Atlus Seeks Persona Producer: Persona 6 on the Horizon?

New Producer Sought for Unnamed Persona Project

(c) Atlus As reported by Game*Spark, Atlus is actively recruiting a producer with AAA game and IP experience to manage and oversee Persona projects. While the job description doesn't explicitly mention Persona 6, it's coupled with other open positions, including 2D character designer, UI designer, and scenario planner, all hinting at a significant new project.

This recruitment drive follows comments from game director Kazuhisa Wada, who indicated the company's long-term plans include new Persona entries. Although Persona 6 remains unconfirmed, the job listings strongly suggest Atlus is actively preparing for a major new release in the popular RPG franchise.

With nearly eight years having passed since Persona 5's release, and numerous spin-offs and remasters in the interim, the anticipation for a new mainline entry is immense. Rumors, dating back to 2019, suggested concurrent development of Persona 6 alongside other titles like P5 Tactica and P3R. The phenomenal success of P3R, selling over one million copies in its first week, further underscores the franchise's strength and fuels speculation about a potential 2025 or 2026 release window for Persona 6. While no official date has been set, an announcement seems imminent.
