Persona: Ikuu no Tou Hen to Appear on Switch and PC

G-Mode will release Megami Ibunroku Persona: Ikuu no Tou Hen for the Nintendo Switch and Windows PC in Japan. However, there is no release date, nor is there any information on whether or not it will appear overseas. Megami Ibunroku Persona: Ikuu no Tou Hen originally came out for phones in Japan on December 1, 2006.

Here is a trailer for Megami Ibunroku Persona: Ikuu no Tou Hen:

It looks to be a remaster of the original title, so it still looks like a game that you would play on a phone. As for the story, it’s based on the original Persona and is a spin-off that takes place during the events. The Deva System transports the protagonists to a bizarre space in between worlds, in which demons roam. They must then try to find a way back to their world, all while fighting or negotiating with the demons they come across.

The story will not be the same as the first Persona. However, it will have similar mechanics, such as negotiation and Fusion. It is also similar to a roguelike in which your party dying will lead to you losing all of your money and items. This will create a more “thrilling” experience, according to G-mode’s webpage for the game.

Megami Ibunroku Persona: Ikuu no Tou Hen is in development for the Nintendo Switch and Windows PC. It will only be available digitally. G-Mode previously ported Megami Tensei Gaiden: Last Bible New Testament III: Mugen no Eiyuu to its G-Mode Archives+ collection. Since this never made it overseas, there’s a high chance that Ikuu no Tou Hen will remain exclusive to Japan.
