In Japan, Atlus is releasing free downloadable sub-personas for Persona Q: Shadow of the Labyrinth. They should make their way west when the game lands in North America later this year.

First up, Kaguya from Persona 4: The Golden will be available next week. Kaguya is at level 16 and possesses a unique skill known as Moon’s Blessing. This stops one attack each turn and has a three turn duration.

On June 18, Orpheus Kai from Persona 3 will be available as well. Orpheus comes in at level 26 and can use Harp of Regeneration to recover HP and removes negative status effects for all allies each turn. This is also a three turn duration effect.
