Persona 5 is Atlus' upcoming installment that can be considered as the cream-of-the-crop, as the hype around it has become almost a disease to the avid fans. Though the title is yet to come about, there are already a handful of details that spread itself online, and so far, it has looked rather fantastic.

According to Master Herald, there is a rather limited amount of information that the mass knows about Persona 5 for the time being. For the gamers that are yet to figure out more, Persona 5 typically revolves around the lives of a few high school students that take on different personas, enabling them to go against unruly threatening forces. As this may be the story, the gameplay and its corresponding features are also up to par with great promise.

It was reported by Christian Today that a Cooperation feature allows players to keep in touch with each other all throughout missions will be equipped within the gameplay system, as well as a Sneak Mode that permits a more covert approach when in need to engage in stealth. Furthermore, recent footages revealed that gamers will be granted a mini-game wherein their fighting skills can be honed through the use of a training dummy. More intriguingly, some characters were witnessed to have played baseball as well.

As delivered by Realty Today, Game Director Katsura Hashino explained further the setting, stating, "For this game, we're going with a challenge that fuses together a juvenile school setting that is as large as life, together with a picaresque romance. In the previous game, we wrote a story that involved having a justice group chase down a bad guy that could easily be feared by just about anyone." In addition to this, the developers confirmed that the characters will be able to steal hearts of the evil entities as another feature, making the abilities of the characters go to more intriguing heights.

Persona 5 is still scheduled to be released within the summer of 2016, and until Atlus speaks more about the title, fans are recommended to keep open ears for any and all changes that may occur in the expansion. Stay tuned for further news on Persona 5 by Atlus.
