Never Saw it Coming: Two Big Persona 5 Announcements
By Yung Namahage • 5 years ago

Damn, Persona 5 really is everywhere these days. Even outside of its own awesome game, there's spinoff manga as well as appearances from characters in the intra-series crossover Persona Q2: New Cinema Labyrinth, plus Phantom Thieves leader Joker guest stars in Catherine: Full Body and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. And of course, you can't forget the official anime version of the game.


A special episode of Persona 5: The Animation aired just today, titled Dark Sun, which was meant to conclude the 26 episode series. Turned out that was only the first half, with the true final episode named Stars and Ours, airing as another special next March.


That's not all; Atlus has also officially annoucned a new project called Persona 5 R. Apart from the teaser trailer below, details are sparse, but more info will be coming in March alongside the new anime special. We could be looking at an enhanced version of the original game with new features and characters, in the vein of Persona 4 Golden before it.



Which announcement are you more hyped for? Are you excited to rejoin the Phantom Thieves soon? Sound off in the comments.
