    Oh man this last hours was absolute terrible in terms of reactions to this whole event. But man still so far away....

    It looks rather dark and grim I just hope they won't cut Social links and stuff.

    Man, I'm such a slave. Sat there in mumble for like 6 hours leading up to this and the trolling was PHYSICALLY PAINFUL.

    But you know what? I'll probably end up buying Persona Q AND P4A2, maybe even that silly dancing game. So in the end, they announced 3-4 games I want, one of them being Persona-goddamn-5.

    Good for you Atlus / P-Studio. You got me : )

    It's honestly hard to get super excited about something that will probably be 2015 for the US, especially since they showed so little.

    Persona was always dark. P4 was the lightest in tone but it was also the most popular. I really hope they go back to the darker themes. Also there is suppose to be an interview event right after this. I will try to update but I think the people on gaf are so fast with this stuff it might be faster to read minute to minute update there.

    I hope they've got Atlus US and whoever does their EU work on board. Get them working on the translations right off the bat.

    Persona is big enough for a global release... right?

    Oh no. It's going to be 2016 for Europe, isn't it? :(

    I reaaaaally hope we don't have wait too long for a western release, hopefully early/mid 2015 at least. And I guess this is a perfect excuse for me to pick up a PS3 by then, if it turns out it's exclusive and not coming to 360. Not too miffed, since it'll probably be quite cheap by then, and I have plenty of PS3-exclusives to look forward to!

    ps4 release about 4-5months apart and that was before p4 became as big as it is now. I would say NA will get it about 4 months after we do. In the main time, I wait for next winter.

    Well OF COURSE its for ps3 a full year into the ps4 cycle! That team don't give a FUUUUUCK.

    No, I mean, seriously this is fucking HYPE and sadly I'm sure Winter '14 is for Japan only and and the States won't see it until August '15 =(

    Hopefully I'll beat p4 on the vita till then.

    You could say they didn't show anything, but it was all I needed. One of the coolest teasers I've ever seen.

    I'm assuming all those chairs mean more high school?

    If it was Q1, why wouldn't they have announced an exact release date? I'm thinking Q4.

    I'm glad to see that this is actually happening. The only other word had seen about the event was a Persona rhythm game which is probably not was people are looking for.

    A little late to the generational party though, aren't you, ATLUS?

    Looks like the new color scheme is red.

    I am not sure if this means the game's going to take on a more 'horror' vibe.

    They also announced a chibi RPG for the 3DS starring Persona 3 and Persona 4 characters.

    Persona 4 came out a year after PS3 launched as well, so it's not surprising.

    Who knows, maybe the Gaikai stuff will be up and running when the game finally comes to the west and you'll be able to play it on PS4.

    They have to make a 360 version as well right? The announcement was made for the Japanese so there would be no reason to mention the 360 version in the trailer. Someone tell me there will be a 360 version.
