How many characters will we get?

[swordiris]

I was just wondering how many Characters you guys think will be added to the game before PS3 release.

Do yall think ore are coming?

Hopefully some P2 characters will happen. It'd be a great marketing strategy to hype up the PSP version of EP about to be coming soon too.

[Katsuragi]

From the sounds of the interviews, we're getting more characters for the console release

If this is true, I wonder who else is going to be added!! Cant wait!

[Krusiv]

We'll probably get a few more for console release either for free or as DLC later on.

Just give me Margaret and I'll be the happiest person in the world. It just doesn't make any sense for her not to have more roles in this game aside from the character selection dialogues.

Her voice actress is Ohara Sayaka. She's done voice acting for Erza Scarlet (Fairy Tail), Selvaria Bles (Valkyria Chronicles), Kashiwagi Noriko shares the same voice as Margaret (Persona 4), Milly Ashford (Code Geass) and much more. Atlus and Arc System Works would be foolish to not make use of such talent.

I'd really like to see Margaret and Elizabeth speak with one another. Am I the only one who loves this classy lady?

Spoiler!

At the ending of Persona 4: Animation Episode 25 we see a glimpse of the upcoming True Ending OVA that's going to be released in August. It shows Narukami and Margaret having their duel. The fighting game itself is released around the same time also.. Maybe she'll be a secret boss?

They originally implied that Labrys would be console exclusive, but since we already got her plus two more in the arcade release I'm not so certain we will get any console specific additions. Anything that would be added to consoles can just be patched into the arcade first.

I wouldn't be surprised to see more at some point, but I wouldn't hold my breath on Margaret. Not before other characters anyway, she's too similar to Elizabeth.

[SUPARNOVAX]

Hoping for a healthy 14 to 20 characters.

Marie, anyone?

[Zeik]

Do we even know if Marie is a Persona user?

[Ascension]

She has associations with the Velvet Room, so I'm going to guess she's a Persona user of some sort. I could see them putting her in the game as a way of helping to promote the Golden. Honestly though, I'd be pretty hype for just about anyone as additional characters.
