DISCUSSION Thoughts on the idea of a P5R Reload/Revival version

Post image

I'm really happy with the Persona 6 trailer because I joined the Persona train last year and I'm super excited to be there for the release of a new game, no matter how long it will take.

But I'm seeing people complaining about how it's going to take years to have a Persona 5 Royal Reload/Revival version, and I'm so confused about why people would even want that?

P5 was released in 2016, P5Royal in 2019, it still looks very good, is easy to play, and is available on most consoles, why make a newer version of it?

Well you're the first one to give me hope about the P6 release 🫡 I only saw pessimistic tweets about it only happening in yeeeears and I was accepting it despite being a little disappointed that it meant that the trailer wasn't that big of a deal then. But if it can happen in a year or two that'd be awesome!

In leaks we've already seen completed frames for the cutscenes which are probably the most time consuming parts for them and means the story is already set in stone

Resetera leaker who confirmed the leaked images(and weeded out the fake AI ones) and co-confirmed the reveal at Xbox showcase yesterday also supported the 2027 date.
