As the weeks count down to Persona Q: Shadow of the Labyrinth's release in Europe and North America, Atlus has posted four new character videos featuring the two out-of-dungeon but no less important support characters, the young tough, and the dog.
Your dungeon-crawling tour guide, the ever-helpful and somewhat nervous Fuuka, has powers of farsight are once again pressed into service in Persona Q:
Your other dungeon-crawling tour guide, the outgoing former idol singer Rise, brings a flair for show business drama while lending her support to the team:
Abrasive and aggressive goth roughneck Kanji's softer side expresses itself most unexpectedly in a love of the fiber arts:
In addition to being the cuddliest member of the Persona Q cast (with the possible exception of Teddie if you're into that sort of thing), Koromaru can lay out some serious hurt and look completely improbable while doing it:
Atlus has also released a short video covering a few basic party composition tips:
Are you more confident in trying Persona Q now that you've met the dungeon support team, or are you intrigued by the party composition options and their interpersonal conversation possibilities? Start the dialogue by leaving us a comment!

It's so close!
I'm also glad they let you name the P3/4 heroes. Because I hate how people call Minato "Makoto"... I know that was in the movie, but he was Minato first xD Minato Arisato and Yu Narukami = unstoppable team... Can't wait to play this!
After the big fuss I put up about the $80 price point on the collector's edition, I caved and got it. Think I'll keep it sealed though, next to my sealed Bravely Default collector's edition.
And I also took the plunge on that super sexy Grimoire 3DS XL. I don't even care that it's not the New 3DS. It looks so wonderful. ♥_♥
I still have to finish Persona 4, but I'm really excited to play this afterwards along with the Persona 4 Arena games!
@SpookyMeths
Worst part for me was that I actually wanted the BD one, but it got sold out on Amazon like 2 months before release. And I can get this one, and I don't really care about it.
About time Kanji got the spotlight
Does he have a new VA?
I have the standard one preordered. I am looking forward to this game. I really want the XL but I can't afford it right now, especially with Christmas coming up.
Notice me senpai!
Doesn't even have a clue who that is..
Almost here!
@MegaBeedrill Then you shouldn't play this one
@Squid Nope, still Troy Baker. Unless you are one of those people who only watched the anime where T-Bakez only voiced Kanji for half the season..
@B3ND3R Ah, well it's good that it's still Troy Baker then. I guess for some reason he sounded different to me.
@Squid Yeah, he's had an interesting voice progression over the years... Still funny playing Saints Row 3 knowing I have the voice of Kanji..
Are the bosses Shadows of Yu and company like in P4 again?
@Squid Actually, Troy stopped voicing Kanji at the first half of the P4 Animation and P4A. Ever since Golden, it's been Matthew Mercer.
Can't blame you though, a lot of people have said that Matthew is basically Troy 2.0. It's hard to tell the difference unless you really listen.
i'm absolutely loving my first ever experience of a Shin Megami Tensei game (4). Can anyone explain what the main differences in the Persona games are compared to Shin Megami Tensei?? @B3ND3R
@PanbanRichard yeah, I realized this today. Saw a few interviews with em talking about passing on Kanji. It's weird because when Q was first being localized he was on board.. Then I guess he dropped it for something else.
@SUBTERRANEANguy persona is a spinoff. Basically call the SMT demons personas that high schoolers summon to fight monsters called shadows and you got Persona. Of course there's a lot more to it than that, but that's the gist.. I would say play at least persona 4 before jumping into this one.. Or watch Persona 4 the Animation (not Golden however.... Marie ruins it all for me). You need to have an already acquired appreciation for the series before even touching Q to get the full feels.
@B3ND3R Huh, Troy was onboard for Q? Maybe he dropped it because of the push he got since The Last of Us.
@B3ND3R cheers, no probs. I'm getting Persona Q first day regardless, but might watch the anime you mentioned.
@PanbanRichard Seems to be the case, because I remember reading an interview where he stated he had begun work on it.. At least Mercer sounds SUPER similar to him!
@SUBTERRANEANguy Yeah, definitely pick it up, as for the anime, watch it in English, this is one of the few times I really enjoy the English voice work (Since I'm used to their voices from playing P4).
@Sikboy1029 No, the bosses are more akin to Persona 3. As in unrelated to the cast but causing problems...
