Originally a spinoff series from theShin Megami Tenseiseries, Persona has arguably become the more popular and known name among gamers. This series set itself apart by combining the monster-catching elements of thebest Pokémon gameswith a deep and satisfying turn-based combat system. But the real kicker is the engrossing story and lovable characters you spend so many hours with. Now that we’re several years out fromPersona 5,and even from theRoyaledition, everyone is looking toward the next entry in one of thebest JRPGseries out there. Let’s level up our Social Links and share all the information we have aboutPersona 6.
Release date speculation
Atlus and Sega haven’t given any indication on whenPersona 6could be released. Some rumors and leaks suggest it could be within the next two years, but there’s no way to be sure. The only thing we have regardingPersona 6isan interviewforPersona 3: Dancing in Moonlightwhere series producer Kazuhisa Wada stated: “We are working on mid-to-long term plans, including new numbered entries, so that fans can constantly enjoy the Persona series starting next year.”
The Persona series used to be exclusive to PlayStation, but new entries have all come to most every platform, and we expect that to continue withPersona 6. There’s a chance it might be a timed exclusive for PlayStation, but it seems safe to say Atlus will bring it to every platform eventually.
Sorry, but there’s no footage or even concept art ofPersona 6in the wild.
NewPersonagames will make some changes to the formula, but it shouldn’t be drastically different thanPersona 5.You can expect turn-based battles, demon negotiation and fusing, some calendar system, and a host of characters to bond with.
It will be a long time beforePersona 6preorders show up. Check back here for when more information shows up, and we’ll keep you up to date.
