However, Takada wasn't clear on this title. So far, Atlus is planning to release Persona 4 Arena Ultimax Remastered on PC, Nintendo Switch, and PlayStation 4. Potentially, the developers could be the Project Re Fantasy.
Since 2017 Atlus has held off announcing more details about this major project that they've assigned to Studio Zero. This game will be loaded with director Katsura Hashino, character designer Shigenori Soejima, and music director Shoji Meguro. All of these Atlus heads are known to have worked on the Persona series up until Persona 5. Fans can be sure to expect something big once Atlus finally announces something about this next big title, hopefully in 2022.
