Atlus Seeks Persona Producer: Fueling Persona 6 Speculation

Persona Project Producer Sought

(c) Atlus As reported by Game*Spark, Atlus is actively recruiting a new producer for its Persona team. The "Producer (Persona Team)" position requires experience with major IPs and AAA game production. Other openings, not specifically for the Persona team, include roles like 2D character designer, UI designer, and scenario planner.

This hiring spree follows comments from game director Kazuhisa Wada about the company's plans to create new entries in the series. Although Persona 6 remains unannounced, these job postings suggest Atlus is preparing for the next major release in this popular RPG franchise.

It's been almost eight years since Persona 5. While fans have enjoyed spin-offs, remakes, and ports, information about the next main game remains scarce. Hints of "Persona 6" have appeared in rumors and teases.

Rumors from 2019 suggested Persona 6's development alongside titles like P5 Tactica and P3R, fueling speculation about a new major project. With P3R's impressive sales (one million copies sold in its first week), the franchise's momentum is stronger than ever. A 2025 or 2026 release for Persona 6 has been suggested, but the timeline is still unconfirmed. An official announcement is likely imminent.
