A popular leaker for Persona 6, known as MbKKssTBhz5 on Twitter or Midori, has provided another update on the rumored JRPG and shared details about Atlus' current game focus. Despite years of rumors, there has been limited concrete evidence to prove the existence of Persona 6. However, Midori, who has a track record of accurate statements and close ties to Atlus, has been consistently communicative with fans in recent months.
Midori accurately leaked information about Atlus games in the past, including the confirmation of a Persona 3 remake and a Persona 5 tactical RPG spin-off before their official announcements. Thanks to her connections at Atlus, she has been sharing updates on Persona 6 and revealing what else the company is currently working on.
Midori confirmed that Atlus is not currently working on another remake to the same degree as Persona 3 Reload, set to be released in 2024. However, she revealed that there are currently four Persona games in the works, with the highest priority being the highly anticipated Persona 6. In addition to the Persona 3 remake and Persona 6, Atlus is also busy with Persona 5: The Phantom X, which was announced earlier this year, as well as the project Persona Asa.
Midori's previous leak about Persona Asa indicated that it will be a crossover featuring characters from all five numbered games. The expected release window for this game is the third quarter of 2024. She also revealed some interesting news about Atlus' plans, mentioning that they had been working on a Persona fighting game for a considerable period of time. However, she clarified that the development of this game had been on and off due to the partner studio's busy schedule and other commitments.
Midori has revealed insider information suggesting that Persona 6 is scheduled to be released within the upcoming three years, and Atlus intends to make an official announcement in 2024. Additionally, there are rumors circulating about the potential announcement of the spin-off game, "Asa," within the same timeframe.
