Persona

Atlus's modern-fantasy RPGs merge dungeon crawling with extensive social sim elements. Because saving the world isn't enough; you've gotta survive high school too. The latest installment, Persona 3 Reload, launched in February 2024.

Persona 5 Scramble: The Phantom Strikers now has a Japanese release date and a brand new trailer. The musou take on Persona drops in Japan on February 20, 2020, for PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch. It also looks slick as heck, as you might expect from a Persona 5 spin-off.

Persona 5 is being turned into a stage play. Called Persona 5: The Stage (clever!), it will run this December in Tokyo and Osaka with actor Hiroki Ino starring. The full cast will be announced at a later date.

The good news: “Persona 5 R” is a real thing, presumably an enhanced version of the popular PS4 game (like Persona 4 Golden). The bad news: There’s no indication here that it’s coming to Switch. Yet. Developer Atlus says more news is coming in March.
