Buoyed by the never-ending (and outrageous) success of Episode 5, the Persona saga returns to its former glory with Persona 4 Arena Ultimax, yes, but on Switch… and not only!
Almost ten years ago, Atlus had the bright idea of teaming up with the goldsmiths at Arc System Works to offer Persona 4 Arena, the famous spin-off of the Shin Megami Tensei series, in the form of a fighting game. A decade and a numbered episode later, the situation has obviously changed, and as such, with some sense of timing, SEGA will offer an ultimate reimagining of its versus battles, with Persona 4 Arena Ultimax finally announcing its release date. Exit.
Persona 4 Everyone
If Persona 5 Strikers was able to expand the Phantom Thieves’ adventures across Japan, Persona 4 Arena Ultimax forces the 2008 game’s heroes in the ring to step back into service and compete in a massive art tournament. in the purest tradition of the genre. It’s now official: the PC, PS4 and Switch versions will be available on March 17, 2022, as this new trailer reveals with panache.
Thus, the twenty pugilists on one of Atsushi Kitajō’s compositions recall the few novelties to be expected from this Ultimax version:
- The presence of all the content previously released for Person 4 Arena, including the story mode
- An XXL cast featuring the fighters from Persona 3 and their “Shadow” versions, offering many different playstyles
- Dual Audio: Choose between Japanese and American voice
While we wait to discover what Atlus has in store for us for the very chimeric Persona 6, Persona 4 Arena Ultimax is set to break some mouths (again) on March 17th on PC, PS4, and Switch.
