Persona 3: Dancing in Moonlight & Persona 5: Dancing in Starlight - Endless Night Collection


While the Western release of Persona 3:  Dancing in Moonlight and Persona 5:  Dancing in Starlight did not manage to get the Vita version of the Endless Night Collection, we did get the PS4 version.  It comes with both games, hardcover artbook packaging, two pieces of DLC and a digital copy of the PS4 version of Persona 4:  Dancing All Night, all for the same price as buying both games separately.

Packaging and Contents:


The collection comes in a metallic cardboard sleeve with a unique piece of cover art.


While the back shows screenshots for both games as well as the usual spiel.


There is a small instructions booklet as well as the code for the two pieces of DLC (two additional songs) and the digital copy of the PS4 version of Persona 4:  Dancing All Night.

The Games:


Sadly, unlike the Japanese version of the collection, we don't get separate cases for each game, rather both are in the "hardcover artbook packaging" which is frankly, not as good.  Refer to below for the reviews for each game in the collection:
- Persona 3:  Dancing in Moonlight
- Persona 4:  Dancing All Night
- Persona 5:  Dancing in Starlight

Artbook:


The other big draw of the collection (in addition to the PS4 version of Persona 4:  Dancing All Night, which is not available to purchase separately outside of this collection) is the hardcover artbook.  It's hardcover all right, and contains the same cover art as the cardboard sleeve.


The back just shows off the logos for both games.  This doubles up as the case that holds both discs to the games.  Unfortunately, the artbook is pretty disappointing as its short and only shows off the key artwork of each character (as seen in the game) and some game screenshots.

Below are some low quality samples.







Overall:


While the artbook and lack of separate game cases are disappointing, the fact remains that you're getting three games for the price of two.  It's an excellent deal and all three games are fantastic rhythm games filled with amazing music.  Endless Night Collection is definitely worth the price.
