As the title says.

Sucks but that's ok my wallet is happy as the month before I already have Yakuza 0, Kingdom Hearts 2.8, and Gravity Rush 2 waiting for me.

Thanks Hiku for the bit of extra good info below :)

Some good news though.

"To compensate for the later release date, Atlus will include Japanese audio alongside the international release. It will be available as free downloadable content, according to a post on the PlayStation Blog. The English-language version was originally going to launch without Japanese vocal options, so this alteration should appease some otherwise disappointed fans. Atlus is also giving away a free Persona 5 PS4 theme for the next 24 hours as a bonus."

Also Free PSN Theme for the next 24 Hours only: https://store.playstation.com/#!/en-us/games/avatars/persona-5-ryuji-sakamoto-special-theme-avatar-set/cid=UP2611-CUSA05877_00-THEMEBUNDLE00002

That's fantastic news to me!
Although I had faith in the English voice cast from what I heard so far, I already know I love the Japanese cast. Jun Fukuyama (Lelouch) is one of my all time favorites.

I hate Atlus. Almost Konami-post-Kojima-firing level of hate. And the worst theme available in Japan (Ryuji? Seriously?) is not at all a gift good enough to ease this feeling. The Japanese voices announcement is just a poor excuse, nothing to do with the delay. Why did they even make a stream for that?

Damn, Atlus. Get your shit together. Persona 5 has been a development shit show, and now they can't even get the localization out in time. This is one of the worst development cycles I've seen past the extreme examples of decade long delays and development restarts.

Seems this is the generation of delays;) but if it needs time it's o.k., but i'm a little suprised that nowadays this times of localization are not shorter
