Persona 4 Remake Reveal Rumored for Xbox Showcase 2025
The beloved JRPG Persona 4 may be getting a full remake, with reports stating it will be unveiled at the Xbox Games Showcase on June 8, 2025.
Both MP1st and Windows Central have cited trusted sources confirming this news. The game will reportedly launch on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.
Sources from mp1st stated, “A source familiar with the situation has confirmed to MP1st today that Persona 4 Remake will be revealed at the Xbox Games Showcase on June 8. It’s planned for release on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC, though we failed to get confirmation if there’s also a Switch 2 version releasing simultaneously.”
Built From the Ground Up, Just Like Persona 3 Reload
Following the successful release of Persona 3 Reload in early 2024, fans are expecting Atlus to take a similar approach with Persona 4. The Persona 3 remake came with upgraded graphics using Unreal Engine 4, improved mechanics, and modern quality-of-life features. Now, many believe Persona 4 Remake might even adopt Unreal Engine 5 to enhance visuals and gameplay.
This isn’t just about better resolution—it’s about refining gameplay elements that didn’t age well, introducing modern RPG features, and potentially reworking the battle system. Players are hopeful for more save points and smoother dungeon exploration, which was a frequent complaint in the original game.
Why the Xbox Partnership Matters
Atlus and Sega seem to be strengthening their partnership with Xbox, much like they did with Persona 3 Reload. Microsoft is expected to lead marketing efforts, especially in the West and Japan, to push Persona 4 Remake globally. However, there’s still no confirmation on whether it will arrive on Switch 2.
While Sega reportedly has dev kits for Switch 2, Atlus might still be working toward optimizing their games for the system. If so, fans may have to wait longer for a Nintendo release, but the delay could mean a better final product.
With JRPGs rising in popularity again thanks to titles like Baldur’s Gate 3 and Metaphor: ReFantazio on the horizon, Atlus is stepping up to meet demand—and a Persona 4 Remake could be the next big hit.
