Looking forward to Persona 6? You're not the only one, and eagle-eyed fans have spotted a hint at the next game in the RPG series in an Atlus recruitment pictureTech16:16, 18 Mar 2025Updated 16:17, 18 Mar 2025Can you believe it's been almost a decade since Persona 5 launched? The title, which originally hit PS3 and PS4 in Japan in 2016, is rightly considered one of the greatest RPGs of all time, but fans have been itching for a follow-up.It doesn't quite feel that long because Atlus has been sticking with the Phantom Thieves in the years since, with Persona 5: Royal, Strikers, and Tactica keeping us going but we're ready for a new adventure now.Article continues belowAnd, thanks to eagle-eyed fans, it appears we could be due some news soon after a reference to Persona 6 appeared on Atlus' recruitment site. Here's all we know.Content cannot be displayed without consentPosting over on X (formerly Twitter), YouTuber Faz shared an image from a recruitment site for developer Atlus.In the top left corner, the number 'XRD768' can be seen. Which, on its own, is nothing but context is everything.Last year, one leaker (who has since been rumbled as an alternate account) mentioned that XRD768 is the not-so-catchy codename for Persona 6.The designation appearing on an Atlus screenshot throws up questions about other leaks from that account, and whether their reports of dual protagonists and an art school setting are legitimate.To its credit, it's not like Atlus has been sitting around in the years since Persona 5.In fact, the company has released plenty of games and remasters since, as well as the absolutely fantastic Metaphor: ReFantazio last year, which was deemed one of the year's best.Atlus also gave Persona fans a Persona 3 remake, dubbed Persona 3 Reload, and rumours have persisted that the company will look to do the same for Persona 4.With the Persona series having such a strong presence on handheld systems over the years, there's every chance Nintendo could include something related to the series at its big Switch 2 unveiling next month.For more on JRPGs, check out the Final Fantasy x Magic The Gathering crossover, as well as suggestions more Final Fantasy remakes are inbound.Article continues belowFor the latest breaking news and stories from across the globe from the Daily Star, sign up for our newsletters.
