Coming To America: Persona 4 Arena

Published on February 22, 2012, by Nic - Posted in Main, News, PS3, Xbox 360 8

Rumors and clues have been swirling around for a little while now about Persona 4: Arena coming state side, but now Atlus has come out with a confirmation that it will be coming to North America.

Persona 4: Arena, developed by Arc System Works, centers around the ‘special investigation team’ after the events of Persona 4. Teddy invites the team to the ‘Midnight Arena’ to battle it out on live late night TV in the ‘P-1 Grand Prix’. The team obviously accepts because there wouldn’t be a game otherwise.

The game will debut in arcades with a summer console release in Japan and North America. The console version will have exclusive story and online modes that the arcade will not.

Atlus has set up a page with links to places where you can pre-order now.

Akihiko and Mitsuru are in as well. The roster's still incomplete so there might be more.

This will definitely be in the buy category for me, I still wish Rise would be playable but I know that won't happened but I can dream can't I?

It makes mroe sense then Phoenix Wright (though I love Wright in that game) because they all fight in their games.

So stoked for this though. Its made by the blazblue/guilty gear guys so you know the battle system will be solid.

I wasn't expecting to see a P4 fighter, looks interesting.

I'm still waiting to hear if they're going to include any Persona 2 characters, or maybe even someone from another Shin Megami game. Maybe the Demi-Fiend from Nocturne or Raidou Kuzanoha.
