Yeah, if Atlus refuses to release P5 on Switch and PC when there are a bunch or Joker appearances in various other games that are on both systems(and even a full spinoff in strikers), I wouldn't hold my breath for SMT V on PC. Just get it on Switch, lol.
I made the mistake of thinking P5 could make it on Switch, but at least I had a reason to with all the Joker cameos and Strikers being on Switch.
Idunn Demon character art. Looks like it captures some of that Pixie adorable factor and it's nice seeing more Norse mythology demons outside the biggies like Thor, Loki and Odin make an appearance
I kind of hope that Persona 6 won't be locked to the ps4 and ps5 both, and that it'll end up on the ps5, taking full advantage of the hardware's graphical powers.

@VoidofLight Considering Atlus is always supporting a previous gen system when it comes to big Persona releases and that the game likely started development as a PS4 game given it's supposedly been worked on for the last 2-3 years, it's probably going to be on both and then the re-release with extra content will probably be PS5-exclusive like Royal only being developed for PS4 and adding visual updates to support the PS4 Pro as well
@TheFrenchiestFry Ah. It'll be a shame, since that means probably no raytracing when it releases. However, it's not that big a deal since Persona 5 looked great for a game made for the ps3 in mind, so I have no doubt that 6 will look even better.

@VoidofLight This idea that cross-gen games are somehow inherently compromised by having to run on weaker hardware is largely a myth. The only major difference between PS4 and PS5 that could present a problem for games having to run on both are the storage mediums they use, and most games aren't going to have level design that REQUIRES an SSD to run well. Certainly not Persona games, which are still relegated to tiny, PS2-era level layouts for their games, something even Shin Megami Tensei V on the Switch is abandoning despite being exclusive to vastly weaker hardware.
Otherwise, developers can just scale the performance and visual output to the hardware. Outside of feeding into an elitist mentality that last-gen owners SHOULD miss out on new games, there's not really a reason for most games to go next-gen exclusive at this point. When they do, they'll be big-budget AAA games, and not technically piddly JRPGs like Atlus turns out.
tbh I'm not even expecting Persona 6 to take full advantage of the PS4's hardware, let alone the PS5's. They're not a Square-Enix or Bandai Namco.
Turns out they were just the key art from the Persona 20th Anniversary promotion and the pre-release advertisement for the Japanese release of Persona 4 from 2008.

Yeah, after looking through twitter a bit after the announcement, I found out that the posters were mainly just gacha, with you getting a set assortment with 1 or 2 random ones that change depending on what merch box you got. I still think Persona 6 has a likely chance of being announced relatively soonish, but the merch listings probably don't indicate anything.

SMTV age rating sometime this week got updated to 16+ on the UK eshop which matches the boxart (was 12+ since the eshop page was put up in the first place). Makes me think if there does end up being a Direct soon, Nintendo will give the game another big spotlight like they did at E3 and then eshop preorders go live straight after the Direct.
Metroid Dread and SMTV are definitely being promoted a lot more than Nintendo usually would for games like those.
16+ is typically the European age rating it gets, it's the equivalent to SMT/Persona being M-rated in North America
It's also probably going to be heavily pushed by Nintendo to an extent we haven't really seen an SMT game gain in terms of marketing publicity from them before in the lead up to release. It's already being spotlighted a ton in Europe given they're publishing it for Atlus there

I really get the feeling that SMT V is going to be one of the most popular entries in the series, now that more people are interested in the main series due to Persona.

Welp idk about y’all but Smtv is definitely getting promoted like all hell. At GameStop there is promo for upcoming games and smtv is one of them. This really surprised me considering how hard the marketing has been online I didn’t even think that’d they’d bother doing a lot of irl promo, I’m extremely happy tho cause not only does this mean that Nintendo is definitely pulling out all the stops to promote this game, it means that Nintendo see's this game as their new big exclusive jrpg of the year.
Happy 25th anniversary to the original "Megami Ibonroku Persona" for PlayStation, and by extension, the Persona series. Without it I would've never gotten into MegaTen or Atlus RPGs so I owe this series a lot since these games were and still are a big part of my enthusiasm for RPGs and gaming.
I hope tomorrow will bring news of one of the new projects, but I get the feeling that they're probably going to wait for their TGS booth to talk about it.
