Depicting occult practices, fey heroes, and demons crawling out of the woodwork, Persona is Atlus' largest, most successful, and most acclaimed franchise. Beginning as a spinoff of the Shin Megami Tensei franchise, the series developed a sizable following in the West after Persona 3, and expanded into non-JRPG genres after Persona 4.
Awesome! And at the end there it seemed like he would wear the Persona as an armored suit. Not too far off from my fantasy of a Persona 4-2 where they ride their personas like mechs..
I hope the look of those menus and style of those scenes are fully represantative of the game because DAAAAMN!

This game looks like it's going to ooze style. Glad to see the engine from Catherine being put to good use!
Although I do agree with everyone saying that it looks like this game is gonna have some styyyyyyle, I'm not sure I'm digging the Catherine like style :/
Damn right he does. YOU SHOULD HAVE STAYED IN THE GARBAGE WHERE I FIRST SAW YOU, YOSUKE
I'm not sure how you can like Persona 4 if you hate Yosuke. So much of the story is delivered through him.
It's easy. Persona 4 is one of my favorite games and I despise Yosuke. He's generic and an annoyingly relentless homophobe. The only worse character is Junpei.
I don't know,Junpei has got nothing on Yosuke in terms of all round shittiness for me. I mean, fuck that guy, but I don't feel the same level of hate that Yosuke manages to achieve. But enough about that shit, let's talk about that trailer!
The stylized look of the trailer caused my mind to draw comparisons to Killer 7 or No More Heroes, and holy shit am I into that. The stealth sequences intrigue me, the menu design looks fucking wonderful, and the three characters shown (plus I guess the cat) look alright. Also: Masked vigilantes are cool. This looks cool. I need to see more combat. Turning into your Persona could be a pretty cool thing!
A bit miffed there wasn't a release date at the end. Did they release that separately somewhere else?
Tried to stay up for the last event, passed out. Trailer looks fucking rad. I like all the character designs, gameplay looks nuts, and I'm all about that styyyle.
Let the year of stealth games which are the fifth mainline game in their series commence!
When the Payday 2 devs declared this to be the Year of the Heists, I figured they were just talking about Battlefield Hardline and Rainbow 6 Siege. I had no idea Persona was getting in on the game!
