Iam8bit has announced that they?re adding the soundtracks of Persona 3 Portable and Persona 4 Golden to their catalog of vinyl albums. They will be available for preorder on December 14 at 9am PST.


If you?re already deeply invested in owning the series? soundtracks pressed in vinyl, your soul will feel incomplete without these two. Both the Persona 3 Portable and Persona 4 Golden albums appear to be supplemental single LP albums, containing only music unique to their versions of the game. The bulk of the tunes are already on the Persona 3 and Persona 4 vinyl releases, both of which weighed in on four discs.




With that in mind, if you?re looking for the most enduring songs from the two games, you?d probably be better off with the vanilla versions. Persona 4 Golden, for example, doesn?t include Heartbeat, Heartbreak, a song that has been playing on a loop inside my skull for about a decade.


Unfortunately, it doesn?t look like these two albums are going to fit in the Persona 25th Anniversary Slipcase. They will have to sit cold and alone beyond the embracing walls of the rest of the collection. On the positive, their covers are done by Drew Wise, a longtime contributor with Iam8bit and the artist who did all the 25th Anniversary covers. The Persona 3 Portable cover is even a mirror of the vanilla Persona 3 cover, but features the version?s exclusive female protagonist instead.


Both the Persona 3 Portable and Persona 4 Golden vinyl will be up for preorder on December 14, 2023 at 9am PST. Both albums will run you $31.99 American greenbacks.
