The reveal is reportedly at the Xbox Games Showcase on June 11th, with Xbox and PlayStation as its platforms. They also claim it’s a full remake but not “definitive” (which could mean some cut content). Other rumored titles like Persona 5 T and Persona 6 are also allegedly being announced this year.

Insider Gaming’s Tom Henderson verified separately that the Persona 3 remake is in the works but “hasn’t been able to pinpoint when the game will be revealed.” Much of this information lines up with what other insiders like NateTheHate have claimed, and Atlus itself has also hyped “exciting happenings” for July 3rd at Anime Expo 2023 (even teasing that, “By the time you’re reading this, the cat is out of the bag”).

Time will tell, but a domain reportedly linked to the remake has seen some activity lately. Stay tuned in the meantime for more details.

English:

The title of the remake is “Persona 3 Reload.” It could likely release this winter (possibly November).

It will be announced on June 11, at the Xbox Games Showcase.

This winter = before the end of 2023
It will be released on platforms such as Xbox and PlayStation.
It is a full remake (but it isn’t definitive).

P5T and P6 will be announced this year too.

It’s been previously claimed that the developer is set to announce a remake of Persona 3 at the Xbox Games Showcase on June 11, while recently, it was claimed that a Persona 5 spinoff – or P5T – will also be announced soon. A domain for the latter has also been registered and updated, following similar pre-announcement trends for previous Persona games likes Persona Q2, Persona 5 Royal, and more.

Now, it seems the same has happened for the Persona 3 remake. As reported by Persona Central, the domain p3re.jp, which was registered by Atlus in March, saw an updated earlier today. The domain has been moved from Onamae to Amazon nameservers, with the latter typically having served as the company’s nameservers in the past.

Earlier this year, early internal development footage of the Persona 3 remake was spotted in a leak. Meanwhile, Atlus also recently seemed to tease “exciting” announcements that are set to happen before the developer’s panels at Anime Expo early next month.

Whether both aforementioned Persona titles are set to be announced in the coming days remains to be seen. Stay tuned for more updates.

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 a 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.

For starters, a new Persona 5 spinoff allegedly titled Persona 5 T will be unveiled soon, though what exactly that “T” stands for is unknown. Not too long ago the p5t.jp domain name was registered by Atlus, and more recently, the domain was updated and was moved to the company’s owned nameservers.

As Persona Central reports, this isn’t the first time something like this has happened for the franchise. Similar domain registrations were spotted prior to official announcements, for previous titles like Persona Q2, Persona 5 Royal, and more, and after similar updates that saw them being moved to Atlus’ owned nameservers, all of those games were announced within two weeks.

Interestingly enough, prominent Persona dataminer and leaker @regularpanties has also taken to Twitter to tease other brief details on the title, with is allegedly not going to be a fighting game similar to Persona 4 Arena (which is what many had speculated), or even the Goro Akechi-starring spinoff that was rumoured to be in development a while back.

The leaker also goes on to say that that Persona 5 T and the rumoured remake of Persona 3 are both set to be announced “soon”, though there isn’t much clarity on exactly how soon that will be, or if the two will even be announced together. Leaks have claimed that the Persona 3 remake will be announced at the Xbox Games Showcase on June 11, though Summer Game Fest on June 8 could also be an appropriate setting for one of these announcements, if they are indeed going to be made soon.

Finally, the leaker claims that Atlus is going to continue to release its titles as multiplatform games, which is an initiative the company has adopted with many of its recent releases. Whether that applies to all upcoming Persona games or just some of them in particular remains to be seen. It has been claimed in recent reports that Persona 6 could possibly release as a PS5 exclusive, similar to past mainline instalments.

t is not a fighter

Speaking during his recent podcast, insider NateTheHate stated that a remake of Persona 3 is set to launch later this year, and that unlike Persona 6 – which is likely to be a PS5 exclusive when it allegedly launches late next year – it will be a multiplatform title. In fact, the remake is likely to be announced at the upcoming Xbox Games Showcase next month, with NateTheHate mentioning the rumours and later adding that though it probably won’t be unveiled at the imminent PlayStation Showcase, we will be seeing it “a little later this Summer”.

Interestingly, the insider has also claimed that a Persona 5 spinoff is also in development, and that it’s targeting a 2024 launch. Whether this is the Goro Akechi spinoff we’ve been hearing about since last year or something else entirely remains to be seen.

Earlier this year, it was claimed in leaks that both Persona 3 and Persona 6 were both quite far along in development, and that both games were expected to be revealed this Summer. Not long after that, early internal development footage of the Persona 3 remake also leaked.

The footage below allegedly originates from an internal reel that was showcased at Sega to exhibit in-development games in 2021, and also includes bits and pieces of footage from Sonic Frontiers, which is now out. Interestingly, the Sonic Frontiers footage shows the on-screen enemy using a different moveset from the one it has in the game.

What’s more, the potential domain of the alleged Persona 3 remake also seems to have been discovered- it’s p3re.jp, and it seems to be registered to the same domain provider as p5r.jp, which, of course, is the domain for Persona 5 Royal. Meanwhile, in its own reporting Gematsu has stated that though it cannot verify this recent leaked footage, it can corroborate that a Persona 3 remake has been in development at Atlus for “several years”.

As mentioned earlier, this isn’t the first we’ve heard of either of these two rumoured games. Leaks claimed earlier this year that Atlus was working on a full-fledged remake of Persona 3, and that it would be unveiled this Summer. Meanwhile, last year, it was reported that Sega was working on a “big budget” reboot of Jet Set Radio, potentially featuring live service elements.

As per ResetEra user Im A Hero Too – who has previously leaked information related to Persona and has been vetted by ResetEra moderators – both Persona 6 and a Persona 3 remake are in development at Atlus, with both allegedly “pretty far along” in development. In fact, it seems both games are targeting a Summer reveal, with the leaker also claiming that both games were supposed to have been revealed already, if Atlus hadn’t internally changed those plans.

Interestingly, this isn’t the first we’ve heard of a Persona 3 remake, with previous leaks also have claimed that the project is in the works. As per Im A Hero Too, the remake has “so many updates” that it may as well be “a new game for many”.

Meanwhile, where Persona 6 is concerned, the leaker says that, in spite of recent multiplatform Persona releases, it could still end up being a PlayStation exclusive (which has been claimed in previous leaks as well)- though it seems like there isn’t complete clarity on that particular front, so there’s no guarantees.

Of course, as is the case with any such leak, it’s best to take this with a grain of salt for now- though if Atlus does indeed planning on revealing the two games this Summer, it shouldn’t be long before more details emerged. Stay tuned for all of those updates.

Over on ResetEra, leaker lolilolailo has claimed that a Persona 3 remake is in development at Atlus, in addition to the aforementioned upcoming Persona 3 Portable port. The leaker has in the past accurately leaked Atlus releases, including the upcoming P4G and P3P ports.

As per them, the Persona 3 remake will be similar to Persona 5 in terms of both, its graphics and its quality-of-life features, while interestingly, it also seems like it will be making changes to content that many might not be happy about. Presumably, this refers to content from Persona 3 FES being left out.

In the past, lolilolailo has also said that the Persona 3 remake will also have a subtitle, and that the “R” in P3R actually stands for something.

Recently, Atlus said that it has several new announcements planned for 2023, but whether a Persona 3 remake ends up being one of them remains to be seen. Fans have certainly been vocal in their desire to see a Persona 3 remake- though of course, many will also be wondering how far away Persona 6 is.
