Atlus recently released two new trailers for its upcoming dungeon-crawling Nintendo 3DS title Persona Q: Shadow of the Labyrinth, featuring two of the game's characters from previous titles in the Persona series.
Persona 3's noted puddle of angst Shinjiro Aragaki gets a dark and brooding minute finished with a rousing electric guitar theme:
Persona 4's Yukiko Amagi is more well-adjusted, although she appears to be having minor existential issues:
Are these trailers inflaming more hype in your heart for Persona Q's late November release across Europe and the Americas, or will you be giving this one a miss? Let us know in the comments!

Looks good for when I pick this up 3 to 5 months from now on sale. This will be the first game from Atlus I'm deliberately waiting on a sale.
Getting this for Christmas hopefully. I just have too many games that I want and not enough money to buy them all.
Well, the problem it's launching together with Pokemon, so will have to wait for me.
Shinjiiiiiiii!
This game has been on the top of my hype list ever since it was teased last year!
Can't waaaiiiiitt!!!
Day one for me though I still don't know if the EU version is getting the second half of the Tarot cards of the first print if the game or as a pre-order bonus like the us version.
Most won't bother but for me I want them since I am importing Persona 4 arena ultimax and it's getting the first half of the set.
I still hate the fact they made them chibis... but I'll get over it, I'll buy it, I'll play it, I'll beat it, I'll 100% it, and I'll enjoy it. So no biggie.
Looks nice. Still waiting on reviews, though... and a $40 or lower price tag. I'm guessing I'll pick this up in half a year when the game is included in one of those frequent Atlus eshop sales.
I am super happy 3DS owners get to experience persona, but after playing 4 on the vita, it would take a lot of convincing for me to get this one.
Not dipped my toes in the series yet. I think I'll try Shin MGT 4 on 3ds first and see how that goes.
Wow this looks really good. Digging the music.
I love you Atlus. You have a day one customer in me. Keep turning this gold out....
PS. Still not crazy about the Art Style, can you make the sequel in standard Persona artstyle?
Ok I just thought of this just now and only just noticed it now. While I know the game is a side story the game can't make any sence if you played persona 3 and 4.
WARNING SPOILER BELOW IF YOU HAVE NOT PLAYED PERSONA 3. DO NOT READ THE BELOW COMMENT IF YOU HAVEN'T BEATEN THE GAME.
Ok persona 3 takes place on 09 and 4 takes place on 11. Since it has to be at least 2011 with the main characters of persona 4 having their personas, how the hell is Shinjiro alive. He is dead 2 years. Unless they explain it in the game it just doesn't make sense as a SMT fan.
@SilentHunter382 I think the idea in this game is some kind of "time-warp" scenario. Storywise it doesnt make sense but I'm just glad they didn't forget about ol' Shinji.
Yukiko, on the other hand, I couldn't care less about. I wanna see Chie, baby!
Nice trailers, as usual. Dang it! Sucks to wait some time longer to buy the game.
...Well, I was actually getting Persona 4 Arena Ultimax in its stead, but there are way too many games coming soon anyway.
This is hardly the right place for me to say this, but I want Atlus to make/publish more Wii U games other than Citizens of Earth and Shin Megami Tensei X Fire Emblem. They didn't put out a lot of Wii games, but I'd still like them to put out more on the U than they did its predecessor.
Anyway, can't wait for this game, it'll be my first in the Persona series.
It keeps looking better and better, I'm so hyped for this!!
This one has kind of fell off my radar with Fantasy Life and Monster Hunter coming I might be passing. Then again maybe not.
@SilentHunter382 I can explain it. In the P3 timeline it takes place spoilers a week or so before Shinji's death (when the typhoon happens).. Time and space travel are involved with both sides (P3/4) where they end up in an alternate dimension Yasogami High. So it's not actually REALLY Yasogami, and the P4 cast are trying to solve the mysteries behind it and the P3 cast basically just wants to get back but gets involved in the weirdness...
It is indeed canon too, so it'll be neat to see how it ties up.
They need to calm down that 49.99 price tag, seriously.
I feel Shinjiro's voice actor is the same, but still sounds a bit different? I preferred his original voice. I might buy this game just for Shinjiro.
I'm wondering if I'll be able to juggled this together with Pokemon and Smash.
