Atlus reveals Persona 5 R

In a recently-released 30-second video via its YouTube channel, Atlus announced Persona 5 R coming to a PlayStation console. In this “first report,” the video of the popular franchise starts with a PlayStation logo, which is followed by a video of buildings of Shibuya District in Tokyo with ads and messages written on them, including “New Projects” and “Take Your Heart”, followed by “2019.3.” At the end of the teaser, there is a link for users to go to https://p5r.jp. The site just shows the same video with a few links. Will P5R be an enhanced version of Persona 5 or a title of a different genre? For whatever you may be wondering, more info will be revealed by Atlus. “Please wait for the second report in March 2019,” says a post titled A new notice from the Kaito Group? on the franchise’s website.

After the rumors that Persona 5 R was going to become a Nintendo Switch exclusive with the release of this video, there is still a possibility of bringing the game not just to the PS4, mainly because of the revelation of Joker coming to Super Smash Bros. Ultimate as a downloadable character. Persona has been a franchise almost exclusive to PlayStation consoles. Only the Persona Q games have made their debut on the Nintendo 3DS.

Do you still hope to see the Persona franchise coming to Nintendo Switch?
