Persona 5.

Persona 5 delayed to April 4, 2017

April showers bring Japanese role-playing games.

Atlus announced today during a stream on its Twitch channel that Person 5 will no longer come out in the U.S. on February 14. The PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 3 role-playing game is now releasing on April 4. This isn’t the first delay for the anticipated game, which was originally supposed to come out in the U.S. in late 2016. Fans of the series, which has sold over 6 million copies worldwide according to Sega (which owns Atlus), will have to wait a little longer.
