Atlus's recent job postings hint at a new Persona game, fueling Persona 6 speculation. The company's recruitment page features a "Producer (Persona Team)" role, requiring AAA game and IP experience. This, alongside other openings for 2D character designers, UI designers, and scenario planners, suggests active development.
Game director Kazuhisa Wada previously hinted at future Persona entries. While no official Persona 6 announcement exists, the job listings strongly suggest Atlus is preparing a major new title.
It's been almost eight years since Persona 5. Numerous spin-offs and remakes have kept the franchise alive, but a new mainline entry remains highly anticipated. Rumors, dating back to 2019, suggested concurrent development with titles like Persona 5 Tactica and Persona 3 Reload. The latter's impressive sales (over one million copies in its first week) further bolster the franchise's momentum. A 2025 or 2026 release window has been speculated, though an official announcement is eagerly awaited.
