Atlus, along with a Japanese marketing company, Ryu's Office, have just registered some new domains relating to their Persona franchise. Ryu's Office, who previously registered the official site for Atlus JP's upcoming game, Project Re: Fantasy, has claimed these following addresses:

P3D.jp (P4D is the official acronym for Persona 4: Dancing All Night. This could potentially mean a Persona 3-related spinoff?)
P5AG:jp (Something related to Persona 5)
P5D.jp (Persona 5 Dancing All Night?)
P5R.jp (Another Persona 5 name)
P5U.jp (P4U is Atlus' official shortening for Persona 4: Arena Ultimax. Likely this means Persona 5: Arena)
Persona-Dance.jp (More evidence towards another Persona Dancing game)
PQ2.jp (Persona Q 2 perhaps)

Persona 8, 9, and 10 were also registered, likely for future preservation's sake. While this may seem like huge speculation, Atlus is planning to host a Persona concert in Japan this upcoming August. In which the previous concert was where Persona 5's gameplay was revealed for the first time. These domains also follow up on interviews with Atlus developers, and the recent February survey that Atlus sent out, asking for fan input on potential Persona spinoffs planned for the future. The inclusion of multiple instances of Persona Dancing domains is also interesting, as the developer who created Persona 4: Dancing All Night is defunct, as of last month. For further confirmation, Atlus director Naota Hiraoka has mentioned before that there are Persona games already currently in development, as of Persona 5's Japanese release.

Eh? im talking about 10 years ago after shenmue 2 came out and DC died


And if you talking about what Jhon Hardin said then do remember that he is leaving Atlus this year so he wont be around when/ if any of the above games are made meaning that due to his lack of affiliation with Atlus his word has become nothing.

His word of a NO PC version of P5 is all that i will accept since he was with the company when p5 was released

John Hardin has already left the company, which is a shame, because he was pretty cool. Those press releases were always hilarious. William Chan is now SEGA+Atlus's new PR manager.

I loved Jhon Hardin too especially his persona and smt unboxings as well as the P5 cast interviews. I wonder if William Chan will be as funny and cool as Jhon was.

Just give us PC support dammit.

Of course, @Chary would report this .

On another note it seems pretty interesting, all the more reason to get to completing P4 and P5.

I don't care for Persona.

Just give me Shin Megami Tensei, baby! I need dat sci fi in my life!

P3D... Persona 3 on 3ds? I personally don't think the general tone of P3 going well with the Dancing all night concept, that being said, I don't know hot much the 3ds will last, so... Nothing more than speculation.

I almost want to play this to post spoilers all over the net just because of the way Atlus shit on youtubers.

Glad they aren't involved much with GuiltyGear and Blaz or I would drop those titles until Atlus decided to join us all in 2017 where people can film stuff.

Unlikely, we already got a portable version on the PSP, aptly named "Persona 3 Portable". And besides that, Nintendo consoles never received a true Persona game. (Persona Q is just Etrian Odyssey with a Persona 3/4 makeover)

In my honest opinion, it's unlikely that we'll see most of those registered domains as games. It's probably just for safekeeping them. It's too early to release a Persona 5 spin-off or enhanced edition and it's too late to release a Persona 3-themed game.

Persona v arena/ultimax i'm hoping.

 

[anhminh]

When will Sega allow Knucle to parody in one of those Persona game? I think he will rock as one of Persona.

 

[gnmmarechal]

I'd buy P3D so much.

As weird as it sounds I would love to see something like a persona baseball game

Wat.
Why?

Too good to be true, but let's dream!

I'll never understand why Atlus will continue to be retardo about porting their games over to PC, I can't think of a single Persona game at least the mainlines, that aren't playable on PC with Persona 5 just having some framerate issues, and graphical glitches to sort out. They are leaving money on the table, by having people resort to emulation instead of just porting the games over, especially since emulating them requires a pretty heavy duty machine.

I mean Persona 5 is capable of being run on a PS3, hell I bet that it could be run on most laptops in the wild right now, that would be a great market for the Persona games, especially considering how vast the PC market is, something could easily sell well, since it's a lot more accessible. It's a turn based game, that doesn't have a high amount of action therefore you don't need a controller for it. It looks like a game suitable for both keyboard and mouse, and controller.

I mean we can get Nights of Azure on PC which I would argue is a much nicher franchise, so I don't see what's Persona's excuse. Hell that game is a freaking action RPG which is not as accessible as something like Persona 5 since those are the type of games where you would want a controller to play them.
