After it was leaked last week, Atlus has officially announced Persona 5 Scramble for the west. The game will launch in North America and Europe on February 23, 2021.
Pre-orders bonuses are planned for two retailers. At Best Buy, you’ll receive a steelbook, digital soundtrack with over 40 songs, digital art book, and behind the scenes video. GameStop is offering a Joker pin.
Atlus will also offer a Digital Deluxe Edition for Persona 5 Strikers. It includes the same digital soundtrack, digital art book, and behind the scenes video from Best Buy, but also extra item packs and more music from the Persona series. Just as significant is that you’ll get four days early access with its release scheduled for February 19, 2021.

It was revealed earlier today that Persona 5 Scramble: The Phantom Strikers is heading west as Persona 5 Strikers in February. Atlus didn’t intend for that news to be shared so early, but the cat is out of the bag in any case. There’s been speculation that the reveal was planned for The Game Awards 2020 next week.
Despite the leak, Atlus isn’t making an official announcement just yet. The company is instead teasing news for the game that will be shared on December 8. We’ve already seen the trailer and know the release date, so we’re not expecting any bombshells. Still, that should be when official commutation begins.

Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne HD Remaster has tech issues, but Atlus planning a patch
Posted on 4 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne HD Remaster debuted in Japan about a month ago, but player reports haven’t been entirely encouraging so far. The game suffers from a few technical issues, which has made some fans in the west rethink purchasing the game when it’s localized in Spring 2021.
Fortunately, Atlus is aware of the situation, and is now looking to improve the HD release. The company said in a blog post today that a patch is planned. Atlus is looking into the behavioral speed in specific places, in addition to some phenomena thought to be caused by bugs.
Atus says it’ll follow up when it’s done checking the issues and making a list of fixes for an upcoming update.
English version of Persona 5 Scramble: The Phantom Strikers listed for 2021 release by Asian retailers
Posted on 4 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Persona 5 Scramble: The Phantom Strikers launched back in February, but there’s been no word from Atlus yet regarding English localization. However, there’s a bit of encouraging news coming out of Asia.
Indonesian retailer PS Enterprise, Pakistani retailer Toyorgame, and Singapore retailer Qisahn all have listings for the game. Furthermore, they have a February 23, 2021 date. According to PS Enterprise, the listing was created due to confirmation from their supplier that the game is launching in 2021.
Note that today’s listings are for a “Region 3” English release. What that means is SEGA’s Asian branches would be publishing rather than Atlus West. It’s unclear if and when Atlus would bring the game to other regions officially including North America and Europe.
