Megami Ibunroku Persona: Ikū no Tō-hen is a 2006 role-playing video game developed and published by Bbmf. It is a spin-off from Atlus's 1996 game Revelations: Persona, and part of the Persona series, itself a part of the larger Megami Tensei series. It was originally released for Japanese feature phones in December 2006 and was re-released by G-Mode as part of their G-Mode Archives+ line for Nintendo Switch and Windows in September 2023.
The game has the player fight demons in a turn-based combat system while exploring a dungeon in a first-person perspective. It is set during the events of the 1996 game, and follows its cast of Persona-users as they become stranded between worlds and try to return to their own. The developers designed Ikū no Tō-hen as a side story, and introduced new mechanics such as a randomly generated dungeon to make the game interesting for players who have already played Revelations: Persona. The game was well received for its mysterious atmosphere and the replay value brought by its randomly generated dungeon.
