Sega Sammy’s most recent financial report included a brief reference to Persona 4 Revival, but no firm release date was confirmed. The game is now listed under the company’s fiscal year 2027 lineup, with a projected window falling in the third quarter. If that projection holds, Persona 4 Revival could launch sometime between September 2026 and September 2027, though there is no guarantee that development will meet that target.
The P4 Revival teaser trailer released earlier this year showed no gameplay, UI, or voiceover. With no additional footage or development commentary provided since then, the timeline suggested by Sega’s internal forecast should be seen as tentative rather than locked in.

Sega Report Reveals Release Windows for Persona 4 Revival and Stranger Than Heaven
A new report from Sega reveals release windows for the eagerly awaited games Persona 4 Revival and Stranger Than Heaven.
Persona 4 Revival Appears in Sega’s Long-Term Plans
The teaser for Persona 4 Revival offered minimal insight into how far along the remake actually is. The trailer consisted only of cinematic footage, with no indication of real-time mechanics or interface. Given that, a multi-year wait remains possible.
Some have speculated that development began shortly after Persona 3 Reload launched in early 2024. That assumption, paired with the reuse of the Reload engine and assets, has led to guesses of a faster turnaround. However, this has not been confirmed by Atlus. Projections in financial reports often include early-stage titles that are still years away from completion.
Sega’s fiscal targets include both near-finished games and long-term development projects, with varying levels of progress at the time of listing.
Persona’s Only 2025 Release Looks to Be a Mobile Spin-Off
Nothing in the report indicated a new Persona console release arriving in 2025. The only known project scheduled is Persona 5: The Phantom X, developed primarily by Perfect World Games. This mobile entry is being released globally, with Atlus collaborating but not leading development. A Persona 3 Reload Complete Edition on Switch 2 has been floated as a possibility, but it was not directly mentioned in the latest financial materials.
If no other project is announced, 2025 may pass without a new Persona game from Atlus. While the report did highlight development efforts for Nintendo Switch 2-compatible games, Revival was grouped with a larger batch of long-term titles rather than short-term releases.
Persona 6 May Be Affecting the Development of P4R
With Persona 4 Revival now appearing in long-term projections, questions naturally turn to the status of Persona 6. Atlus has not shared concrete details about the game, and its development timeline remains unclear. Some believe it has been in the works for years, while others think it may still be early in production.
The 30th anniversary of the Persona series takes place in 2026, which could serve as the right moment for an announcement or release. Until then, Persona 6 remains unconfirmed in any official roadmap, with its timeline still up in the air.
The same financial slide emphasized “legacy IP,” which could refer to multiple properties beyond Persona, including titles like Skies of Arcadia or Shining Force.
Early Reveal Raises More Questions Than Answers
The reveal timing for Persona 4 Revival remains difficult to explain. It appeared shortly before the global rollout of Persona 5: The Phantom X, and the teaser included no gameplay or concrete development details. Around the time of the teaser, Persona 4’s original English voice actors confirmed they would not return for the remake. A domain name for Persona 4 Revival was also registered and discovered by fans. These developments may have influenced Atlus to reveal the project earlier than planned.
Without continued coverage or developer commentary, the reveal has started to feel premature. For a project still positioned as a long-term release, the initial announcement may have created more confusion than clarity. That said, the longer timeline may give Atlus the opportunity to refine Persona 4 Revival into something that properly honors the original. With the success of Persona 3 Reload setting a strong precedent, there’s room for Revival to benefit from lessons learned and feedback gathered over the past year.
