Atlus's recent job postings have ignited speculation about the highly anticipated Persona 6. The renowned RPG developer is actively recruiting, adding fuel to the fire surrounding the next mainline installment.

Atlus Seeks Persona Producer: Persona 6 Imminent?

New Producer Sought for Unnamed Persona Project

(c) Atlus Game*Spark initially reported Atlus's search for a new producer to join the Persona team. The "Producer (Persona Team)" listing seeks an experienced IP and AAA game development professional to oversee production and management. While other roles (2D character designer, UI designer, scenario planner) were also advertised, they weren't explicitly tied to the Persona team.

This recruitment drive follows comments from game director Kazuhisa Wada, hinting at future series entries in Atlus's mid-to-long-term plans. Although Persona 6 remains unannounced, the job postings strongly suggest Atlus is actively preparing for its next major Persona title.

With nearly eight years passing since Persona 5's release, fans have eagerly awaited the next mainline entry, despite numerous spin-offs, remakes, and ports. Whispers of Persona 6 have circulated, with rumors dating back to 2019 suggesting concurrent development alongside titles like P5 Tactica and P3R. The phenomenal success of P3R, selling over one million copies in its first week, further underscores the franchise's enduring popularity. A 2025 or 2026 release window has been speculated, and an official announcement is anticipated soon.
