Atlus were present at the Xbox Games Showcase and revealed the long-awaited Persona 4 Revival which doesn’t seem to be targeting Nintendo Switch 2 at present. Regardless, all eyes are on the future of the franchise which means Persona 6. In a message Persona Studio director Kazuhisa Wada says that the team is “actively preparing for the future development of the Persona series as a studio” and that they are “working hard to meet the expectations of fans around the world.”
“Hello, this is Wada from P-STUDIO.
We are very pleased to announce the release of Persona 4 Revival. We look forward to sharing even more information in due time.
Persona 4 has spawned numerous spin-off works, including TV anime, Persona 4 Arena, Persona 4 Arena Ultimax, and Persona 4: Dancing All Night, and is a special title that has been a part of Atlus for many years and holds a personal place in my heart. We are currently working on this project with all our passion and love. We are confident that this will be a fresh and surprising product for both newcomers and long-time fans, and we look forward to sharing it with you all.
Additionally, we are actively preparing for the future development of the Persona series as a studio. We are working hard to meet the expectations of fans around the world, and our work is progressing well. Please stay tuned for more updates.
We look forward to your continued support of the Persona series.”

Seems like they’ve announced this remake way too early based on the trailer, it looks to be very early on in development. But I guess the recent leaks forced their hand.
Not super excited tbh as it seems like a somewhat pointless remake imo, but I guess I’ll pick it up eventually if it ends up being any good.
RIGHT? That trailer not only showed absolutely nothing, but it looked ROUGH.
The remake looks rough and they also were supposed to be making Persona 2 both games. Also what happened to Persona Arena that was rumored too. Atlus hasn’t been the same in years just downhill. I want more anime adaptions I can trust old staff to supervise those like Devil Survivor The Animation, 2 Overclocked, Shin Megami Tensei 1-5 Anime, and Oersona 2 The Animation.
