Based on comments from an Atlus staffer, it sounds like Shin Megami Tensei IV has been reconfirmed as digital-only in Europe. It also seems that getting the game out in the continent has been a bit of a mess.

Aikatsu! 365 Idol Days’ first trailer, posted above, shows that you’ll have to schedule your lessons and work – like posing and photo-shoots.

Aikatsu! 365 Idol Days launches in Japan on December 4. The game’s three junior idols – Akari ?zora, Sumire Hikami and Hinaki Shinj? – will be featured in the new Aikatsu! anime series that is debuting in October.
