Key Takeaways
- According to a new rumor, Persona 6 may release in summer 2025 on all major platforms simultaneously.
- The game’s Social Links could include old and new elements.
- A Persona 6 reveal is speculated to take place at The Game Awards in December 2024.
Though Atlus has been tight-lipped about Persona 6 information, a social media source claimed that the release window for the Persona series’ next entry was narrowed to the summer of 2025. While a precise release date for Persona 6 remains elusive, the source also shared when the game’s first official reveal may happen.
Even though Persona 6 will not arrive in 2024, that has not stopped Atlus from having a busy year of releases. Atlus’ 2024 calendar kicked off with the launch of Persona 3 Reload in February, which brought the series’ beloved third entry to modern platforms for the first time. Persona 3 Reload released Episode Aigis: The Answer, a post-game expansion, in September. In June, fans were treated to Shin Megami Tensei 5: Vengeance, an enhanced, multi-platform port of the 2021 Switch game. In addition to giving fans a trip down memory lane, a new title called Metaphor: ReFantazio will go live on October 11.
While all rumors must be taken with a fine grain of salt, Twitter user P0wyful posted a thread that went into detail about what fans could expect from Persona 6. The thread began with Persona 6 having a tentative release window of Summer 2025 on all major platforms, and that post-launch DLC support for up to three years was likely. P0wyful also stated that Persona 6 was in the localization stages and that the game would use green as its main color. Persona 6‘s main theme would also involve duality or black-and-white perspectives. Although Atlus will be at the 2024 Tokyo Game Show, P0wyful said that the reveal of Persona 6 would not take place there. The thread stated that the 2024 edition of The Game Awards in December would be the venue that Sega and Atlus could use to give players a first look at Persona 6.
