Overview
Persona 4 Arena is an upcoming fighting game slated for release in arcades as well as on the PS3 and Xbox 360. The game will feature characters from both Persona 3 and Persona 4 on the roster accompanied by their personas. It is being developed together by Atlus, the creators of the Persona series, and Arc System Works, whose fighting game credits include the Guilty Gear and BlazBlue series.


Plot
+ Show Spoiler +
Two months after the events of Persona 4, Teddie suddenly disappears. A new rumor begins to spread across Inaba about a television program that appears if one looks into a turned off TV on a rainy night; a program by the name of "P-1 Grand Prix" where high school friends fight each other.

At the same time that this rumor starts, members of the Investigation Team start to go missing. The remaining members watch this program only to discover Teddie introducing the main characters as challengers of a tournament, but with catch phrases that they wouldn't normally say. The characters are surprised by this, so they decide to get together once more and enter the TV World to find out what happened to Teddie and what he is doing. However, while entering the Midnight Channel, something goes wrong and the characters who entered are separated and somehow brainwashed into fighting each other.

Given that the story takes place two months after the events of Persona 4, which ends on March 21st, 2012, P4U will most likely take place around May 21st, 2012. The story will also tell of how Aigis (who was originally in Persona 3) came to Inaba and how she became a participant in the P-1 Grand Prix.

Mitsuru, having become a university student and socialite since the events of Persona 3, visits Inaba after having a certain object stolen from her. Akihiko, having gone to college after graduating high school and then travelling the world in order to become a better fighter, receives an invitation from Mitsuru to join her in the tournament and returns to Japan. Persona 3's weapon's seller, Officer Kurosawa (who has since left the police force) makes a non-playable appearance.

The game's story mode will initially have four characters to choose from (Yu Narukami, Chie Satonaka, Yukiko Amagi and Yosuke Hanamura), with other characters being unlocked as the Story Mode is played through. It has been stated by the game's director Kazuhisa Wada, on the P4 Arena Official Blog, that Persona 4 Arena's story mode will be around 30 to 40 hours long.

Sad to see not much hype in this thread, this is the fighting game I've been waiting for.

Who's everyone looking at maining? I came into the game wanting to play Labrys or Mitsuru (because I am a Chun/footsies-oriented player) or maybe Yukiko, but now I think I'm going hardcore Chie and maybe experimenting with Naoto. Chie is just tooooo cool as a character and her pressure seems impossible to deal with.

Not gonna lie, I think this is a masterful game; it is the most fundamentally sound of all airdash-offense based fighters. Every character is unique and interesting, the game is not hard to pick up, it has a low execution barrier, but it retains all of the depth of games like MB and BB. If anyone is on the fence about this game, just buy it and give your soul to it, for real.

Anyone who wants to play and level up together (on PSN), shoot me a PM.

Note: I'm not very good.

So sour about the fact that Australia is yet to get a confirmed release date for this. Was a huge fan of BlazBlue back in the day (about a year ago ). Hope it gets shipped to our shores soon.

Pretty sure the PAL (EU) version which is released on Sept 7th works with Australian PS3's.

Tho yeah, the wait sucks and torturing myself watching all the hype/streams surrounding it certainly isn't helping.

Picked up my copy yesterday Chie-chan power!

at this point i wish i had more fighting game experience as there is so many technical things for someone who got it for being Persona related over fighting related. Right now im 2-16 online. loving it otherwise

Waited for GameStop to open and picked up my copy yesterday morning and played it for about 4 hours before work and I'm fiending to play some more lol. My main is Akihiko but I dabbled with other characters trials and I love the styles from each member of the cast. As stated already by other players Chie is fun as hell to play as, her offensive pressure is wild.

I haven't gotten on PSN to play but how is the netcode? Also I'm up for some games to help level up, I'm on PSN and my handle is KingKosi.

Chie combo video enjoy! ^_^

Almost exactly my story. Got to gamestop at 10am, had to work at 3. played the entire time in between. IMO as someone with minimal PSN experience the netcode isnt awful. Dont let the prefight scare you to much, it looks like its going to lag horribly but as the fight start it clears up a LOT.

My copy is supposed to arrive today, I'm so excited to play but the online play still needs to be fixed (360). Oh well, I will just have to practice Narukami or Naoto till then.

What happened at the end

In P4U moves can clash aganst one another. What I'm going to say is purely speculative on my part so if anyone with more knowledge has anything to share, feel free. To me, it seems that whenever 2 moves collide without hitting a player's hittable zone (ie, the character's body) is when you get a clash. There might be some sort of priority that moves have in this game, but I have no idea. In any case, since both players are using the same move with the same character, that point is moot. The move they're doing has invincibility on startup so neither player is ever coming into contact with the other's hittable zone. Hence the clash.

What seems to be the case is that after a clash, you can cancel the rest of the move into something else. Or maybe the move automatically gets canceled. If that's the case than this video is even sillier. Both players decided to cancel their DP into another DP until the timer ran out.

They're called DP's because they share similar properties to Dragon Punches in Street Fighter, but they have some very different properties as well. For one, to perform a DP in P4U, you only need to press the B and D attack buttons simaltaneously instead of needing a forward, down, down-foward motion plus attack in SF4. The tradeoff is that it costs health to perform a DP. So they both burn all their health performing this attack until only a sliver is left which results in a draw.

Mashing DP in fighting games is similar to what 6-pooling every game is to SC2. Brainless, completely scrubby, effective against bad players and subject to a lot of ridicule.

I wasn't sure if I was going to get this game as most of my friends aren't really into fightng games and I'm pretty bad at them in general. I watched the youtube recording of the Cross Counter pre-release tournament, caved in and ran to my nearest Gamestop to pick up a copy (literally ran to get there before it closed).

When Labrys was first announced I 100% wanted to make her my main. Unfortunately, I'm already feeling kinda "meh" about her style so I'm continuing down my list to Yukiko. So far she's clicking with me a lot more and I'll probably stick with her for now. Though the more I think about it, the more I really want to try out Aigis. Selective mixup offense with decent deffensive options attracts the Blanka player in me. The fact that she does incredibly high damage is just icing on the cake.

Really looking forward to this, gotta wait a bit longer

Gonna watch some Big Two tonight, they're gonna have it on

Was wondering, since I'm a pad player, what would be best for the button layout?

Oh shit, Spooky can't stream tonight due to ISP issues. Gotta wait till WNF then

I'm sure a lot of top players will try and take a crack at it as they do with most games but will see where it's at in a month. I think this game will have longevity though it's pretty damn good.

Can't wait for WNF btw!
