Atlus's recent job postings hint at a new Persona game, fueling Persona 6 speculation. The company is actively recruiting for a Producer (Persona Team), along with other key roles including 2D character designer, UI designer, and Scenario Planner, as reported by Game*Spark.
This recruitment drive follows comments from director Kazuhisa Wada about Atlus's plans for future Persona entries. While no official Persona 6 announcement exists, these job listings strongly suggest active development.
The anticipation is high, given the nearly eight-year gap since Persona 5. Numerous spin-offs and remakes have kept the franchise alive, but fans eagerly await the next mainline installment. Rumors, dating back to 2019, suggested concurrent development with titles like P5 Tactica and P3R. The phenomenal success of P3R, selling over a million copies in its first week, further strengthens the case for a new major release. A 2025 or 2026 release window has been speculated, and an official announcement may be imminent.
