Persona Listing Hints at Potential Persona 6

Atlus's recent job postings fuel Persona 6 anticipation. The company's recruitment page features a "Producer (Persona Team)" role, seeking an experienced AAA game developer to manage the franchise. This, along with other openings for 2D character designers, UI designers, and scenario planners, hints at a major project underway.

Game*Spark initially reported the news, adding weight to previous comments from director Kazuhisa Wada about future Persona entries. While no official Persona 6 announcement exists, the hiring spree strongly suggests Atlus is preparing for a significant new release.

The absence of a new mainline Persona game for almost eight years has left fans eager for news. Numerous spin-offs and remasters have kept the franchise alive, but the wait for a sequel to Persona 5 is considerable.

Rumors dating back to 2019 hinted at simultaneous development of Persona 6 alongside other titles like Persona 5 Tactica and Persona 3 Reload. The latter's impressive sales (one million copies in its first week) further bolster the franchise's momentum. Speculation points towards a potential 2025 or 2026 release, though an official announcement remains pending.
