About Persona 4

Persona 4 is a role-playing game from Atlus, released on July 10, 2008, for PlayStation 2 and PlayStation 3. It is a single-player title with a third-person view that blends the role-playing and adventure genres. The game belongs to the Persona series, part of the Megami Tensei franchise, and carries an ESRB M (Mature 17+) rating. Ubisoft Australia co-published it alongside Atlus.

The story takes place in Inaba, a rural town where the player's character spends a year living with relatives. Strange deaths and a thick fog drive the plot forward, and the game is tagged with fantasy, comedy, and drama themes. It also carries an open world theme, which fits its focus on exploring the surrounding area.

Gameplay centers on calling upon Personas, which represent each character's inner self, to fight creatures known as Shadows. Players also form bonds with townspeople and classmates while managing school, part-time work, and visits to a hidden world inside the television.
