Persona 4: Dancing All Night

Story & overview

About the game

Persona 4: Dancing All Night is a story-driven music game of the cult hit RPG Persona 4, developed by ATLUS. Replacing the RPG elements are dance battles that challenge players' dexterity and accuracy, as they tap out re-mixes of fan-favorite themes and brand new music tracks. The storyline continues from after the events of Persona 4, when the teenage mega-idol, Rise Kujikawa, returns to the city to re-take her show biz career. During that time, a strange video appears on the internet and the unfortunate people who watched it have gone missing! Members of Kanamin Kitchen, Rise's junior idol group, have disappeared and it's up to the Investigation team to mount a rescue mission - only they discover the same monstrous Shadows from the Midnight Channel. To make matters even worse, their Persona abilities are rendered ineffective, and the Shadows in P4D can only be defeated by dance, so bust out powerful dance moves to save the day!

Roughly a month after the events of Persona 4 Golden, Rise Kujikawa has returned to her career in the idol industry and invites Yu Narukami and the rest of their friends to perform alongside her at an upcoming music event, the Love Meets Bonds Festival. When Yu and Naoto Shirogane join Rise at her dance studio, they are introduced to fellow idol Kanami Mashita and learn that Kanami's idol group has mysteriously gone missing. Chasing a chilling rumor about a video that appears on the festival's website at midnight, the group investigates and is suddenly pulled into the Midnight Stage, a strange realm unlike the TV world they once knew. There they encounter a mysterious entity brainwashing its victims, and discover that only the power of song and dance can free those caught in its grip.
