Persona 3 Portable, an enchanced remake of Persona 3 for the Playstation Portable, has been announced by Atlus for release in Japan on November 1, 2009; a Western release of the game has not yet been announced. The announcement in Famitsu revealed that the player will have the option to play as a female character. This selection will alter some aspects of the story: the first Persona gained by the Protagonist, Orpheus, will have a different appearance; Igor's assistant in the Velvet Room, Elizabeth, will be replaced with a male equivalent named Theodore. The gender choice will also alter some aspects of the Social Link stories. In addition to the new playable character, there will be five difficulty level to select from. The port will include only the original game's story (The Journey from Persona 3). However, there will be some changes made to the plot, regardless of character choice.
The game's revised battle system draws on elements added in Persona 3's successor, Persona 4. In combat, the player will be able to directly control every character, as opposed to utilizing the game's artificial intelligence. The ability to "Guard" during battles has been added, and allies will take fatal attacks for the Protagonist, preventing his or her death. Outside of Tartarus, instead of navigating the game world by directly controlling the Protagonist, the player will guide an on-screen cursor around an area, allowing interaction with characters and objects. The game includes the voice acting of the original game, although characters are not shown in the world, instead being represented by on-screen portraits. In addition, there is new music, composed by Shōji Meguro; some of the game's music will be different if the female protagonist is selected. There are currently two confirmed cameos from Persona 4 that can be seen in P3P; a younger version of Yukiko Amagi and Noriko Kashiwagi.
