Atlus has been busy preparing for the 25th anniversary of the acclaimed Persona series, though their plan was disrupted somewhat by the COVID-19 pandemic. We have already seen the re-release of Persona Arena Ultimax and Persona 5 Royal is com ing to multiple platforms including the Nintendo Switch later this month. Then in January 2023 we will see the release of Persona 4 Golden HD and Persona 3 Portable HD on Switch and other platforms. Persona Team director and producer, Kazuhisa Wada, shared a special message with fans at this weekend’s Persona Super Live P-Sound Wish 2022: Crossing Journeys event in Japan which you can read down below.
“Finally, P5R will be available for the whole world to play on the latest hardware, including PC! P5R is 3 years old now, and P5 is 6 years old, but we are very happy to be able to share the best gaming experience we can with you now. It’s a must-have title for all gamers!”
“It is also with great sadness that we must bring an end to the everlasting momentum of Persona‘s 25th anniversary. With the “Persona Super Live P-Sound Wish 2022: Crossing Journeys” live concert, we would like to conclude it. There are so many things I would like to tell you, but I deeply apologise for not being able to do so on this occasion. I would like to share them with you at the right time, so please look forward to more information about the Persona series in the future.”
