Following the success of *Persona 3: Reload*, excitement among fans for a *Persona 4* remaster is palpable. Recent developments have sparked speculation about a potential remake. A screenshot shared by *Persona* YouTuber ScrambledFaz on X revealed that the domain "p4re.jp" was registered on March 20th. This mirrors the timeline of "p3re.jp," which was registered just months before the announcement of *Persona 3: Reload*. This has led fans to theorize that a *Persona 4* remake might be on the horizon.
The original *Persona 4* was released in 2008, available on PlayStation 3 and 4. In 2012, *Persona 4 Golden* was launched, fully ported to PlayStation Vita and PC. This version included enhanced graphics and new content, such as a new town and the beloved romanceable character, Marie. However, *Persona 4 Golden* is not considered a full remake, similar to *Persona 3 Portable*, which was adapted for the PSP in 2009 with a new protagonist and additional character, Theodore. These enhancements, while significant, do not match the comprehensive overhaul seen in *Persona 3: Reload*.
What Would a Persona 4 Remake Look Like?
If a *Persona 4* remake follows the precedent set by *Persona 3: Reload*, fans have much to look forward to. The 2008 graphics of *Persona 4* are nostalgic, but a remake would bring a modernized visual overhaul, including updated character portraits and animated cut scenes. Additionally, a remake could introduce more side quests and deeper character interactions, enhancing the social link system. *Persona 4 Golden* introduced Okina City, offering activities like cinema visits and coffee shop hangouts. A remake could further enrich this urban environment.
When Should We Expect a Persona 4 Remake?
In 2024, a reliable Sega leaker confirmed that a *Persona 4* remake is in development, though a release might still be some time away. If we consider the timeline of *Persona 3: Reload*, an announcement could be expected as early as June, aligning with the reveal of *Persona 3: Reload* at the Xbox Summer Showcase in June 2023.
Amidst these developments, Atlus has been teasing news about *Persona 6* for years. With nearly a decade since *Persona 5*'s release, fans are eager for updates on the next installment. Rumors of a *Persona 4* remake have raised concerns about potential delays for *Persona 6*, which is rumored to have been in development for years. Some fans argue that *Persona 4* doesn't need a remake, fearing it might further postpone *Persona 6*. Hopefully, the development of a *Persona 4* remake won't significantly delay *Persona 6*.
That's the latest on the potential *Persona 4* remake, which fans are eagerly referring to as *Persona 4 Reload*.
