Following the successful launch of Persona 3 Reload last year, we began to hear rumours that SEGA/ATLUS was working on a similar remake for Persona 4. Further evidence popped up in March when the domain name P4RE.JP was registered. Now, the game looks set to be announced at the upcoming Xbox Games Showcase.
Back on the 20th of March, Twitter user ScrambledFaz discovered a registration for the domain name P4RE.JP, indicating that the rumoured Persona 4 remake could be gearing up for a possible announcement. Just last week, the story got juicier, as two voice actors from the original game confirmed that they have ‘no involvement' in the yet-to-be-announced remake.
In another update to this ongoing story, MP1st, the site that leaked The Elder Scrolls Oblivion Remastered earlier this year, reported that the game is set to be announced during the Xbox Games Showcase this week. While Xbox has a marketing deal in place for the game, it will not be an exclusive, so it should hit Xbox, PC and PS5 simultaneously.
In the many years since the initial launch of Persona 5, ATLUS/SEGA have released a ton of different titles and spin-offs, including Persona 5 Royal; Persona 3 Reload; Persona 4 Golden remaster; P5 Strikers; Tactica and Dancing in Starlight – to name a few.
Assuming they maintain their previous release strategies, then the rumoured Persona 4 remake should release around September-October, or in early 2026 (before March).
