Atlus teases new announcements this year, lots more next year

I can't wait to see how different Persona 5 will be from P3/4, than they were from P1/2

I want it to be different, but a logical evolution from what we have in 3/4. I find that the series really found its stride then, before (1/2) being just a third-person, isometric megaten. Altus is in a nice spot with all of the spin-offs having drastically different game elements--persona the adv/rpg, Raidou the arpg, Devil survivor the rts--while all still sharing that core megaten vibe.
 
Please, No.

But maybe, it won't be shitty friends! But the good ones! There's hope!

I think that they might want to not alienate the massive fanbase they amassed from P3/4, but I'd really like to return to something a bit darker in it's thematics/story,

No S.Link. All female characters will try to kill you. Focused on dungeons only.

No S.Link? Not that important. But murderous waifus?! AWW HELL NO
 
I've been running on empty anticipating Persona 5 for so long now that I even started salivating at Mind Zero when it was first shown (and before the ughhhhhh first person crawler gameplay shittacular reveal) like a starved and deranged hound.

Surely when the SUDDENLY 10 PAGE FAMITSU REVEAL comes, the game in Japan at least is going to be like January 2014 or something.
 
TGS is going to be torture this year, juicy delicious torture. Then after it's done and I'm super salty Famitsu will probably just randomly announce P5.
 
Anyone that actually expects Persona 5 for PS4 is batshit insane; even PS3 is unlikely.

I think the PS3 is pretty damn likely. I would say PS3/Vita like a lot of others are doing, but Atlus loves that FES/Golden money, so.

I do and don't want that. P3 was a lot closer to 1/2 in that regard, and I dug it, but the light-heartedness of P4 was addicting.
 
hopefully new Raidou and/or DDS is among them. or just give me a new Growlanser. thank you.

or something new like a Dark Souls style game in the SMT universe, right?
 
Looking forward to the Persona 3 Royal 3DS announcement thread ^_^
Seriously though, Persona 5 for all major systems please Atlus.
 
I fully expect Persona 5 to be a PS3/360 game. But I wouldn't mind it being a 3DS game after the outstanding SMT IV.

They won't do a new set demon models just for Persona 5... but I guess they can just recycle the current set for the PS3.
 
Don't think my heart can stand waiting much longer, Atlus.

I'd also like to see what Kaneko is up to, if anything.

There's no saying it'd be just for P5. Atlus could get their usual re-use on with all the other upcoming projects.

They'd have to do new models at some point. Now's the best time, imo; recoup on the game they can be sort of assured that they'll recoup the investments on.
 
why was there just two years between Persona 3 and 4 and we're five years out without even an announcement of Persona 5

Probably because P4 used the same engine as P3, and was on the same console as well. The only differences in P4 was really design/UI, but besides that there wasn't really a difference in the game engine.
 
Time to update the hype train.

I'd be surprised if Atlus didn't pull something similar to SMTIV and set up an earlier release than is typical for P5, but I suppose we'll have to wait and see.

Really, really hoping for an announcement sometime between the music festival and TGS, which would in turn possibly mean fall/winter 2014.

There's also SMT x FE though. Whatever demon models they make for PS3-level hardware can easily be recycled at least between those two games.

Let me tell you about the gap between Persona 2 and Persona 3. Then let me tell you about the gap between Shin Megami Tensei 2 and Shin Megami Tensei 3. And then the gap between Shin Megami Tensei 3 and Shin Megami Tensei 4.

HD jump I imagine. Other projects taking priority.

Hopefully Persona 6 will be a short 2 year wait. But that's a pointless discussion right now
 
atlus has to create new demon models at some point. they could have worked on the ps3 tech models and shift them to next gen when the time is right. they can't reuse the same old models forever.

Well the Persona team was the one behind Catherine right, which ate up a few years. Part of the reason for Catherine's existence was to gain experience with the Gamebryo engine for HD development.

Then in a later interview, I believe they said they dropped Gamebryo and were working on an engine of their own. I'd imagine that would eat up more time, especially if they have to make new demon models and animations.

Unless recent information has come to light about what they've been up to, this should be accurate.
