The Dark Hour Spreads Across North America; Persona 3 FES Now Shipping

Atlus has announced yesterday that Persona 3 FES for the PS2 is now shipping to retailers across North America. This is fantastic news for gamers as it means they’ll have something to play during the otherwise boring and uneventful week of April 29th. Yes, that was a joke so no hateful comments please.

Persona 3 FES has two games on one disc: a brand new chapter featuring 30+ hours of gameplay and an enhanced version of the original game loaded with new content and features. A spin-off of the RPG Persona, FES (or “Festival of Persona 3″) has new gameplay that comes primarily in the form of the “Gojitsudan,” a story sequence that comes after the original’s ending, with new cinematic sequences in addition to the added gameplay. While the main storyline is the same, it’s been tuned up with new events. Gameplay has been updated as well, with a new “hard” setting (the original had just easy and normal), 23 new Personas, a weapon synthesis system and a system for changing your characters’ clothes.
