Following the Persona 5 import guide post for international pre-orders on Japanese editions of the game, it has been discovered that Amazon Japan now accepts international shipping for pre-orders placed on any edition of Persona 5.
Previously, international Persona 5 pre-orders were rejected, with the upcoming JRPG seemingly being only available via Amazon Japan domestically. Now, despite the product pages for the game still stating the following:
International Shipping: We’re sorry; this item can not be shipped outside Japan
…orders placed using an international address will be accepted.
Amazon Japan Persona 5 Product Pages
