If you’ve been waiting for news on the next big Persona game, there may finally be something to talk about , though you’ll want to keep the rumor tag handy for now.
Just ahead of the Summer Game Fest livestream, what appear to be leaked images of supposed Persona 6 character designs have surfaced online. And they didn’t stay up long. According to IGN, Sega is believed to be behind the swift copyright takedowns, which only adds fuel to the fire.
As detailed by Persona Central, the images reportedly come from an outsourced art team, and are said to have been verified by several well-known Persona leakers with strong track records. The leaked artwork allegedly shows a blond male character and a female character with black and red hair. There’s also a piece depicting a railway station, with a figure believed to be the protagonist standing nearby.
More recently, a ‘P6’ logo and additional concept art also leaked, and those too were met with copyright takedowns across social media.
It’s been a long wait for fans. The last major mainline entry, Persona 5, launched in 2016, with Persona 5 Royal arriving on the Switch in 2022. The Switch 2 received Persona 3 Reload last October, and a Persona 4 Revival is also reportedly in the works , meaning the franchise could be back in the spotlight very soon.
This latest wave of rumors follows a tease from Atlus’ 30th anniversary Persona website, which hinted at “the next chapter for the series.” Whether that chapter is Persona 6 or something else entirely remains to be seen, but the pieces are certainly starting to line up.
