Following up on our previous coverage of Persona 4 Arena support character Rise Kujikawa joining the fray as a proper fighter in the upcoming sequel Persona 4 Arena Ultimax, the latest issue of Famitsu provides a handful of new details on what to expect in terms of story beats and overall fighting style.

Rise’s story begins with her getting to work on making her comeback as an idol by attending lessons. When the red fog shows up Inaba one night, though, people start disappearing and Rise finds herself separated from her friends. Faced with recent danger, Rise awakens to a newfound resolve, and with her Persona Himiko in turn gaining a battle-ready form in the process. Her unique cheeky fighter title is written to literally be “Kanzen Hentai Super Idol.” Although it’s difficult to translate well because of its multifaceted nature that plays upon both her Shadow’s tendencies as well as her general growth as a character, it can humorously be translated literally to mean both “The Completely Metamorphosed Idol” and “The Completely Perverted Idol.”

In terms of combat, Rise utilizes a microphone as her weapon of choice, with her battle style described as “restrictive musical notes.” As such, her special attacks include things such as explosive musical notes, as well as an array of projectiles. In line with her previous support role, she can still analyze her opponents, which changes up her attacks in some manner and enables players to craft their own unique fighting styles when playing as her. Additionally, like every other character in the game, Rise also has her own one-hit KO move called “True Story,” in reference to the song she sings in Persona 4 The Animation and Persona 4 Golden, in which she alluringly sings to her opponent to take them out once and for all.

As with most of the cast, Rise also has a Shadow form that players can choose to play. It once again takes shape as her idol self, Risette, although the reasoning behind its reappearance has yet to be illuminated. Shadow Rise has unique lines and actions that she can perform during the game, such as bringing up the title card used to herald Rise’s dungeon in the original Persona 4 as a fighter introduction before combat commences.

The Famitsu article also shares brief details on how story mode will work this time around. Rather than have paths dedicated to every character that appears in the game, the storyline will be split into two branches, “Episode P3” and “Episode P4,” depicting plot developments from the perspectives of each game’s respective cast members.

Finally, here’s a look at the Golden Arena Mode, a new battle tournament mode that incorporates RPG elements like levels, skills, customization, and Social Links.

Persona 4 Arena Ultimax will launch for PlayStation 3 in Japan on August 28, with a North American release for both PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 due out this summer.
