Persona 4 Arena box art gets out

Atlus Japan has released the box artwork for Persona 4 Arena, showing off Persona 4's protagonist battling it out with newcomer Labrys.

Known over in Japan by the longer-winded name of Persona 4: The Ultimate in Mayonaka Arena, the fighter spin-off has been out in Japanese arcades for a few months now but is set to land on consoles there in August. It's also slated for the West with a vague date of 'Summer'. The console version of the game features a plethora of new features including a fully-voiced story mode which picks up several years after Persona 4 and all-new additions to the cast.

The game will provide hardcore fans with a first chance to hear the new voice actors of characters recast - they'll then reprise those roles in Persona 4: The Golden, the Vita port of the original title. See the box art below. Thanks, Andriasang.
