Persona 4 Arena Ultimax known in Japan as Persona 4: The Ultimax Ultra Suplex Hold (ペルソナ4 ジ・アルティマックス ウルトラスープレックスホールド) is a fighting game developed by Arc System Works and Atlus, and published by Sega in Europe and Australia. Atlus publishes the game for the rest of the world. It is part of Atlus' long-running Persona series, which itself is part of the Shin Megami Tensei series and is the first such game to be published by Sega in any region. In Japan the home console version was released exclusively for the PlayStation 3.

At The Game Awards 2021, it was announced that the game would be coming to the PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, and Steam in 2022. The Steam version was then bundled with Persona 4 Golden, its prequel, on Steam on 9 December 2021.

Gameplay

The gameplay in Persona 4 Arena Ultimax is still that of a fighting game. However, substantial changes to characters and the system have been made from Persona 4 Arena.

The Episodes in Story Mode has a completion percentage which stops at 94% on Episode P4 to unlock Episode P3. Each Episode has a two-choice question in the final chapter before the fight with the final boss where both should be selected to unlock the True Ending at Episode P4 and achieve 100% completion for both episodes. Players do not need to replay all chapters in both episodes to get full completion, only select the final chapter and win the final battle.

The console version compared to the original P4U, has received many more changes. Such as new console exclusive characters, and all the themes being rearranged to their OST disc versions; by proxy, the original characters' themes from the first game are also the OST disc versions as well. There are also several new modes of play as well that were not available in the original Arena game, as well as extra tweaks to the AI in said modes.
