It's been awhile since Atlus Co. has developed games - now they have announced four new titles in the Shin Megumi spin-off Persona. Four new Person Games have been revealed and Atlus has confirmed they will be released in North America very soon.

The four new Persona games are Persona Q: Shadow of the Labyrinth, Persona 4 Arena Ultimax, Persona 4: Dancing All Night, and the newly anticipated sequel Persona 5.

Here are the new four Persona Games, take a look at the trailers:

Persona Q: Shadow of the Labyrinth

Chibi-style dungeon crawl Persona Q: Shadow of the Labyrinth will reach the 3DS in the fall of 2014. Atlus describes the dungeon crawl as a cross between Etrian Odyssey and Persona that sees characters from Persona 3 and 4 plumbing the first-person depths of an alternate version of Yasogami High School. Legend has it that listening to the end of the bell chimes of Yasogami High's clock tower causes people to die, and this time the bell tolls for the Investigation Team and the SEES. Trapped in an other-world filled with Shadows, the protagonists from Persona 3 and Persona 4 each have different events to follow, allowing the player to choose and experience two different plotlines. As both groups seek a way out of the labyrinth, they will run in to two new characters, Rei and Zen, who may hold the secret to this new mystery.

Persona 4 Arena Ultimax

Persona 4 Arena Ultimax, an enhanced re-release of Persona 4 Arena, is slated to debut on the PlayStation 3 in the Fall of 2014. Atlus' description of the fighting game mentions the addition of two characters from Persona 3, Junpei Iori and Yukari Takeba, as well as a wholly new character, the mysterious Sho Minazuki.

Persona 4: Dancing All Night

A more nebulous "2015" release window has been attached to Vita rhythm game Persona 4: Dancing All Night. According to Atlus' description, Dancing All Night stars pop idol Rise, who returns to Inaba only to discover something called the "Midnight Stage." This Stage is populated by evil shadows, but these foes can't be defeated by simple elemental attacks. Instead, Rise will have to rely on funky fresh dance moves.

Persona 5

Persona 5, the latest entry in Atlus' fan-favorite series, will also reach the PlayStation 3 in 2015, though Atlus offers no further information on this heavily anticipated roleplaying game.
