Shin Megami Tensei: Persona to be relased on UMD, PSN

Atlus U.S.A.’s Shin Megami Tensei: Persona for PSP, the remake of the first chapter in the Persona RPG series, will launch simultaneously at retail and via PlayStation Network on September 22. Retail customers have an added incentive to pre-order; the UMD release of SMT: Persona is a Collector’s Edition boxed set, with every launch copy containing the game’s full 2-disc musical score created by composer Shoji Meguro.

Shin Megami Tensei: Persona is currently scheduled to release in stores and via PlayStation Network on September 22, 2009. Both versions have an MSRP of $39.99, but only the physical launch copies will include the game’s soundtrack on 2 discs, all packaged in a premium oversized outer box.
