The announcement comes in the wake of the launch of Persona 5 Tactica which, although it clearly did not cause a sensation in the charts around the world, will still have contributed to crossing this symbolic milestone of 10 million games sold. The foundations were laid by Persona 5, which alone brought 3.2 million sales on PS3 and PS4, before adding another layer with Persona 5 Dancing in Starlight, Persona 5 Royal, Persona 5 Strikers and Persona 5 Tactica . A family that’s a little too large for some people’s tastes, knowing that Atlus has given us a fighting game variation this time.
Persona 5 although it has been exploited in all directions, we would nevertheless be surprised to see the announcement of Persona 6 soon, Atlus has every interest in not overshadowing Metaphor: ReFantazio, the new license from its sacred trio (Katsura Hashino, Shigenori Soejima, Shoji Meguro) which will be released all over the world next fall.
The news around Persona, also marked by the upcoming release of Persona 3 Reload, was well worth the production of a new advertisement with actors Haruna Kawaguchi and Jun Shison, ambassadors of the franchise.
