Atlus has announced not one, not two, but three new titles at the Xbox Games Showcase, with the highly-anticipated Persona projects and an upcoming original storyline.
First, we have Persona 3 Reload, a remake that uses Atlus’ revamped engine with the latest generation consoles. Longtime fans will experience a new side to the original as it transcends the art style into the modern era through its characters and environment.
You’ll get to sneak peek of Persona 3 Reload’s gameplay, from battle sequences to the slice-of-life school intervals. Atlus has also provided an inside look into the upcoming character models of the protagonist and other familiar individuals.
While there isn’t an official release date, the showcase has disclosed that it will arrive sometime in early 2024 on Xbox Game Pass, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.
On top of that, Persona 5 will receive a spin-off storyline with Tactica, a strategic-based RPG starring the beloved Phantom Thieves of Hearts. However, this time around, the crew will be stylized in an adorable chibi-like design as they step into a new world.
Fortunately, Persona 5 Tactica has a set launch date of Nov. 17, 2023, which will also be featured across the Xbox consoles and PC.
Those looking for a fresh new take can look forward to another Atlus title with Metaphor: ReFantazio, a fantasy RPG that has an akin style to the Persona series. Like the Persona 5 spin-off, it will release in 2024 on Xbox Series X|S and PC.
Now that Atlus has revealed its game roadmap, Persona fans and newcomers can mark their calendars for its upcoming releases, ushering in a new era for the franchise.
