We’re entering that time of year where most developer and publishers in the industry beginning lining up announcements for upcoming games, and it seems Atlus has something waiting in the wings as well. Recent leaks have claimed that a number of Persona titles are currently in the works and ready to be revealed, and it seems at least one of them could be announced imminently.
Evidence of that has seemingly emerged courtesy of the upcoming Anime Expo, which is set for early next month and will see Atlus participating with a couple of special panels- and as spotted by Persona Central, the descriptions for some of those panels on the official Anime Expo website seems to suggest that the company will be making some announcements before the event takes place.
One panel’s description reads, “Join ATLUS West and be the first to know about all the exciting happenings! By the time you’re reading this, the cat is out of the bag…” The description could potentially be indicating a reveal that will have been made by the time this panel happens.
Another panel’s description also seems to be pointing at “exciting” things in the near future for the Japanese developer. It reads, “Get ready for an evening of excitement with ATLUS West as we bring you our latest and greatest! Head over to the mobile app for updated details on panel topics and our special guests.”
Recent leaks have claimed that a Persona 3 remake is in development, and that could be announced at the Xbox Games Showcase on June 11. Purported early development footage of the remake was also leaked earlier this year.
Meanwhile, it’s also been claimed that in addition to a Persona 3 remake, Atlus is also working on Persona 6, which is allegedly targeting late 2024 launch, as well as a new Persona 5 spinoff. Whether or not any of these gets officially announced in the coming days remains to be seen.
