Leaker Talks Persona 6 Xbox, Game Pass Chances
16.03.2024 - 23:13 / gamerant.com / Dominik Bo
Persona 6 will be available on Xbox consoles, a well-known leaker has said. The claim was offered along with some speculation about the chances of Persona 6 also making its way to Xbox Game Pass, much like the other recent entries in the series.
Persona 6 has been in development for at least three years, with Atlus's first mention of the game dating back to a 2021 job posting, which saw the studio talk about a company-wide desire to surpass the fifth numbered installment in the franchise in every way. Since all the mainline entries that preceded it debuted as PlayStation exclusives, there has been no shortage of fan speculation that Persona 6 could continue that pattern.
But prolific leaker Nate the Hate believes that won't be the case. «From the information I've heard, it does seem as if Persona 6 will be coming to the Xbox,» the insider said during the latest episode of the DirectXbox podcast, around the 23:15 mark. Elaborating on that claim, Nate the Hate noted that he is not entirely certain if the game's Xbox debut will happen on the same date as its seemingly inevitable PlayStation launch. But given how Persona 5 Tactica and Persona 3 Reload were both treated to same-day multi-platform releases, Nate the Hate labeled the notion of Persona 6 following suit as plausible.
On the other hand, the insider isn't as convinced that Persona 6 will manage to reach Xbox Game Pass, at least initially. While he didn't claim to have any concrete info about its potential arrival on Microsoft's subscription service, Nate the Hate opined that such a high-profile launch would «would take a lot to do.» Although the latest two Persona games were both day-one releases on Xbox Game Pass, neither of those was a new mainline series entry.
From the information I've heard, it does seem as if Persona 6 will be coming to the Xbox.
The most reliable among the currently active Atlus leakers, Midori, hasn't yet said anything on the subject of Persona 6's target platforms. They did mention the upcoming RPG on quite a few occasions, having recently shared that Persona 6 is targeting a 2025 release, but could still slip into 2026, depending on how its development progresses.
Taking their most conservative estimate at face value, it would appear that Persona 6 is likely to set a new record for the longest gap between the mainline series entries, which currently stands at eight years that Atlus took to release Persona 5 after Persona 4 launched to widespread critical acclaim in 2008. Midori also believes that the Japanese studio is currently working on the remakes of Persona 4 and the 2D games in the franchise, though none of them are expected to hit the market before Persona 6 does.
