The diversity of what iam8bit already has to offer won’t disappoint, and this time Persona 5 is the latest in receiving the glorious vinyl treatment.
In a new video released by said company, co-owners Amanda White and Jon Gibson team up to get into the nitty-gritty of the creative process behind the packaging. Not only do the producers need to know the franchise inside and out, they had to get into the minds of fans as well.
