You know things won’t end well when there’s an alarm going off in the Velvet Room, especially when Theo and Elizabeth are just as confused by it as the rest of the S.E.E.S. from Persona 3. Wait, how did the entire group get into the Velvet Room? What’s going on?!
Well, you’ll just have to find out in the P3 Story trailer!
Plus, we have a first look at Zen, one of the characters making a debut in Persona Q. Zen, along with his partner Rei, is a formidable back line character, excelling at ranged damage with his crossbows. Even though he can’t use a Persona, he can use unique spells of every element type making him extremely versatile. Fiercely protective of his Rei, he will stop at nothing to keep her safe.
Rounding out today’s trailers is DA MAN himself, Junpei Iori. The Ace Defec…er, Detective is back with his Persona Hermes and Agi-based attacks to compliment his two-handed weapon damage. Junpei is a solid front-line damage dealer, but finding a good sub-Persona is the key to making him more than just a situational party member.
Persona Q is a first-person dungeon crawling RPG adventure that combines the casts of the hit ATLUS games Persona 3 and Persona 4 in a brand new story. Not only is Persona Q the first new RPG in the Persona franchise since 2008, but it is also marks the first time a Persona game will release on a Nintendo platform.
The Persona development team joined forces with the Etrian Odyssey development team to create a true fusion of the two franchises – Persona Q features the map-making and first person exploration from Etrian games and fuses it with the character development, combat, and motifs of the Persona games. Persona Q will be available at retail stores in normal and premium editions:
