Atlus has finally revealed the North American release date for Persona 4: Arena, the 360/PS3 fighting game featuring characters from the Persona universe. the game will be available on August 7, 2012, making it an excellent treat for the end of the summer.

As an added bonus the game will include both the original Japanese and English language tracks.

The game was developed by long time fighting game developer Arc System Works whose previous works include the Guity Gear and BlazBlue Series.  I know a number of people on staff here broken joysticks are excited to play Persona 4 Arena. I’m pretty new the Persona universe, but if Guilty Gear and BlazBlueI are any indication I’m sure all of this game as well.
