Jawad Ashraf, from the European PlayStation Store Team, confirmed to Kotaku that Persona 4 Arena had been delisted across Europe on PlayStation 3 as of May 22nd, 2014. Although unsubstantiated, the delisting is likely related to Zen United’s PlayStation-specific publishing rights in the territory. The Xbox 360 versions, also published in Australia and Europe by Zen United, remain available to download as of this writing.
