There’s really no reason you shouldn’t pick up Persona 4 Arena—it’s being published by Arc System Works, one of the best 2D fighting game developers in the business and it won EGM’s “Best Fighting Game” award for E3 2012. But if you needed another twist of the arm, Altus is sweetening the pot with a free pre-order bonus.

As announced in a press release today, Altus is issuing a free bonus music CD for everyone (in North America) who pre-orders Persona 4 Arena.

Several stage themes based on Shin Megami Tensei and Persona are featured on the disc, all based off game scores and music composed by Shoji Meguro, who also conducted the score for Catherine. There’s a sample clip at the bottom of this post just to give you a small preview of what you can expect.

Don’t forget, the pre-order bonus is in limited quantities, so hustle. Persona 4 Arena drops for PS3 and Xbox 360 on August 7th.
