'Persona 5' News: New Gameplay Footage Offers Closer Look at Battles, Previews Persona Interactions

'Persona 5' is set to be released in North America on April 4

By John Paul Sunico, Christian Post Contributor Tuesday, February 14, 2017

Numerous changes are included in "Persona 5," not the least of which are the ones that will directly impact the battle system.

Developers have already provided brief looks at this revamped combat system via previously released trailers, but for those who want an even better look at it, they can check out the new video shared by Gamespot, though fans should know that there are some spoilers for the early portion of the game also included.

These are important conversations as well, as players who are able to navigate through them properly can talk the Personas they encounter into joining them. However, it is unclear if these opportunities will be made accessible for all types of Personas that players encounter in battle so they will have to find that out for themselves.</p><p>Players will be able to learn more about the other new features included in "Persona 5" as soon as the game is officially released in North America on April 4.</p></p><p></p></article><div class="d-widget"
