A Persona 1 Remake Is In Development, New Leak Suggests

Persona games really do have a bad habit of leaking ahead of their reveals, as gameplay of a Revelations: Persona remake has surfaced

A Persona 1 Remake Is In Development, New Leak Suggests

A Persona 1 remake is reportedly in development, according to a new leak. The leaked footage, which surfaced online around Halloween, appears to showcase a remake of Persona Revelations, the first installment in the series. The game's protagonist navigates a school-themed dungeon and engages in combat, with Tatsuya Suou, protagonist of Persona 2: Innocent Sin, also appearing in the footage.

Fans have observed that some animations used in the video resemble those from Persona 4 Revival. If this is indeed authentic, the remake remains several years away from release, as it is unlikely to be launched before the upcoming Persona 4 Revival in February 2027 and Persona 6, which does not have a release date yet. While this leaked footage indicates Atlus' satisfaction with the reception of Persona 3 Reload, it also highlights the repeated leaks of Persona games recently.

Such leaks include Persona 3 Reload's gameplay being revealed before its announcement, and even the voice actors who weren't involved in Persona 4 Revival's production had their existence leaked. Despite these leaks potentially harming morale at Atlus, the positive aspect is that they generate excitement for upcoming games, prompting anticipation for a new version of Persona Revelations.
