The latest chapter in the long-running Persona series, an offshoot of the Shin Megami Tensei series, is 95% complete, and will be released in Japan this July.
While Persona 2: Eternal Punishment was about adults instead of students, Persona 3's bringing the series back to its school-based 'roots', again following a cast of students who have to contend with the summoning of alternate demonic personalities.
Atlus USA plans to bring the next chapter to the US later in the year, as their showcasing it at E3 suggests.
Fun fact: Persona 3's artwork isn't being done by series mainstay Kazuma Kaneko, but the character designer from Stella Deus: The Gate of Eternity.
The designs look like they'll work just fine, since his style's also very unique.
