Persona 6 Job Listings Surface Amid Game Speculation

Atlus, creators of the acclaimed Persona RPG series, recently updated their recruitment page with new job listings, igniting speculation about the highly anticipated Persona 6.

Atlus Seeks Persona Producer Amid Persona 6 Speculation

Unannounced Persona Game and Project

As reported by Game*Spark, Atlus is actively recruiting a new producer for their Persona team. The "Producer (Persona Team)" listing seeks an experienced individual with a proven track record in AAA game development and IP management to oversee the franchise's production. Additional listings, not specifically designated for the Persona team, include roles for a 2D character designer, UI designer, and Scenario Planner.

This recruitment drive follows comments from game director Kazuhisa Wada hinting at future Persona entries in the company's mid-to-long-term plans. While there's no official Persona 6 announcement, these new job postings strongly suggest Atlus is preparing for the next major installment in this beloved RPG franchise.

It's been almost eight years since Persona 5's release. While fans have enjoyed numerous spin-offs, remakes, and ports in the interim, details about the next mainline entry remain scarce. Hints of Persona 6 have surfaced intermittently through rumors and teases.

Rumors circulating since 2019 suggested simultaneous development of Persona 6 alongside titles like P5 Tactica and P3R, fueling speculation about the project's commencement. With P3R achieving phenomenal success, selling over one million copies in its first week and becoming one of the fastest-selling games in the series' history, the franchise's momentum is undeniable. A 2025 or 2026 release window for Persona 6 has been speculated, although the timeline remains unconfirmed. An official announcement, however, seems increasingly likely.
