ATLUS has just announced that Persona Q: Shadow of the Labyrinth is releasing for the Nintendo 3DS on November 25, 2014, deftly avoiding the October rush.
Persona Q is a 3DS exclusive that's being co-created by the team behind the Etrian Odyssey series, and will be very familiar to fans of that popular RPG series. Much the same, it will be a first-person dungeon crawler that combines the casts of both Persona 3 and Persona 4.
