Persona has had amazing success in the RPG genre, so much so, there was even an anime adaptation created that was also fairly successive. Why stop there? Persona 4 Arena takes the characters and setting from Persona 4 and turns the genre into 2D fighting. Surely this sounds like a simple spinoff to make some extra cash off the loyal Persona fanbase. As plausible as that sounds, it certainly isn’t true. Persona 4 Arena is not a game to be taken lightly as it emerges as a significant fighting game that can stand on its own legs. 9/10
