Tough break, Persona 5 fans. During today's livestream event to promote the English version of the game, Atlus revealed Persona 5 won't hit its Feb. 14 release date, and will instead hit the PS4 April 4.
To soften the blow, Atlus announced that the international version of the game will include a dual audio option. Originally, the game would be English only, without Japanese audio.
Some fans took to Twitter to vent about the delay:
Look, with every delay, the chances increase that Persona 5 doesn't get released before I get sent off to some kind of re-education gulag

Still, others were thrilled at the prospect of dual English / Japanese audio.
