ATLUS have proved themselves worthy of creating a solid catalogue of video games, but because they lack a dedicated European branch, it can sometimes take quite some time for their games to reach our shores.

Fans of Persona 4 Arena will be pleased to learn that SEGA have picked up the publishing rights to the sequel in Europe, Persona 4 Arena Ultimax, and will be releasing the game in November 2014. Many will breath a sigh of relief, as it took two years for the original beat-em-up to reach our shores, and the contraversial region lock which affected the PlayStation 3 version. The Xbox 360 version was also affected, but it did not come as a surprise as most of the games for Microsoft’s console were restricted in the previous generation.

This news means that the release for Persona 4 Arena Ultimax will coincides with the European date for Persona Q, which will be released mere days after it’s American counterpart.
