Why it matters
The western release carries the same staff names that defined early Persona and Shin Megami Tensei, which is the pitch Idea Factory International is selling to a region that has not played the game yet.
Kōji Okada is planning producer, with Tadashi Satomi as scenario writer and Ilya Kuvshinov as character designer, and FRAM performs both theme songs.
The western release will follow the Japanese version by roughly a year and a half, and Idea Factory International is carrying the full staff credits across with it. Kōji Okada, who co-founded Atlus and co-created Shin Megami Tensei and Persona, is listed as planning producer, with Tadashi Satomi on scenario and Ilya Kuvshinov on character design. FRAM performs the opening and ending themes. Physical editions are planned for PS5 in North America and Europe, and for Switch and PS4 in North America. The Japanese release covers PS4, PS5, Switch, and Switch 2.
