Not applicable here: P4U has a similar region locking than usual locked blu ray, as in: code that would prevent a device to play the said disc, if not of the same region.
And that's the primary objective for atlus: to prevent the game to be playable on a console that isn't of the same region, which means it shouldn't rely on the PSN whatsoever (which isn't a real region lock to begin with).

If you imply that it solely relies on the datacenter used for the PSN connection, that basically means you would just need an access to US PSN to play a US disc of P4U, regardless of the PS3, which is not the case.
