Persona dev says splitting the Atlus team to work on Metaphor: ReFantazio was "for the better" and will help the studio's future JRPGs stay "on the right track"
As Atlus cracks on with Metaphor: ReFantazio to ensure its smooth release this fall, some are wondering what the new JRPG means for the future of the Persona series - and thankfully, it seems that it's not compromised at all.
Persona 1 and 2 remakes aren't on Atlus' "schedule" right now, but the JRPG series' producer "would like to do it someday"
Most of Atlus' Persona series has received a remake of sorts, with Persona 3 Reload being the most recent - except for the first two games, although that could change one day.
Atlus lead says he'd like to do Persona 1 and 2 remakes, but you're not getting them any time soon
Sometimes I still don't quite believe it. After years, decades, of Atlus stubbornly refusing to put a bunch of Persona games on anything but a PlayStation, I now have 3, 4 and 5—in their expanded-edition forms—plus a 3 remake in my Steam library. What a time to be alive.
Atlus almost ‘gave up’ on making Persona 3 Reload’s The Answer DLC
When Persona 3 Reload was announced, fans were both excited and anxious. Since the original Persona 3’s release in 2006, the RPG has received two iterations in the form of Persona 3 FES and Persona 3 Portable, both of which had separate exclusive content that wasn’t available in the other. The former had a playable epilogue called The Answer, while the latter added a female protagonist.
Persona 6: everything we know so far
Originally a spinoff series from the Shin Megami Tensei series, Persona has arguably become the more popular and known name among gamers. This series set itself apart by combining the monster-catching elements of the best Pokémon games with a deep and satisfying turn-based combat system. But the real kicker is the engrossing story and lovable characters you spend so many hours with. Now that we’re several years out from Persona 5, and even from the Royal edition, everyone is looking toward the next entry in one of the best JRPG series out there. Let’s level up our Social Links and share all the information we have about Persona 6.
Persona 3 Reload producer dashes any remaining hopes for the return of Portable's female protagonist: 'It is likely never going to happen'
While we had a lot of love to share in our Persona 3 Reload review, we couldn't help but note one glaring omission in the remade slice of life dungeon crawler: Kotone Shiomi, the female protagonist added in Persona 3's PSP port, Persona 3 Portable. Despite her absence, Players have held out hopes that Portable's female protag option might return as other content from earlier versions of P3 arrives as DLC for Reload. Sadly, Persona series producer Kazuhisa Wada once again says it's not to be.

Persona 3 Reload producer apologizes for excluding the JRPG's female protagonist, but explains that adding her would cost "two to three times that of Episode Aigis"
Persona 3 Reload unfortunately won't be receiving the playable female protagonist, Kotone, seen in another version of the classic, and now, the game's producer has apologized for the exclusion.
