'Persona 5' news update: Maid Café mechanic announced; at least 20 GB of hard drive memory required on PS4
Upcoming role-playing video game "Persona 5" will soon be released in Japan. Fans are already excited to play the game. And to bring the hype up even more, updates have been released ahead of time. The latest news to emerge is one about the inclusion of a maid café into the game plot.
PlayStation Lifestyle reported that developer Atlus shared the maid café mechanic through a recently released video dubbed as the Café Training gameplay.
The video showed the protagonist inside a maid café, a subcategory of cosplay restaurants found predominantly in Japan. As hinted by its name, made cafés have waitresses dressed as maids. The maid café mechanic in-game provides stat boosts just like the tea houses found in the third installment of the game title.
Aside from the maid café, another video teased the protagonist managing a different café himself. It seems like he will be involved in that kind of job or field in the game.
"Persona 5" will arrive in Japan this coming September. Western fans will have to wait, though, as the game will not come out until next year. The exact Western release has no confirmed date as of writing, so those who are interested in picking up the game should watch out for updates regarding the possible opening of pre-orders and the actual release date.
Additionally, a report cited that the fifth installment of the game franchise will need quite a large amount of memory space. A Twitter user with the handle @dolly_silent revealed that the much-awaited "Persona 5" game will require at least 20 GB of hard drive memory from PlayStation 4 (PS4) gaming consoles. Having this much space on hand will allow the game to successfully install via its disc version.
On the other hand, the informant said that gamers who will be playing with the PlayStation 3 console will need to have at least 4.6 GB of HDD on their consoles. Fortunately, it's a much lower requirement compared to the one needed in the PS4.
