The localization process also lasted almost a year, pushing the English language version into 2017.
What really sellsPersona 5is its main cast.
Ryuji was mostly unchanged, and Haru’s hair only went through some slight revisions.
It’s probably for the best that this design was scrapped, as itstrongly resembles Yosuke fromPersona 4.
In Joker’s case, it involved gelling his hair back and popping his collar.
Persona 5: Ann’s Catwoman Style
Ann’s feline style was apparent from the beginning.
It was also missing the chest window from her final design.
Ann also wielded a crossbow at this point in development, rather than a whip.
Morgana would also have the ability to transform into anything, not just a bus.
The final design gave Yusuke short dark blue hair, as blue became his central color theme.
She was also shown in more activewear, as she would carry her computer gear from place to place.
This was altered into making someone who was more stylish and charismatic.
The only problem with this new design is that it made him stand out too much.
