The turn-based role-playing game for PSP is an enhanced port of Shin Megami Tensei spin-off title Megami Ibunroku Persona, first appearing on Sony PlayStation in 1996. Notable differences include the original opening movie and full-motion video cutscenes, depicting characters designed by Kazuma Kaneko.
