Thanks. Was going to post a nm on my comment since I found the stream of the stream link. Thank you anyways.
There is never hope...

What did you expect from a fighting game though.
No kidding. I was hoping, "New world! New characters!"
Like, I thought it was a pattern. Persona 2 and Persona 3, different. Persona 3 and Persona 4, different again. Except they've been stuck on their past creations so long, maybe they don't want to go anywhere else.

Persona 4 is a financially successful series. From a money standpoint, why keep branching out when now you've got your fingers in spin off games, animated series, etc...? Entrenched fanbase and expectations.
I'm not saying a real sequel will never happen, but it feels like we've been just been orbiting the same thing for a pretty long time.
I don't understand where you're getting this at all.

It isn't 4-2, as the Atlus PR account already confirmed.
The stream is also meant to hype up Persona 4 Arena 2 (I refuse to use the full title) and Persona 3 The Movie and so people are making wild jumps that that it's only about Persona 4.

Watch it defy all expectations and turn out to be Persona 2-3.
If someone has a link where they're saying they're going to make an offshoot of 4 that isn't a Persona 5, please post it so I can check it out.
So they've said nothing whatsoever?
No.
Okay thanks, that's what I thought. All this sudden talk of it only being P4 related was confusing me.
It's Persona 2 + 3.
Ooh, alright. That helps.
If I were an artist, I'd draw Rise, Chie, and Yukiko dressed as Yuna, Rikku and Paine.

Do we get an idol concert intro with it?

I would actually dig this
Persona 2: Innocent Punishment
Link? (I guess it's Japanese, though)
15%.
I don't mind a Persona 4-2. It doesn't mean Persona 5 is not coming. I just hope they do distinguish it as 4-2, so that they don't just try to make Persona 5 a direct story sequel to Persona 4.
After just finishing replay of Persona 4 Golden, I am glad to revisit the world and characters. I hope they can find more compelling ways to visit these characters personalities, though, since it's going to be pretty boring revisiting the same tired old character 'issues.'

Here.
I mean the whole Persona 4-2 thing is hecka dumb anyway because Persona 4-2 already exists and came out last year (unless you're a peein', in which case I think it didn't get released until earlier this year?) under the title Persona 4 Arena.

yup.
That would be so fucking awesome.
So that was the question from hitchhikers.....
The idea of Persona 4-2 is kind of silly too, seeing as they didn't even write them much to go off of for even Arena. Game is more P3 focused than P4 focused, and the sequel even more so.
The P4 cast are kind of done with. They didn't give themselves much any way to write a sequel without either crossing over with other installments (like Arena) or going into fanfiction territory.
This is Persona related announcement, but having Catherine 2, with online multiplayer to boot, is fine. I'm really fine with that.
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but Persona 1.5 Re:Mix for Neo Geo is all but confirmed.
If there would be a P4-2 (which I have strong doubts of), I imagine the most logical place it could take place after would be P4G's epilogue.
It's funny, because a P4-2 would feel SO much more forced story wise than P4A ever did.
Oh, so I'm guessing that was the event 16 I missed before. Guess there are reruns now.

For those to lost it, there was another horoscope event! Yu and Ai went to that fortune teller on the culture festival and this appeared.

Why is everyone saying P4-2 and not P5?
I dont know why people are assuming that they can't both be announced... I can totally see a Persona 4-2 on the Vita and Persona 5 on the PS3.
Remember the last time ATLUS announced games on Famitsu? They announced Persona 4 Ultimate Arena and Persona 4: The Golden together.

I'd like that but it's about as likely to happen here as a game where Koromaru and the shrine fox create an occult detective agency.
(I'd buy that too)
Because a voice actresses put up a faulty resume and now everyone believes there will be one.

I think that would be the best case situation. That would actually be incredible. Golden 2 and P5 hnng
The only "evidence" of a P4-2 is a faulty resume, and I don't know why so many people are latching on to something so dubious.
And a P4-2 doesn't even make sense. The story is pretty well wrapped up.
Hell, I don't even know how they tied P4G's true ending with P4A - assuming P4A is canon, that is.

It's set one month after Yu leaves Inaba. Read a summary or something.
