Persona Job Listing Crop Up Amid Persona 6 Speculations

Atlus's recent job postings have ignited speculation about the highly anticipated Persona 6. The prominent game developer, renowned for its Persona RPG series, has updated its recruitment page with several key positions.

Atlus Seeks Persona Producer: Persona 6 Imminent?

New Producer Sought for Unnamed Persona Project

(c) Atlus As reported by Game*Spark, Atlus is actively recruiting a new producer for its Persona team. The "Producer (Persona Team)" listing requires extensive experience in AAA game production and IP management. Additional postings, though not explicitly for the Persona team, include roles such as 2D character designer, UI designer, and scenario planner.

This recruitment drive follows comments from game director Kazuhisa Wada, who indicated the company's long-term plans include new Persona installments. While Persona 6 remains unconfirmed, these job postings strongly suggest Atlus is actively developing its next major Persona title.

The absence of a mainline Persona game since Persona 5's release nearly eight years ago has fueled considerable fan anticipation. Numerous spin-offs, remakes, and ports have kept the franchise alive, but details about the next mainline entry remain scarce. Rumors, dating back to 2019, suggested concurrent development of Persona 6 alongside titles like P5 Tactica and P3R. The remarkable success of P3R, selling over one million copies in its first week, further solidifies the franchise's momentum. A 2025 or 2026 release window for Persona 6 has been speculated, but an official announcement is eagerly awaited.
