Persona 3 PSP special edition detailed

RPG sequel finally hits European shelves.

Forthcoming PSP RPG Persona 3 Portable is getting a handsome Collector's Edition when it launches next month, publisher Ghostlight has announced.

According to its official site, you'll get the following extras:

  • 48-page hardback art book.
  • Six limited-edition art cards.
  • A3 poster.
  • Special reversible Collector's Edition inlay.
  • Exclusive slipcase featuring additional artwork.

On top of all of that, if you pre-order through the game's website, which goes live later this week, you'll snag an exclusive T-shirt too.

The Atlus-developed sequel, which launched in Japan way back in November 2009, arrives on these shores "sometime in mid-to-late April".

It should be worth the wait. The handheld remake of the 2006 PlayStation 2 timesink scored 9/10 when Eurogamer's Chris Schilling got hold of a US import last year.

"Just about the definitive version of one of the finest role-players of the last five years," our man insisted.
