Yeah, I'll be catching up on TGS when I wake up.
DAMMIT. I saw the article image and for a moment thought they finally announced an English port for P5 Strikers.
Lmao I love how the article picture is of Persona 5 Royal but the Atlus game that's getting showcased is Shin Megami Tensei III Nocturne HD
Don't go into this expecting anything in regards to Persona 5 Scramble's Western release. It's a Japanese game trade show so that obviously isn't of concern to them at this time. They'll probably be ready to talk about it either during the holidays when it's closer to SMT 3's release or during Persona's 25th Anniversary next year.

>the 4 only japanese xbox fans celebrate
I wish i was joking cause TGS has Sony as their main partner/sponsor but then seeing the very first presentation after their usual starting stuff is just xbox
A Persona 5 Scramble release date and Persona 4 port qould be smashing
@Kopite Definitely don't expect anything Scramble related to be announced here. It's a Japanese game trade show event and doesn't concern all territories
Also I wouldn't expect Persona ports anywhere else but PC for the time being since those games always hit PlayStation first in a manner similar to Yakuza. Especially given P5 was just announced for Sony's PS Plus collection on PS5.
@TechaNinja you think there are This many Japanese Xbox fans? I always thought the weekly Japanese sales chart was a single fan buying all the Xbox he could. Also their presentation was mainly on PS5. They probably have a lot to present on PS4, and other ps5/crossgen TBA which weren't announced in their presentation because they aren't exclusives.
It seems like there is a new stream every week lol
Before anyone gets their hopes up, we are not going to see anything about persona 6, SMT V, or Persona 5 scramble. Sega and Atlus already released what will be shown from them and there will be PSO 2, a lot of Puyo Puyo stuff, and we will see stuff about the nocturne remaster. Im hoping we'll see more Bravely Default 2 as well, it kind of dropped off the radar after the demo.
I'd love for Tecmo to stealth drop a Fatal Frame VI announcement but that won't happen :’{
Yes,I hope there will be some suprise fighting game reveal(ahem, KOF 15).
@Keyblade-Dan Tecmo doesn't own Fatal Frame anymore. It belongs to Nintendo unfortunately.
@Nepp67 I think they own 50% each I wish that would change because Nintendo have basically killed the series and I DESPISE them for it. It's one of the greatest horror IPs there is what a goddamn waste :’{
I saw Konami will have their presentation.
And i really hope Konami will talk about Dance Dance Revolution during TGS 2020 and Dance Dance Revolution A20+ should be ported to PS4 / PS5 / Switch as modern consoles still lack of Rhythm games by Japanese developers.
Brilliant.......... I will be out the house all day Thursday :-/
I’m hoping for xCloud news from the Microsoft Japan showing.
Got an android device lying around I could use to play some Xbox on the side.
And since FFXVI, I’m wondering what else SqaureEnix has to show.
Don’t forget, Xbox preorders in Japan are happening the day AFTER the TGS show. This could mean Microsoft might be showing something to do a last push for Xbox orders.
@TheFrenchiestFry a guy can dream
@rachetmarvel yessssssssssss
Insanity that Sony are not showing up.
