Overview

Persona 4: Dancing All Night is a 2015 rhythm video game developed by P-Studio and published by Atlus for the PlayStation Vita. The game is a spin-off of Persona 4 (2008), which is part of the Persona anthology of Megami Tensei games. The game received generally positive reviews from critics. A port for the PlayStation 4 was included with the Endless Night Collection of Persona 3: Dancing in Moonlight and Persona 5: Dancing in Starlight.

Persona 4: Dancing All Night is a rhythm game in which the characters of Persona 4 dance to music from the Persona series, including original and rearranged songs. The game is split into two main modes; Story, where players experience the game's story which is split up by various music stages, and Free Dance, in which players can pick any song they have unlocked and perform at various difficulties, unlocking more songs by clearing each stage.

The story is framed as a tale that Margaret is telling to an unseen visitor in the Velvet Room about her guest, Yu Narukami.

Persona 4: Dancing All Night was announced alongside Persona 5 and Persona Q: Shadow of the Labyrinth during an Atlus event in Japan on November 24, 2013. The game was being primarily developed by Dingo Inc., noted for their work on the Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA series. Later in 2014, due to quality concerns Atlus's P-Studio team took over main development, with Dingo being retained as a supporting developer. A North American release was later announced for 2015. During Tokyo Game Show 2014, it was announced that the Japanese version would also be released in 2015, when it was previously announced to be released in Fall 2014.

The Japanese video game magazine Famitsu gave the game a review score of 33 out of 40, consisting of the sub-scores 8, 8, 8, and 9. Heath Hindman of PlayStation LifeStyle gave the game 8 out of 10, praising the soundtrack and unique feel of the game. The game sold 94,036 physical retail copies within its debut week of release within Japan, placing second within the Japanese software sales charts for that particular week. IGN awarded it 8.4 out of 10, saying "Persona 4: Dancing All Night highlights the wonderful music from the Persona series while building a solid story".
