'Persona 5' release date news 2016: New video clip features maid cafe
One of the most anticipated video games to come out this year is Atlus' "Persona 5." The upcoming role-playing video game has been a favorite subject of numerous discussions online with regard to its development and release date. Just recently, the game developer has just released several footages of the game that will surely feed every fan's excitement of the upcoming fifth installment.
According to a report by TwinFinite, the current footage that was released by Atlus features the game's main protagonist along with another character visiting a maid café. This isn't the first time that the game developer has featured the main protagonist on a video clip hanging out together with his friends. A few weeks ago, he was also seen with Ryuji and Futuba watching a movie together.
In real life, the maid café is quite popular in Japan. It is considered as one of the most visited tourist attractions in the country. Inside the maid café, people can purchase things while maids are running around; however, the situation is different on the "Persona 5" video clip where everything appears to be calm.
Fans expect Atlus to release more of these footages before its scheduled release date on Sept. 15.

The new feature will also allow gamers to complete a quest to reform the shadows hanging inside the dungeon.
According to Attack of the Fanboy, pre-orders for "Persona 5" have increased and it took the top spot in Amazon Japan. Its closest competition, Square Enix's "Final Fantasy XV" will be released on Nov. 29.
"Persona 5" will hit the U.S. market on Feb. 14 for PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 3.
