Hot off the heels of the Nendoroid for the annoying Morgana comes a figma of Joker, the cool protagonist of Persona 5. The fearless leader is the first character from Persona 5 to be converted to figma form, and he's here to steal your shel...   read

Famitsu magazine held a poll at the end of June, asking its readers to vote on what they think are the best role-playing games of all time are. The results are in, and the top 20 answers are on the board. Despite releasing this year, Japane...   read

Way back in February, we wrote about multiple figures for Persona 5 coming down the road from Good Smile Company, which included the annoying cat Morgana. Since then, we've seen the figure of Futaba Sakura put up for pre-order with no word ...   read

One of my favorite collections has to be my SMT/Persona box (which I just recently added a giant Take Your Heart edition for Persona 5 to that I need to consolidate). It's one of those icebreaker series that's easy to introdu...   read

It looks like a few splash pages went up a little early on Atlus' website last night. Maybe they were waiting on an announcement during Nintendo's E3 presentation? Either way, they're fully confirmed now.  The cat is out of the bag, as...   read

Sega retains its stranglehold on E3 badges, but not in the way that we're used to. The E3 2017 badge art has just been revealed, and Persona's three year reign has come to an end. Instead, it's Yakuza 6 and 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim ...   read

Persona 5 fans, the promised time has come: Phat Company's Futaba Sakura figure is up for pre-order! Hopefully you won't have to become some kind of phantom thief to obtain one.   read

[Update: Atlus just sent us an update with the following statement: "We sent out an announcement yesterday about The Caligula Effect being delayed in the EU, but this is no longer the case. The game is out now digitally in Europe." Original...   read

The next vinyl from iam8bit is a big one: Persona 5! It's such a good candidate that I can see it pushing people into game vinyl ownership for the first time -- assuming they have the money. There will be two sets, both of which will ship i...   read

Along with restricting use of the PlayStation 4's built-in share feature for Persona 5, earlier this month Atlus issued harsh guidelines for folks who still intended to stream the game or upload footage. It was the kind of thing reviewers w...   read

If you're knee deep in Persona 5 but feel like you haven't accomplished much yet, I feel you. It's a long ass video game, made even longer when you're compelled to re-run dungeons to level up and wander around Tokyo aimlessly trying to cour...   read

At some point in Persona 5, and I won't reveal too much as I know it's a long ass game, the crew has access to a blog called a "Phan-Site," which covers their goings on. Naturally someone decided to create their own real Phan-Site, and whil...   read

When The Caligula Effect creeps out this May 2, you won't be able to get a physical edition. Even Limited Run Games tried to make it happen, but were not successful. On the bright side, it will cost $39.99, €39.99, or £...   read

In addition to the four extra characters and the free DLC levels coming to King of Fighters XIV, we're also getting new costumes -- and it looks like a decent amount of effort was put into them. The four that have been revealed by way of a...   read

Atlus may have effectively banned in-depth streaming for Persona 5, but that won't stop people from turning arguably the most anticipated JRPG of the last few years into a meme machine.  In the few days since the game's release, in fac...   read

Right before launch, it was revealed that Atlus and/or Sega were implementing strict guidelines when it came to streaming Persona 5. This wasn't a "you should probably do this" type of thing either -- they were threatening to hit channels ...   read

Just a few days after the worldwide release, Persona 5 has moved over 1.5 million copies. For context, the only single Persona game that has reached over one million worldwide lifetime sales so far is Persona 4: Golden. Atlus added tha...   read

Localizing a game is no easy task, especially a game like Persona 5. It's a good game, but also a huge one, and localizing it was apparently a mammoth undertaking for Atlus USA. With reportedly 50% more dialogue in its script compared ...   read

As you may have heard or discovered first-hand, Persona 5 restricts access to the PlayStation 4's share feature, a move Atlus says has to do with the "single-playthrough story" and a fear of spoilers. Today, the company elaborated on its ga...   read

Although the DLC for Persona 5 will roll out in the coming weeks according to this schedule, you can grab some stuff for free now. That includes the healing item and skill card sets (read: boosts), a Japanese audio track, and a new difficul...   read

Ah, the age old question -- Shin Megami Tensei or Persona. Well maybe not "age old," as the original Persona was introduced in 1996, four years after SMT -- it's barely two decades old. But right around Persona 3 is where I starte...   read

Not that you need any more reminders, but Tuesday is Persona 5 day in North America and Europe. That date, April 4, is easy enough to remember. But there's a whole mess more to keep track of in terms of DLC. For everyone's convenience, Atlu...   read

Easy-to-use, baked-in game capture functionality is one of the best aspects of this console generation. Taking screens and video or even streaming a game can be a mere button press away, and I've grown so accustomed to the feature on PS4, X...   read
