Persona dancing games release bumped to 2018

Persona’s upcoming dance games are getting an earlier Western release than anticipated; they will launch Dec. 4, 2018. The two new rhythm games — Persona 3: Dancing in Moonlight and Persona 5: Dancing in Starlight — were originally slated for a 2019 release.

The games follow Persona 4: Dancing All Night launched in Japan in May. The two games take the familiar characters of the Persona games and thrust them into the mysterious Club Velvet, where they are forced to participate in a mystical dance party. Both games will include the soundtracks from their respective Persona games, plus new songs. There will be various difficulty levels and character interactions, as well as costumes and other accessories to collect.

A bundle of both Persona 3: Dancing in Moonlight and Persona 5: Dancing in Starlight and a digital download of Persona 4: Dancing All Night will be available, along with a hardcover artbook package. The Persona Dancing: Endless Night Collection will be available on PlayStation 4 ($99.99) and PlayStation Vita. Individually, the games will be $59.99 (PS4) and $39.99 (PS Vita) each. Pre-orders can be purchased on the Atlus site.
