Rumor: Persona 6 Said to Be Announced at TGA 2024, Expected to Release in Summer 2025

It’s a fair assumption that Atlus is working on a new installment in the Persona series, especially after the resounding success of the Persona 5, which has sold over 10 million copies. While the game itself hasn’t been officially announced, recent rumors suggest that the long wait for a potential Persona 6 reveal might soon be over.

The latest rumor comes from X/Twitter user P0wyful, who hinted that Persona 6 will make its debut at the Tokyo Game Show 2024, taking place from September 26-29 The Game Awards 2024 which is set for December 12, 2024. P0wyful also suggested that the game could release as early as summer 2025, possibly in July, with three years of post-launch support already planned, including multiple DLC expansions.

P0wyful also mentioned that Persona 6 will be available on most current-generation consoles, though it’s unclear if it will arrive on Nintendo’s long-rumored Switch 2 console.

Report also claims that Persona 6 will explore a “duality” theme, featuring two protagonists—Kuro and Shiro, a male and a female—both students at an art school. The narrative will revolve around their experiences, and the duality concept will play a central role in the story.

This installment will also introduce a semi-open-world structure, providing players with more freedom to explore and interact with the game’s environment. Additionally, reports suggest that the social link system will expand significantly, providing deeper decision-making options.

Furthermore, the main color associated with Persona 6 is reported to be green, following the trend set by previous games—Persona 3 was blue, Persona 4 was yellow, and Persona 5 was red.

It’s important to take all this information with a grain of salt, as none of it has been officially confirmed. However, we’re reporting on this because a well-known leaker, formerly known as Midori, corroborated P0wyful’s claims, stating, “A ton of correct information in this thread.” With both leakers pointing to a Tokyo Game Show 2024 reveal, this adds more credibility to the rumors.

Update: Leaker meant TGA as in The Game Awards and not Tokyo Game Show. Article has been amended to include this clarification and apologies for the confusion.

MEANT TO SAY TGA GANG I’M SORRY
