GAF? What exactly does that line translate? I wonder why the one below only list PS4.

 

[Taruranto]

I'd get it on PC, but I doubt there's gonna be a PC version when they haven't announced one and Atlus hasn't released their games on PC in the past.

Well, technically speaking P1 was on PC too lol.

But if it gets released, it's probably because of Sega.
