April, 22, 2008 – Atlus U.S.A., Inc. today announced that Persona 3 FES for the PlayStation 2 computer entertainment system, the highly anticipated definitive cut of 2007s RPG of the Year, is now shipping to retailers across North America. This is fantastic news for gamers as it means they will have something to play during the otherwise boring and uneventful week of April 29th.
Persona 3 FES has released to stunning acclaim. EGM gives it their Gold Award, scoring the game three As and exclaiming, "FES arrival -- at a budget price -- is the best thing to happen to role-playing games this year." Play Magazine deals FES perfect marks, 10 out of 10, and says, "Persona 3 FES is one of the best RPGs the PS2 has ever received, and one of the consoles proudest moments period." IGN grants their coveted Editors Choice Award, writing, "The fact that youre getting both the original and its virtual sequel for thirty dollars is a steal that no PS2 RPG fan should be without, and youre not likely to see such an excellent collection on the system again."
With two games on one disc -- a brand new chapter featuring 30+ hours of gameplay and an enhanced version of the original game loaded with new content and features -- Persona 3 FES is the comprehensive version of one of the most acclaimed RPGs of 2007.
