New PSV game from FuRyu with scenario writer from Persona 1 and 2. Well it certainly has a Persona-vibe, its come out in June in japan and there is hopes of it being picked up by a publisher for a western release. The game looks like it could be promising, any thoughts on what to expect from it?

Looks like persona with a different skin.

I only expect that it retain the grand orgy scene. And that awesome lesbo scene. And Malcolm MacDowell needs to make a cameo.
This is a remake of the original, right?

[AnimeGamer183]

its a totally new IP, unless I dont understand what you are refering to. its a new game from FuRyu with some Persona staff, its not an Atlus game.

It was just a joke.
Caligula was a 70s movie about Roman Caesar Caligula, known primarily in history for his penchant for depravity. The movie was high-budget, but chock full o' porn. A classic through and through.

So y'know... kind of a weird name for a JRPG.

It may have waited until the very end of E3 to announce it, but Atlus USA will be releasing FuRyu and Aquria's Caligula in both North America and Europe. The PlayStation Vita-exclusive title will be released digitally-only in both regions sometime in 2017.

Calilgua is a turn-based RPG set in Moebius: a self-contained virtual reality ruled over by a superintelligent AI. Trapped in its virtual high school, the game's heroes long to escape and return to reality. There are over five hundred "students" in Moebius, each of which has his or her own profile and reasons for initially wanting to escape from reality in Moebius and can potentially be recruited as a party member. The game is written by Tadashi Satomi, who previously worked on the first Persona and both Persona 2 games.

NIce. Atlus is bringing it over for the western localization. Looks pretty good, may be a pre-order for me I am liking where its going. Plus its on Vita so why the hell not?

Atlus are actually releasing a niche game in Europe? I will support this crazy endeavor.

I might get it if just to remind myself that I own a vita.

Anyone remember what that kenka bancho/yakuza look alike game was called and if it has any chance of localisation?

^^You mean Uppers?
I haven't heard anything yet, but it also isn't out in Japan until July. So the timer hasn't necessarily run out on it or anything.
