Persona 6 is the latest installment in the popular JRPG series from Atlus. The release is probably not far off.
Persona 6: Insiders speculate about a possible release
In 2016, Persona 5 was the last main installment of the series of the same name to be released. That was almost a decade ago, and it’s not surprising that fans are wondering when Persona 6 will finally be playable.
- There is still no specific release date for Persona 6 (as of October 2024). The project, likely codenamed XRD768 (after Insider Midori), is still a ways off.
- There are rumors from another insider named p0wyful regarding the release date. According to this person, Persona 6 will be released in the summer of 2025.
- According to p0wyful, the official announcement by Atlus is to take place at the Game Awards on December 12, 2024 in Los Angeles. If this information is correct, a trailer or the first graphics and screenshots of the game, along with more information, can probably be expected.
- It is also supposed to be a global release for all current platforms. This probably means the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series S/X, the Nintendo Switch and also the PC.
- This release schedule would be in line with Atlus’ current release strategy. Persona 3 Reload, for example, was announced in June 2023 and released on February 2, 2024. That’s a period of about eight months.
- If a release period after the announcement is targeted instead, as with Metaphor: ReFantazio, Persona 6 could not be released until spring 2026. It took about 16 months from the announcement to the release of Metaphor: ReFantazio.
Persona 6: Infos zum Spiel
Information about Persona 6 is still scarce. Nevertheless, there are some rumors about the possible content of the successor to Persona 5.
- All Persona parts are assigned a specific color that relates to the themes of the game. In Persona 5, for example, the color red represents desire. Persona 6 is said to have the color green, which can stand for hope, rebirth or fortune.
- Since Persona 3, it could be a game in the series with a female and male protagonist again. That hasn’t happened in a long time.
- The Social Links are to receive a major update. It should also be possible to customize both characters more individually.
- Furthermore, support is to continue for about three years after release with additional content and DLCs.
- Please note: This information has not been confirmed and should therefore be treated with caution. We will keep you updated when official information is available.
