Atlus announced today it's bringing Persona 4 Arena to North America this summer for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. The 2D fighting spin-off title features characters from both Persona 3 and 4.

"The Persona series has had tremendous success in North America, and Persona 4 in particular opened the series up to wider audiences than ever before," said Tim Pivnicny, Vice President of Sales and Marketing at Atlus.

"Now we're looking to expand Persona even further by teaming up with a very strong partner, Arc System Works, to move the franchise outside of the RPG genre and develop its potential in new and exciting ways."

Still would like to see Persona 5 but this could be good

I dig the cel shaded art style though I would rather take persona 5 over this

Looks nice but I will wait for Persona 5, it seems this is more of a fighting one instead of having the story lines that you have to work hard at like the other ones.
by Deth Garcia Tuesday, February 21, 2012 at 04:29 PM

this is good news to fighting game fans, and for the persona fans, just wait until persona 4 vita, P5 is in early stages of development from what i heard

Seems pretty cool. What I really want to hear is how Persona 5 is coming along in development. But yea, might pick this up just for the heck of it since I love Persona 4 so much. Wouldn't mind playing as Chie.
