![]() ![]() Though for a nice challenge, there is the GoldenArena which I dropped way too much time into as I completed floor after floor in one of four difficulties in this challenge dungeon.įor the ultimate challenge though you can take Persona 4 Arena: Ultimax online and compete against other players all over the world in everything from casual matches all the way up to ranked matches there is even an arcade style lobby so you chat up fellow fighting fans and complete in matches. Personally I enjoyed the Versus mode so I can challenge my friends to a good old fashioned rumble. There’s also the traditional ScoreAttack where you can go up against the CPU for the high score. For starters you have the Arcade Mode which allows you to play Persona 4 Arena: Ultimax (P4AU for short) without having to go through all the backstory with your favorite Persona character. To make things cooler you get to see the story from two different sides broken up between the casts of Persona 3 and 4.įor those wanting to get right to the fighting there are plenty of options in Ultimax to do just that. There are easily around 50 or more events throughout the story though about a fifth of them are actual fights. For those familiar to the Persona series then you know that reading is a big part of the experience and here in Ultimax it is no difference. The main chunk of the game takes place it its Story Mode which could easily take you 10+ hours to complete as you make your way through dialogue and fighting alike in a visual novel presentation. Ultimax offers players plenty of ways to enjoy this fighter even if you’re new to the Persona 4 Arena series. So it’s up to Yu, Chie, Kanji, Yosuke and the rest of the gang to head back into battle as a red fog overtakes the city of Inaba as they set out to save Mitsuru and her associates in the Shadow Operatives. This time the tournament spills out of the TV into the real world as the P-1 Climax promises to be an end of the world Sho stopper…literally. Taking place nearly right after the events that turned the mysterious TV World into a tournament ground in Arena, Yu Narukami and the rest of the Investigation Team are back as the Midnight Hour starts up once again. It’s no secret that fighters rarely have engaging stories outside of likes of Injustice but Ultimax’s engaging story was enough to get me hooked. While I never got around to playing it for some reason or another it’s sequel of sorts, Ultimax, has proved to satisfy both my love of RPGs and my enjoyable but not always rewarding run at the fighter genre in a rather surprising way. ![]() What really piqued my interest though was that the Persona franchise was getting a fighting game in the form of Persona 4 Arena which released back in 2012 by Arc Systems (BlazBlue) and Atlus. So I’ve been a fan of the Persona series for a while now especially having dumped hours into Persona 3 and Persona 4(both but Golden for my portable sessions) and I have to say the story heavy experiences really draw me in. Don’t touch that dial, don’t turn off that TV, the Sho is about to start with another beary exciting installment of Persona with the release of Persona 4 Arena: Ultimax for the PlayStation 3.
