Persona 3 Reload looks to launching on Switch after all

During the Xbox Games Showcase, Persona 3 Reload and Persona 5 Tactica were both announced. A few days later we learned that both games would be multiplatform, with plans to release both games on PlayStation consoles, with Persona 5 Tactica also being confirmed for the Nintendo Switch. Now, it would seem that Persona 3 Reload will also be released for Switch. 

So far, Atlus has only confirmed that Persona 5 Tactica will be coming to Switch. Rumours have been claiming that Nintendo and Atlus may be holding off on announcing Persona 3 Reload for the Switch, saving the announcement for an unannounced Nintendo Direct. Now, it would seem that those rumours were right on the money.

Fans spotted an unlisted version of the Persona 3 Reload trailer on YouTube, which listed Nintendo Switch as one of the supported platforms in the video description. A couple of hours after this information hit the web, Atlus updated the video page to remove mention of the Switch.

This seems to indicate that Persona 3 Reload will be announced for the Switch during an upcoming Nintendo Direct. Something similar occurred last year, when Persona 5, Persona 4 Golden and Persona 3 Portable were announced for PC and PlayStation, with confirmation of the Switch release arriving a month later during a Nintendo Direct.

KitGuru Says: There is always the chance that this was an error and that Persona 3 Reload was cancelled for Switch, but that outcome seems unlikely. If a Nintendo Direct is announced for July, then I think we can safely assume Persona 3 Reload will be amongst the announced games.
