Persona 4 has been announced for the PlayStation 2 and will be released in Japan on July 10. The game features 180+ Persona, multiple endings, and 60-70 hours of play time. Persona 4 shares many of Persona 3's fundamentals such as the Social Link system and graphical engine.

Unlike previous Persona games that took place in cities, Persona 4 has a countryside setting designed to create a melancholic atmosphere. Not much is known about the game's story other than it having something to do with murder and mystery, creating lots of twists similar to what Persona 2 did. In terms of gameplay, a weather forecast system is used to detect when fog is approaching, which then means a murder is soon to occur.
