Ready for some news about Persona 5? The Japanese website for the much anticipated RPG has recently been updated with a countdown, which will expire on May 5th 2016.
With little more than the phrase “Take Your Heart” to work with, it is currently unknown what the website is counting down to. Will it be a new major preview? Will it be a character unveil? Will it be a feature announcement? Could it even be the long awaited release date that fans have been waiting some time for? Time will tell…
Persona 5 is the next numbered instalment in the Megami Tensei spin-off series “Persona”. While it has received many spin-off games (Persona Q, Persona 4 Arena, Persona 4 Arena Ultimax, Persona 4: Dancing All Night) and remakes (Persona, Persona 2: Innocent Sin, Persona 3 Portable, Persona 4 Golden), a brand new instalment has not been offered since 2008 on the PlayStation 2.
Persona 5 is being handled in North America by ATLUS USA. A PAL region publisher has yet to be confirmed, but will presumably be Nippon Ichi Software America.
