Persona 4, released outside of Japan as Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 4, is a 2008 role-playing game for the PlayStation 2, and the fifth entry in the Persona series.

In the sleepy rural town of Inaba, a series of grisly murders shock the town. The protagonist is a high school student who transfers to the local Yasogami High School. Rumors abound of a mysterious television channel called the "Midnight Channel" which appears at midnight on rainy days, and shows the viewer their soulmate. The protagonist and his new acquaintances discover they can physically enter the television, in which an alternate world connected to the Midnight Channel exists. After exploring the bizarre world, the protagonists discover evidence indicating that the recent murders may be connected to the world within the TVs. They form the Investigation Team to explore the Midnight Channel, hoping to find the perpetrator and save any possible future victims.

A remaster of the game for the PlayStation Vita, titled Persona 4 Golden, was released in 2012, featuring new content.
