Following yesterday’s reports of Amazon cancelling Persona 5‘s Take Your Heart Premium edition and SteelBook edition orders, Atlus USA has issued a statement expressing its surprise at the move and debunking claims of “mass cancellations” by some outlets. Furthermore, the company has denied that any of the special editions contain “dangerous” items, which contradicts the email Amazon sent out to its customers.
Here’s Atlus’ statement in full:
This morning we were surprised to learn about Persona 5 “Take Your Heart” Premium Edition cancellations with Amazon. After waiting patiently during the day we received word, and can confirm to you what we’ve always known, that there’s nothing defective or “dangerous” about our product. While there have been cancellations, we understand that only a tiny number of Amazon sales have been affected. No “mass cancellations” of the premium and SteelBook editions have occurred. If your order has been cancelled, please contact the retailer for support.
Have any of our readers had their order cancelled? Let us know.
