February 4, 2009 - Atlus is going revival-crazy on the psp. The latest issue of Japan's Weekly Famitsu magazine has first details on two classic revivals from the company: Persona and Growlancer. Both are due for the Japanese psp in the coming months.
Persona is a "remake" of the original PlayStation psp games of the same name, and the first entry in a series that has spawned multiple sequels, most recently Persona 4 for the PS2. We put "remake" in quotes here because it's a bit unclear at this point how much of the game has changed from the original. The psp games version will feature balance changes, including additional save points, an adjusted encounter rate, and the ability to select between beginner, normal, and expert difficulty at the main options screen.
The one thing we are sure is totally new is the game's event scenes. Atlus is using new movies to help tell the story in the PS2 version.
Japan will get the psp games version of Persona on April 29, carrying a full 5,229 yen price point.
The other game is most likely a bit less known in the Western world. Growlanser is a fantasy RPG that features a mix of event sequences and overhead strategic battles. The series is known for its character designs.
The PS2 version is an updated port of the PlayStation original. Updates include higher speed battles and new artwork for event scenes. The game will also feature new scenarios for the more popular of the game's cast, along with at least one new character, the purple-haired Amelia.
Growlanser will follow Persona's release on May 14, priced even higher, at 6,090 yen.
Both titles are currently scheduled for release only in Japan. We'll let you know if Atlus announces either for American release.
