Persona 4 Revival Launches February 18, 2027
Persona 4 Revival marks the second major Persona remake in three years, following Persona 3 Reload, and brings a beloved entry to modern platforms with a simultaneous multi-platform release.
Reporting from 7 sources: Anime News Network, GAME Watch (Impress), 4Gamer.net, Denfaminicogamer, and 3 more.
Atlus announced during the Xbox Games Showcase 2026 livestream on June 7 that Persona 4 Revival, a full remake of the 2008 role-playing game Persona 4, will launch on February 18, 2027. The game will be available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox PC with Xbox Game Pass, and PC via Steam. Pre-orders are now open. The remake modernizes visuals, battles, and events, according to 4Gamer.net. The original Persona 4 followed a student who moves to a rural town, investigates the urban legend of the Midnight Channel, and solves a series of murders. The game later received a Vita port titled Persona 4 Golden and inspired spin-offs including Persona 4 Arena and Persona 4: Dancing All Night. Atlus previously released a remake of Persona 3, titled Persona 3 Reload, in February 2024. The announcement was part of a broader showcase that also revealed a release date for the Fable reboot, set for February 23, 2027.
The remake is based on Persona 4 The Golden, the expanded Vita port from 2011, rather than the original 2008 PlayStation 2 release, according to 4Gamer.net. Atlus released a new trailer alongside the announcement, showing battle scenes and story cutscenes, GAME Watch reported. The Steam store page for the game went live on July 18, 2025, Denfaminicogamer noted.
Atlus also used the same Xbox Games Showcase 2026 livestream to tease Persona 6, a new mainline entry in the series, Anime News Network reported. That game was announced for Xbox Series X|S, Xbox on PC, and Xbox Game Pass, with no release date given.
The original Persona 4 launched for the PlayStation 2 in 2008. Its story follows a high school student who moves to the rural town of Inaba, investigates the urban legend of the Midnight Channel, and pursues a serial killer. The protagonist and his friends awaken to Persona powers to fight Shadows in a TV world. The game later received the enhanced port Persona 4 Golden for PlayStation Vita in 2011, and inspired spin-offs including Persona 4 Arena, Persona 4 Arena Ultimax, and Persona 4: Dancing All Night.
Atlus previously released Persona 3 Reload, a remake of Persona 3, in February 2024. That game launched on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Xbox Game Pass, and PC via Windows and Steam, and later came to Nintendo Switch in October 2024.
