Atlus has the inevitable Persona 6 pencilled in for 2025. That's according to @MbKKssTBhz5 on Twitter, who has a particularly good track record when it comes to leaking Atlus' plans. They also state that 2024 belongs to Metaphor: ReFantazio — the fantastical RPG that was announced back in June. Apparently, it'll be accompanied by a project currently known as 'Asa', which is believed to be some kind of Persona party title that crosses over characters from throughout the series.
The schedule certainly makes sense on paper — with Persona 3 Reload out on the 2nd February — but it would mean that the long wait for the next main Persona game will continue for quite a while yet. It's easy to forget that the original Persona 5 released all the way back in 2016 — and it's been enhanced re-releases and spinoffs ever since.
Curiously, @MbKKssTBhz5 doesn't mention the long-rumoured Persona 5-based fighting game that's been featured in various leaks over the years. It'll be interesting to see if that resurfaces anytime soon.

That feeling when you realize you'll be well into your 40s by the time the next Persona game comes out. I'll still be playing the ***** out of it.
SMT in 2021, Soul Hackers in 2022, Persona 3 and Metaphor in 2024, and Persona 6 in 2025. Barring any potential delays, that seems like a good release cadence.
Well I’ll be waiting for the eventual rerelease of P6 so probably 2026 for me. I made it like 70 hours into P5 before burnout it and stopped, then bought P5R which I’ve yet to start. I’ll be surprised if I get to P5R by the time P6 comes out. So many games, so little time.
That sounds like a solid plan to me. Next year is already stacked with JRPGs. No need to rush out Persona 6. Let it cook. I have all the faith in the world it will be incredible.
I'm ok taking a Persona break. I'm excited and hopeful for Metaphor. We need more details on that.
@Jayslow oh hundy p! I'll be 39 and booking days off to play it lol
So time to play P5R again before PS6
Nine years is a long time, but we don’t know how actively Persona 6 is in development.
Metaphor: ReFantazio is the announce new game, which makes me question how inevitable any of Atlus actions are.
I will certainly play Persona 6 if and when it comes out.
Cool.more games is always welcome.word up son
Why bother buying Persona 6 when there is definitely a Royal/Golden Edition that costs another full game price? Atlus is one of the greediest companies ever seen.
@Jayslow
I will be 37. It is crazy I have been playing this series since Persona 2 on PSP.
Super excited for P6
Project Asa is only going to have P3, P4, and P5 like every other Persona crossover.
Atlus like to act like P1 and P2 don’t exist
With P3R and Metaphor next year I'm more than fine waiting for P6.
What's another year anyway.
I'll 50s when Persona 6 released, that's funny tooo~~~
I'm more looking forward to Metaphor. It looks like everything I've ever wanted in a new Atlus game.
