Atlus sucks at keeping secrets.
I have to congratulateAkayukifor digging these up, as the Atlus website is totally devoid of any information on the game (since, y’know, it doesn’t officially exist yet). Info onP4is sparse, and unless you are fluent in moonspeak, this trailer isn’t going to fix that.
The second half of the trailer (available after the jump) shows a bit of gameplay and some combat, both of which should seem familiar if you playedPersona 3(please do). It seems like Social Links and the tarot influences are back, and the art style and character models are instantly recognizable (Hi, Igor! Nice limo).
That being said, I’m going to reserve judgement — as much as I lovedPersona 3, which wasa lot, I’d rather see a new, innovative experience thanPersona 3.5. I know that Atlus is capable of innovation in a genre that most people think is stagnant, and I would hate for the bar, admirably raised, to get stuck at Social Links and persona fusion.
