Atlus has released a new trailer for Persona 5 Scramble, giving us a new look at this action spin-off and how it’ll mix a musou gameplay style with the aesthetics of Persona. Going by this footage, it looks like a good blend.
The trailer shows off some interesting samples of what to expect, including what appears to be some light stealth, similar to what was present in Persona 5. There are also platforming elements, as Joker and other characters are shown jumping and exploring environments.
There’s also motorbike combat shown off in the trailer, as well as a snowboarding section, and even some social scenarios and non-combat areas. It looks like Persona 5 Scramble will contain a lot of very Persona-y elements.
It looks like there will be plenty of cutscenes in the game, and that Persona’s distinct art style is intact.
The game is due to release in Japan for PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch on February 2, 2020. A western release has not been confirmed yet, but it seems likely considering the success of Persona 5.
Persona 5 Scramble is not the only Persona 5 game releasing in 2020. Persona 5 Royal is coming to PS4 on March 31, and will greatly expand on the original game.
