​

Announced as a surprise drop for New Year's was Persona 5R, and with its reveal came absolutely no information about the upcoming title other than the fact that it existed. That'll change soon, however, as Atlus is planning on finally giving fans more details about what exactly Persona 5R is. Tomorrow, on March 23rd, the finale for Persona 5: The Animation will air, and after it concludes, we'll get to see a peek at some new information regarding the game, according to the official Japanese Twitter account for Persona 5. Stay tuned, as this thread will be updated once the broadcast has completed.

UPDATE:

The teaser reveal has gone live, with the title of the upcoming game officially revealed as Persona 5: The Royal. A female character is shown standing in the crowd. A narration asks, "What are your thoughts on the Phantom Thieves?", with the unknown character responding, "I think helping people is a wonderful thing, but if I had to say, I don't like them. I don't think the Phantom Thieves' methods will make the world a better place or help anyone. In the end, I feel like you can only solve that yourself."

That was all that Atlus revealed, though more information is promised for the upcoming Persona Super Live Concert, which will take place on April 24.

Here is 3. One of the best-selling PSP games actually.

Huh, missed it on the list i have at hand. Still, the same point applies. A home console first exclusive, and that belongs to sony.

Which again is a dick move, and literally no reason why it has to be PS4 exclusive. Screw exclusivity bullshit.

I could say the same about some platinum games, the wonderful 101 and bayoneta 2 and 3, but hey, nintendo payed, so their exclusives now.

Okay, then Octopath Traveler for PS4, Shin Megami Tensei for Xbox One, Mario Odyssey for PC

Only because Sony was too proud to buy up the IP, I'd rather some games be a timed exclusive but whatever.

 

[jumpman17]

I'm getting real tired of company's bullcrap announcements of an announcement, which then ends up being an announcement of a later date announcement.

 

[sarkwalvein]

On the one hand I am still not convinced Persona 5R will not be releasing on the Switch, probably this year.
On the other hand, I will keep playing P5 standard on my PS4, life is too short and this game never ends for me.

 

[leon315]

What is this? is this a re-release of P5 with addons? or a standalone game?

 

[chartube12]

So it’s a sequel?

Remember kids.
It's only ok when Nintendo does it.

Is that a fact? I wasn't aware that other companies pulling exclusivity bullshit was okay too.

 

[Vivisector]

I wonder if they'll sell it as DLC or if we'll have to buy the whole game all over again like FES, Portable, and Golden. I really do want to play as a female protagonist but shelling out another $60 or $80 for a collectors edition, well I'm not so sure I'm ready to do that.

Not for you, but the majority seems to be okay when nintendo brings third party exclusives.

Only because other companies don't give a flying shit about bringing them over, much less funding companies like Platinum Games or having the balls to buy the IP no other companies wanted. I don't
seem to remember Sony wanting to buy the rights to Bayonetta 2.

But that's exactly the thing. If it is alright for nintendo to have exclusives, why cant the other two have them too without nintendo fans crying over for not having them?

Yup. Just look how people react to these 2 identical situations.

>Nintendo gets an exclusive
Everyone rejoyces!

>Sony/Microsoft get an exclusive
Port to Nintendo when?

Then what the hell is the point in having Persona characters in Smash, other than being just a fanservice? I sure as shit didn't ask for Joker.

Oh don't give me that, people port beg for Nintendo games on the PS4 all the time, and it's fucking annoying.

Just give us SMT and you can have p5 redux

Remember, it's clearly wrong to even ask for that on Switch, according to a couple of people on here.
