This year’s Summer Game Fest turned out to be a good one for fans of Japanese RPGs. First, the conclusion of the Final Fantasy VII remake trilogy was announced at SGF Live, and now we have the long-awaited return of the Persona series.
Atlus confirmed Persona 6 exists with a brief teaser, but aside from implying a very dark tone, that’s about all the video revealed. There’s no release date or window, though the game will be coming to the PS5, Xbox, and PC whenever it does launch. Atlus describes the game as “a bold, new standalone story blending heartfelt daily life and new characters with pulse-pounding, supernatural adventure,” which could also describe most Persona titles.
In addition to Persona 6, Atlus also announced that Persona 4 Revival is launching on February 18th.
