It comes as little surprise at this point, but Persona 5 still looks fantastic judging by the title's latest gameplay showcase. Captured by Gematsu from the game's most recent livestream, there's 18 minutes of footage to bury your eyes into, which includes side activities such as fishing, watching TV, and, most importantly, going on cheeky dates to the movies with your potential girlfriend.
By the looks of it, Persona 5 is taking things to the next level when it comes to the series' social side, allowing the protagonist to partake in an impressive array of optional content. Don't worry too much if you're here for some shadow-slaying action, though - there's some super stylish combat gameplay near the end of the video. Persona 5 is out this September in Japan, and it's coming West in 2017.
How's your hype holding up for this one? Take off your mask and build some social links in the comments section below.
Update: Argh, Atlus has taken the video down. We'll replace it as soon as we can find the same footage.

Can't Wait
My hype level for Persona 5 is absolutely off the charts. There is literally no game that I want more than this.
I really want to hear the full version of the battle theme SO BADLY.
It feels like whoever cut this together stopped caring near the back end of the video.
Persona is one of my favorite series on PlayStation. This is going to be incredible. I urge people- if you haven't tried this series, now would be a great time to jump in.
I can't play the video.
God damn Atlustube!
Can't wait to get a pre-owned copy, looks fun.
One of my most anticipated games of '17 , the love I lost with FF I gained with Persona.
Gematsu have updated their article with links to other copies of the video
A while ago I admitted I preferred the first two Persona games to the recent ones...but now I'm nearly sixty hours into Persona Golden my opinion has changed dramatically!Seriously the game is amazing and I don't want it to end and now I am so hyped for Persona 5 it's beyond belief
@Wazeddie22 I thought P4 was decent but Persona 3 FES was my love for ages.
I have to say my hype has dropped significantly for this one. Since I can usually only stomach one major JRPG a year(due to time constraints), and with FF15 looking incredible as of late, I may have to put this on the back burner for awhile. Just to many great games releasing August through November.
@DaveIsAnAceGamer To be honest I don't think I ever got far on persona 3,I started it years ago but had something going on in life at the time and just never went back..Will have to go back and restart it at some point
This was the game that prompted me to return to the Sony home console environment. I simply couldn't miss out on this.
The new gameplay looks wonderful but really hoping for an HD source soon, the 320p video was excruciating with such a good looking game! But yes, the hype is definitely still sky-high for me. Up there with NMS, The Last Guardian and FFXV for me.
