Man I hope they do the same like SEGA with Yakuza and release it also on PS4 besides the PS3-Version... :/

 

[Dr. Buni]

Well, I think we all know it's P5. The real question is for which platform(s).

Any platform but PS3 or 3DS would kill me inside. I only have these two consoles

Spoiler

and it doesn't make sense for P5 to be released for any other gaming device besides them.

 

[ATXAlchemy]

this will decide what smartphone I get.

 

[injurai]

Wasn't Persona 4 one of the last games to come out on the PS2? It would make sense for Persona 5 to come out on the PS3 even after next-gen is released.

I don't get why though it has to be that way. It must have been set aside to ferment in pre-production.

Indeed it was.

Nice catch but I'm not going to get my hopes up just yet.

 

[ULTROS!]

It's definitely Persona 5 for PS2.

 

[Napalm_Frank]

My Vita is ready.

 

[iRAWRasaurus]

in persona 5

 

[Logash]

I kept my PS3 specifically for this game. I'm pretty much ready for it being on any platform except the 360 or the Xbox One.

 

[Tiu Neo]

Considering it will take a few months for it to come out...

PS4 only would be suicide, fanbase would not be very big yet.
PS3 only would be pretty much suicide, without BC.

Vita is the only answer.

Spoiler

It'll be for PS3.

 

[EMT0]

And now there's no denying it. We're getting Persona 5. Excuse me, I need a moment.

 

[Gbraga]

It's definitely Persona 5 for PS2.

I'm ok with this

 

[killatopak]

Please release on a system I own! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE!!!!

 

[Dr. Buni]

It's definitely Persona 5 for PS2.

Knowing Atlus, I wouldn't be surprised.

 

[Coldnoodle]

WonderSwan.

 

[ULTROS!]

Please release on a system I own! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE!!!!

iOS or Android.

 

[intheinbetween]

I will buy a 3DS XL for this

 

[SamuelSupreme]

Please be on PS4/PS3...PLEASE NO MORE HANDHELDS

 

[Gbraga]

iOS or Android.

WHY DO YOU HAVE TO DO THIS???

AAAAAAAAAAAARGH

 

[Stone Ocean]

 

[SweetTeddie]

I want some Oculus Rift action in my Persona 5. Come on Atlus, it would print money!

 

[ys45]

Finally a new Persona game , it seems to be some kind of tradition to release them at the end of a generation now ?

I don't mind if it's on Vita or PS3 or even PS4 (which i doubt) i just want a new Persona game !

Spoiler

Please don't be on mobile

 

[Sammy Samusu]

I'm thinking PS3/4/V, having the game available on Vita won't stop people from buying P5G (also multi) years from now. Gotta maximize that profiT.

I'll play it on PS3.

 

[Blizzje]

Persona 4: The Funky Student
On Xbox One, Kinect-controlled dancing game.
(please, no)

 

[RPGCrazied]

The way things are going in gaming today, I wouldn't be surprised its an iOS game. Its the thing to do now, take beloved franchises and make them into these touch rpg's with microtransactions.

 

[koutoru]

iOS or Android.

Nope, Sega hates money. Windows phone exclusive.

 

[Silky]

so has Persona 3 x Jet Set Radio been announced yet

 

[Gbraga]

call GiantBomb

 

[Tiu Neo]

I'm betting this will be the best Persona game ever. It will get everything right, and will be considered a classic.

Then, we remember Sega owns Atlus now. It'll never be released outside of Japan.

 

[Dr. Buni]

There is like, 0% chance of Persona 5 being a PS4 title. I can see it being released for PS3/Vita, 3DS/Vita, PS3 only or even PS360. PS4 though? Nope.

I'm betting on PS3/Vita as well.

 

[RPGCrazied]

My dream announcement? P5 for PS3/Vita, and also releasing 3 & 4 HD for PS3/Vita

 

[V_Ben]

You're going to be either disappointed or overjoyed then.

 

[Dedication Through Light]

I just hope its middle school setting or so and has improved dungeon design...last bit of tartarus design felt weakish.

 

[Gbraga]

4 Golden you mean! I already have 4 in HD through emulators

 

[RPGCrazied]

I just hope its middle school setting

Why not college this time?

 

[Stone Ocean]

0% chance is a bit of a stretch.

But I agree that current gen is far more likely.

PS3/PS4 is a possibility considering that's how Sega is releasing Yakuza Ishin. I could certainly see it. A lot more likely than 3DS imo.

 

[Caronte]

If they release it on PS3 I can't see them not doing the same for the 360.

 

[Hyunashi]

The only 2 options I can see are PS3 or PSVita+3DS.
Personally I am hoping to see it on the PS3, cos I don't want my experience to be gimped on handhelds.

 

[Squire]

Why not college this time?

$$$

 

[Dorj]

Wii U exclusive pls

 

[Stone Ocean]

Why not college this time?

Because we need school uniforms.

 

[Dr. Buni]

You're going to be either disappointed or overjoyed then.

I would be disappointed if it was a PS4-only title, since I am not buying one anytime soon, but I think that is very unlikely to happen.

I just hope its middle school setting or so and has improved dungeon design...last bit of tartarus design felt weakish.

Tartarus as a whole was quite meh, but the dungeon design in P4 was great, so I have high hopes for Persona 5.

PS3/PS4 is a possibility considering that's how Sega is releasing Yakuza Ishin. I could certainly see it. A lot more likely than 3DS imo.

It being released for the 3DS was quite possible before Sega getting involved. Now I don't know what to believe anymore, but I certainly wouldn't be disappointed if it was a 3DS title.

 

[ULTROS!]

Nope, Sega hates money. Windows phone exclusive.

Blackberry Exclusive

 

[LaunchpadMcQ]

I own every console ever, bring it on Atlus. I'll buy it on the Genesis if I have to.

 

[sixteen-bit]

Blackberry Exclusive

only compatible with playbook

 

[keit4]

Wii U exclusive.

 

[SpaceDrake]

If they release it on PS3 I can't see them not doing the same for the 360.

I can't see them doing it. No actual domestic market, and all existing fans, as well as plenty of potential new sales, will have a PS3.

On the other hand, Catherine was released for the 360 here. So who knows.

Why not college this time?

The Japanese "college" experience, or at least the image of it in the zeitgeist, is quite a bit different than what most Americans or western Europeans think of.

Without getting into a long "Japanese culchurrr" spiel, suffice to say that the games (and many other franchises besides) are set in high school because high school is seen in a similar way to how we see college - the last period in life where you can kind of goof around and get into wild adventures before you have to settle down into adult life. So a Persona college-aged game would be fairly odd to the Japanese thematically - you'll notice it seems like they had to go oddly out of their way to involve the P3 cast in P4A. P4A does give the P4 crew a more obvious reason to be involved with the ongoing adventure post-school, though.

 

[Exploding8]

I just hope its middle school setting or so and has improved dungeon design...last bit of tartarus design felt weakish.

Why middle school? Middle school kids are terrible. At least sophomore and above in highschool the kids are a little bit more mature (lawl).

College would of course be the most awesome imo, but I think the school system is different there so I dunno.

Makes sense, explains why P3 seemed more like college to me (helps that I'm going to college in a city )
