Update:

On March 20, 2025, it was discovered that Atlus had potentially registered a Persona 4 Remake domain name called "P4RE.JP." This domain name has been updated today, on April 21, 2025.

The update to the P4RE website domain is similar to updates for previous Persona domains shortly before their related games were announced: a move to owned nameservers instead of the Onamae (Japanese domain registrar) nameservers for the generic landing page.

The website currently returns an error, being unable to be retrieved on the front-end.

Unlike previous domain updates, however, this one does not feature an indicated address for the domain's host.

Given the trends of Atlus domain names being updated shortly before a reveal, this would normally mean that a Persona 4 remake would be announced imminently. This is contingent on the legitimacy of the actual domain, and whether or not it's an official, Atlus domain name for such a project.

For Persona fans, this might be déjà vu. A new website domain, p4re.jp, was just registered today (March 20, 2025), and it's already fueling speculation that a Persona 4 Remake could be on the way.

This was spotted by Twitter (X) user ScrambledFaz, who pointed out that two years ago, a similar domain, p3re.jp, was registered. Three months later, Atlus officially announced Persona 3 Reload. Now, with p4re.jp popping up, fans are connecting the dots and wondering if history is about to repeat itself.

"p4re.jp was registered a few hours ago," the X post reads. "2 years ago, p3re. jp was registered. 3 months later Persona 3 Reload was revealed."​

Would rather have Persona 2 remade but I guess that wouldn't sell near as much.

 

[consoul]

Persona 4: Rerun

 

[Loomy]

 

[struggler_guts]

AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH

 

[diffusionx]

Why not, P3R evidently did well.

That said, P3R is competent but pretty pedestrian. And we already have the definitive version of P4 on all platforms, unlike P3 where we only had portable.

 

[John Bilbo]

It is happening again.

 

[Draugoth]

At this point Persona 6 will be a PlayStation 6 launch title

 

[Magister]

Watch it being censored to hell in the West. Well, at least we still have Golden.

 

[Dazraell]

At this point Persona 6 will be a PLaystation 6 launch title

Knowing Atlus they will try to first push out P3R and P4R remasters / extended editions

 

[MMaRsu]

Bruh SMT IV needs a remaster way more being stuck on 3DS

P4 is also my least favorite Persona I've played

 

[StereoVsn]

It would be a lot more work as well to get the Duology properly converted to modern games combat systems and graphics.

On the other hand, giving P4G a treatment similar to P3 Reload is a much easier endeavor. I really hope they don't screw with the story and character dialogue to appease modern audiences though.

Edit: Where is god damn P6!? I really hope that this isn't an indicator that we won't see P6 for another 3-5 years.

 

[Arsic]

Curious if they'll go a little bit bigger in ambition for this project.

I still don't see myself playing this again due to the length and pacing of the game even if it is in my top 10 jrpgs ever.

 

[TintoConCasera]

If we are lucky lmao.

SMT IV needs a remaster

Same. Fantastic game that I have no interest in ever replaying

 

[MMaRsu]

SMT IV pls

 

[Lokaum D+]

Chie the best Waifu, lets GOOOOOOOO

 

[TintoConCasera]

SMT IV pls

I'd love it even if just to see people's reactions to the minotaur bossfight.

 

[StereoVsn]

SMT IV pls

That's one game alongside Apocalypse we really need ported. SMT IV especially was very good.

And as long as we are porting, let's get Strange Journey and Devil Survivor games as well!

I mean just the soundtrack alone..

This.

But I'll still be there day 1.

 

[MMaRsu]

Shutupihateyoustupidjerk

Teddy is just so annoying man. His voice is grating to the ears! Nothing like Morgana, who can also be annoying but at least the voice isnt so annoying. Meoww!!

I'm biased because P5 was my first Persona/SMT type game, and after that I went back and checked them all from Nocturne onwards, but P4 I like the least.

 

[TintoConCasera]

I mean just the soundtrack alone..

Easy top 10 videogame soundtracks ever. Lots of both quantity and quality, plus it has my favorite JRPG battle theme

 

[Thick Thighs Save Lives]

Would be dope if they drop a short teaser during the upcoming Switch 2 direct.

 

[laynelane]

Would rather have Persona 2 remade but I guess that wouldn't sell near as much.

I'd take Persona, SMT 4, and SMT Strange Journey too. Those games could really benefit from a remake and allow many people to play them who missed out the first time.

 

[HRK69]

 

[Dorfdad]

100% switch 2 related

 

[NeverYouMind]

Dope. I hope Chie does not have annoying Golden voice and there is no censorship...

 

[LRKD]

Why bother 3 didn't even get the treatment it deserved

 

[TintoConCasera]

Why bother

 

[San Dan Glokta]

Chie the best Waifu, lets GOOOOOOOO

Take that back! I will duel you to death for m'lady's honor!

 

[Dzab]

Can't wait for Kanji and Naoto to be "changed", oh boy.
It really doesn't need a remake, best Persona game though.

 

[San Dan Glokta]

This.

But I'll still be there day 1.

Same. Watch them fuck up Naoto and Kanji and make them Gay.

 

[Mibu no ookami]

Would rather have Persona 2 remade but I guess that wouldn't sell near as much.

I'm sure they'll get there.

I'm glad I held off on finishing P4 once they announced the P3 remake.

 

[Astray]

I'll probably pick it up day 1. Heard a lot about P4 and want to try it out, but would prefer to do so with QoL improvements and sharp graphics

 

[LordCBH]

4 really doesn't need it

 

[FoxMcChief]

Eh tu, Atlus?

 

[Nex240]

Oh boy can't wait for all the normie people who started with Persona 5 to play this and call Adachi an incel, argue about Naoto's gender identity and Kanji's sexual identity on twitter.

 

[hemo memo]

Doesn't need a remake.

It does; random dungeons need to go.

 

[digimaster7]

Nah, I doubt it, the bikini armor still exist in P3Reload

 

[Sept Terrion Of Nothing]

P4G was my first Persona game and I finished it on my Vita 12-13 years ago. Like Dragon Age Origins, I'm totally biased towards it. Slightly behind my GOAT DA: Origins by hair.

Was expected they will Remake it. I'm obligated to buy

 

[Thick Thighs Save Lives]

Would rather have Persona 2 remade but I guess that wouldn't sell near as much.

Hopefully the next Persona remake they'll do after this one will be P2 since I never played it.

Btw, I think a P2 remake will sell well since it was at the top of an Atlus questionnaire from May 2022:

Q48: If remakes (remake of a game with new elements added and improved visuals and controls, etc.) of past Atlus games were released, would you want to play them? If you would want to play, please select the platform you would want to play on.

The results shown are as follows, with the percentage of respondents who voted for those options.

1. Persona 3 (P3 / P3FES / P3P) (78.9%)
2. Persona 2: Innocent Sin / Persona 2: Eternal Punishment (78.9%)
3. Revelations: Persona (76.3%)
4. Persona 4 (P4G) (74.8%)
5. Devil Summoner: Raidou Kuzunoha series (72.1%)
6. Devil Summoner: Soul Hackers (69.5%)
7. Shin Megami Tensei IV: Apocalypse (66.7%)
8. Shin Megami Tensei IV (65.3%)
9. Digital Devil Saga: Avatar Tuner series (62.4%)
10. Etrian Odyssey series (58%)

I'm so tired of those retards who don't play the games coming out of the woodwork every time 4 gets brought up.

Damn that's a good sign! Hopefully they listen and give us a remaster later on.

 

[JayK47]

I'm fine with this. I forgot how awful these older Persona games looked. I already played Persona 3 and 4 on PS2 way back. A remake at least gives me a reason to play again. The Persona 3 remake looks great and I plan to play it eventually. I am actually currently playing Persona 5 Royal.

 

[Makoto-Yuki]

fuck yeah. P4 looks awful and needs a lot of QoL changes to bring it up to par with Reload and Royal.

day 1.

 

[adamsapple]

Same. Watch them fuck up Naoto and Kanji and make them Gay.

Eh.

Kanji is already portrayed as someone not sure with his sexuality. It's still one of the better portrayal of a character struggling with it, especially amazing that it came from a JRPG of all places.
