We’re Less Than One Month From Persona 5 Launch

We’re Less Than One Month From Persona 5 Launch

In just a few weeks, Persona 5 will be available in the Americas and Europe! The wait has been long, but will be well worth it. To count down the days till the final launch Atlus just released a new trailer.

Persona 5 is a game about the internal and external conflicts of a group of troubled youth who live dual lives. They have the typically ordinary day-to-day of a Tokyo high-schooler – attending class, after school activities and part-time jobs. But they also undertake fantastical adventures by using otherworldly powers to enter the hearts of people. Their power comes from the Persona, the Jungian concept of the “self;” the game’s heroes realize that society forces people to wear masks to protect their inner vulnerabilities, and by literally ripping off their protective mask and confronting their inner selves do the heroes awaken their inner power, and use it to strive to help those in need. Ultimately, the group of Phantom Thieves seeks to change their day-to-day world to match their perception and see through the masks modern-day society wears.

Persona 5 will release on April 4th in the Americas and Europe, for PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 3.

Check out the Trailer:

“It’s an interesting choice given that the game has already seen a special episode anime adaptation with more likely on the way, but I suppose it lends a level of stylistic continuity between source and adaptation that most probably find desirable. If you’re new to Persona, its essentially a Shin Megami Tensei spinoff where you play as a teen who goes to school, makes friends, builds relationships, and battles inner psyche-derived monsters called Personas against each other. That’s the very quick and dirty; you’ll just have to play yourself to find out more.”
