Atlus Opens Teaser Site With Persona Logo, Announces P4A Update


A new teaser site opened with the familiar P-Studio logo for Atlus' Persona team, and it can't be for the Persona 4 Arena update.

Despite all the hype, Atlus has kept quiet about a new Persona game since Persona 4's release in 2008. Today the company opened a teaser site at p-ch.jp [http://p-ch.jp/], hinting at a reveal on Nov. 24 at 8 p.m. At the bottom of the site is the logo for Atlus' Persona team, which can be seen on their other Persona games, most recently Persona 4: Golden and Persona 4 Arena. The site's red background also shows three empty boxes at the top of the page. Would it be wrong to hope for a Persona 5 teaser?

Atlus also confirmed the latest update to Persona 4 Arena: Persona 4 The Ultimax Ultra Suplex Hold in Famitsu. The new teaser site likely is not for the update, as it already has its own website. [http://p-atlus.jp/p4u2/] Two characters from Persona 3 will be joining their other cast members in the update to P4A. Yukari Takeba continues to use her bow and arrow, and she's become an actress in the fictional show Phoenix Ranger Featherman R. Junpei Iori has become a baseball player, and he uses his powerful, wild swings from P3 to fight opponents with his bat.

The trailer [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Toe2yX7nqU] also shows a completely new character to the universe. Sho Minazuki wears the Yasogami High School uniform around his waist, making him a classmate of the P4 characters, but his impact in the game is unknown.

And after watching the update's trailer ... I have no idea who that red headed kid is.

If P5 winds up being a console exclusive, then we can say whatever it comes out for has won the next generations "war". In other news, who the hell is Sho?!

Some people have figured this out already... but judging by the six Japanese cities on the website, sadly I'm inclined to agree that this will be a concert announcement and not a game.

Now they could potentially announce a game DURING the concert, perhaps even at the opening concert in Tokyo. You're guaranteed your audience there, and it's a common practice with other companies like Namco/Bandai. But you HAVE to figure Persona 5 is coming out soon; we're on the cusp of a new game hardware generation, and the only games Atlus has on current consoles is Catherine, P4A, and a LOT of portables. They've milked Persona 4 I think a little too much at this point, so they have to put something out soon or people will start getting legitimately pissed.

Persona 5! Pachinko machine exclusive!

But yeah, it has to be Persona 5, right?! And one would assume, after P4A going multi-platform, that it would be too. Which, personally, I'm okay with. Just so long as SEGA makes sure it doesn't take as long to get to Europe!

Loving that P4A update name too. "The Ultimax Ultra Suplex Hold". Just fantastic. XD

Yes! Yes! Yes!
This is enough to make my week by itself. I've been excited for Persona 5 since I heard it was in development, and Atlus are a company that has never disappointed me. Well, except for their shitty European localization times. Actually, that's quite an issue. Here's to hoping the game isn't region locked.

Plot twist? More like neck twist of some unfortunate fellow who gets in my way if that happens!

Seems like everyone gets a new attack or two in this update, which I like. As for this Sho character, besides looking a bit evil and having cool sword weapons, I think it would be hilarious if this guy is

P4A Spoiler I guess...

The real student council president of Yasogami that Yosuke and Chie talked about in their stories.

But who knows? He might just be some random student or something. I wonder how they are going to change up the story mode now though.

It seems that Shuhei Yoshida tweeted a link to the website which is a good sign if you ask me.
