Persona 5, Atlus' supposed fifth installment, is still laid out on the horizon as the release date is yet to surface. As far as gameplay is concerned, Atlus spills out the facts that will be beneficial and gamers can look forward to as the game comes closer.

According to N4BB, Persona 5 was rumored to be delayed once more, but Atlus immediately thwarted all the claims aside. The entire team development has planned for the game to release by summer this year, and to further instigate on what fans can expect, Atlus' head is the one to orient gamers of them all.

As per Vine Report, the soonest that the game would come could be in May but is still left to be justified. Katsura Hashino, Persona's Game Director, gave fans an utter explanation of the characters that are to be in the said title as well as the place that the game is to be held on. One factor is placing the game in Tokyo, as to make the gamers feel a place that they are purely familiar with.

Other explanations claim that the young fans can possibly relate to the characters, as the game will start off with the characters feeling a certain degree of negativity within an unaccepting crowd as they try to fit in. As the story rolls on, the characters will rise above the circulating stereotypes and break the status quo once and for all, as per Christian Today.

Persona 5's characters are comprised of Ryuji Sakamoto, also known as Captain Kidd, Ann Takamaki who is dubbed Carmen, Morgana, the feline character with an alternate Persona of Zorro and Yusuke Kitagawa as the enigmatic Goemon. Furthermore, the PlayStation 4 exclusive series celebrates its 20th anniversary this year which promises more interesting news to the awaiting fans that expect something good to come from the development team.

Stay tuned for more Persona 5 news and updates.
