There are some interesting prologue bits that help to show what some of the characters were doing in the gap of time between 'Persona 3' and this game, but other than that Episode P3 is the same general plot with a different set of characters to play as. While it does make sense from the plot's scenario, it can still make the already lengthy story scenes feel redundant.Īfter Episode P4 is finished, Episode P3 is unlocked, which follows the cast of 'Persona 3' during the events of 'P4AU'. As the groups are separated, they all tend to come to the same conclusions about what is going on around them, and the game sees fit to make them verbalize these conclusions multiple times. I did find that, because the episode was split in a way that made me jump between a few groups of characters, sometimes the dialogue would get a little redundant.

The story is a bit on the long side, with Episode P4 lasting at least five hours, but the story does sum up the plot from the original Arena game well enough.

Without going too far into the story's details, as they are chock full of spoilers for 'Persona 4 Arena', the plot in itself is serviceable. The plot makes the characters from 'Persona 4' the main focus, as Episode P4 follows the protagonists as a new threat quickly descends on the town of Inaba. Since 'Persona 4 Arena Ultimax' is a sequel/off-shoot to what is a content-packed 70-hour long RPG, the game's Story Mode will likely be the main draw for 'Persona' fans.
