Persona 4 Arena, the fighting spin-off of the Persona series, is landing on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 on August 7 in North America — that's a little later than Japan, which is receiving the game on July 26.

Publisher Atlus has confirmed that the US release will include both the original Japanese voice work and a new English audio track, easily toggled in the settings.

"While it remains a feature we are unable to add in every one of our releases due to any number of factors, we are incredibly excited to be able to offer our fans the frequently requested dual language option in as highly anticipated a title as Persona 4 Arena," said Tim Pivnicny, VP of sales and marketing at Atlus.

The new E3 trailer reveals the game's basic plot, demonstrates gameplay, and introduces a few members of its roster.

Arc System Works, of Guilty Gear and BlazBlue fame, developed the title.
