After months of rumors swirling in gaming circles, Atlus has made it official - Persona 4 is finally getting the remake treatment.
The announcement came packed with our first glimpse of Persona 4 Revival, coming to Xbox, PS5 and PC with day-one Game Pass availability. While the teaser was brief, the footage showed noticeable visual upgrades from the beloved original.
P-Studio director Kazuhisa Wada shared heartfelt reflections about the project:
It brings us immense joy to finally announce Persona 4 Revival. Rest assured, we'll be sharing more details soon.
This franchise holds deep personal meaning for me - from the original RPG to its anime adaptation, fighting game spinoffs, and rhythm title. We're pouring our hearts into this remake, creating something fresh that will delight both newcomers and longtime fans alike.
Beyond this project, we're also busy shaping the future of the Persona franchise. Our team is working tirelessly to exceed fan expectations worldwide, and development is progressing smoothly. More updates will follow.
We sincerely appreciate your ongoing support of the Persona series.
The remake rumors gained traction through domain registrations, industry whispers, and notably - original voice actors confirming they wouldn't be returning, fueling speculation in the fan community.
When we reviewed the original Persona 4, we awarded it a stellar 9/10, praising its refined dungeon crawling and social systems. While Persona 4 Golden remains the definitive modern version, Switch owners still can't experience this classic - a sore point among fans.
