I hope there will also be a physical version, kind of doubt it though.

Surprising they are skipping the Switch btw (for now at least).

notachance684d ago

I feel like they’re still working things out with Nintendo because of SMT series exclusivity on that platform, because if Persona ever comes out on Switch the other platforms will be asking for SMT ports too.

Nyxus684d ago

Yeah just port everything to all platforms at this point.

Neonridr684d ago

I mean the Switch does have some Persona titles. Just not the core entries.

LOGICWINS684d ago

Hoping for a physical Series X edition as well!

autobotdan684d ago

Maybe Limited Run games will make limited time physical discs for xbox persona games. Since LR just recently just started including xbox limited physical orders

Nyxus684d ago

Yeah but from what I understand Sega isn't really willing to let them publish their games. They tried releasing a physical version of Yakuza 5 but they couldn't get it. Eventually Sega released it themselves as part of the Remastered Collection.

Sirk7x683d ago

It's possible it's coming to Switch as well, and Nintendo wants to announce it themselves during a Direct, but who knows.

Sucks that they just went with a straight port of Portable. Would have been perfect if it was FES with the added content from P3P and proper 3D free roaming. Would've been the definitive version I always wanted.

CrimsonWing69683d ago

Yea I scratched my head when I saw P3P instead of FES…

Lexreborn2684d ago

Who didn’t see this happening though? Sega can make money off of old games at retail price. That’s a easy yes

RPGer684d ago

The content and quality of Yakuza and Persona franchises deserve $59.99/49.99 tag price. I just hope they will dodge that absurd $69.99.

Silly gameAr683d ago

Yeah, because 10 more bucks is highway freaking robbery. Do they think gamers are trillionaires? We deserve our games to be 10 dollars cheaper, because that's what we demand!

CBaoth683d ago

sounds like you should be buying a series S n a GP sub. Join the welfare club if a tenner guts you

Shadowsteal683d ago

"Absurd $69.99"

Games have been $59.99 since 2005. That's 17 years!

It costs $70 to go to and from work for many people due to gas prices but God forbid you spend the same on a video game lol.

CrimsonWing69683d ago

From my understanding all next-gen games will now be $70 because, well because the game industry is greedy.

These and all the Yakuza games are in GamePass, just play them there instead of paying retail.

GoodGuy09684d ago

Niiice. Bout time it got announced....I feel bad for switch owners though lol. Would be a huge seller there which is really confusing.

PhoenixUp684d ago

Why not ps4 a s well fo rd p3 and p4

MrNinosan684d ago

And N64 while at it.
It's 2022, time to move on now.

Sirk7x683d ago

Would be nice, is PS5s were readily available. I'd probably buy one right now if I could find any in stock, despite not really needing it at the moment xD

PhoenixUp683d ago

@ Mr

What a ridiculous response

These titles are still coming to Xbox One as well, so it's even more absurd for them not to be on PS4. Especially since a large swath of titles are still arriving on the very relevant PS4

Persona 3 Director Says The Game Saved Atlus From Collapsing

The studio was on the verge of collapse when Persona 3 came out, and things were looking quite grim for Atlus. Regardless, many decisions made in the game paid off and became a staggering success.

SDuck238d ago

Years ago, I was emulating the game on my laptop and the old thing died when I was about to get to the final boss. I'm more than happy to buy this remake when it comes out so I can finish it!

TheColbertinator238d ago (Edited 238d ago )

At the time I was immersed in SMT Nocturne and later DDS. I did not realize at all how important Persona would become for me years later.

raWfodog238d ago

Persona 3 FES was the first one that I played in the series. Looking forward to the remake.

Half-Glass Gaming: "Often considered one of the darker entries in Atlus' Persona series, Persona 3 definitely has a sinister vibe to it, and it leans into horror more than you might realize."

How Persona 3 Retroactively Solves Persona 5's Biggest Problem

Even though Persona 4 and 5 are monumental leaps over Persona 3, a crucial aspect has been lost in the transition.

McMahonme7457d ago

That's a good point I didn't really think of but it lends to the narrative a lot more than P5 for sure. I also enjoy how much more streamlined the game is and how it doesn't have a 13 hour tutorial.
