PSN version of SMT: Persona slightly delayed, says Atlus
Those of you looking to by the unfettered digital version of SMT: Persona via PlayStation Network will have to wait a few extra days. Atlus announced that the digital version of the game will now be released on October 1. No word on why the digital version would be delivered late - perhaps Atlus wants to give the retail version of the game to have a few days of unopposed sales.
The boxed retail version of the game is still set for release on September 22. The advantage of the UMD version of the game is that it comes as a special boxed collector’s edition, including 2 music CDs that feature the game’s FULL soundtrack, all at no extra cost.
