Valentine's Day just got less fantastic.

Many JRPG fans have marked February 14 on their calender with a giant heart. Not because it's Valentine's Day, but because it's when Persona 5 was set to launch. Unfortunately that's not the case any more.

We don't know if it's because millions of boyfriends, girlfriends, husbands and wives have sent harsh letters to Atlus, but the game has now been delayed until April 4. The Japanese studio does however have some very nice compensation for us, dual audio. It'll be included as DLC for logistical reasons, but every PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4 player gets two choose between English and Japanese audio after downloading it.

Those of you keeping a close eye on Persona 5 news might have seen this coming as there's been rumours of a delay, but it's still kind of disappointing. Still, we're getting dual audio. Does that make up for it?
