Persona 6 is expected to expand its reach to Xbox consoles, according to a prominent leaker. Speculation also surrounds the possibility of Persona 6 entering Xbox Game Pass, similar to previous series titles.

Development of Persona 6 has been ongoing for over three years, starting with Atlus's announcement in a 2021 job listing, expressing the intent to surpass the success of its predecessor. Given the historical exclusivity of mainline Persona games to PlayStation platforms, fans have debated the potential continuation of this trend with Persona 6.

Persona 6 Might Arrive on Xbox Consoles

Renowned leaker Nate the Hate shared insights suggesting that Persona 6 will break the PlayStation exclusivity and launch on Xbox. During the DirectXbox podcast, Nate hinted at a possible staggered release between PlayStation and Xbox. Drawing parallels with previous releases like Persona 5 Tactica and Persona 3 Reload, which had simultaneous multi-platform launches, Nate speculated on a similar approach for Persona 6.

Potential Xbox Game Pass Debut for Persona 6 is Uncertain

However, Nate expressed skepticism about Persona 6 debuting on Xbox Game Pass immediately. Citing the magnitude of such a launch, Nate suggested significant efforts would be needed. While past Persona games debuted on Xbox Game Pass on launch day, these were not flagship series entries.

Midori, a reliable Atlus leaker, has not confirmed the platforms for Persona 6 yet. Mentioning a potential release window around 2025, with a possible delay to 2026, Midori hinted at ongoing development. If this timeline holds, Persona 6 could mark the longest gap between mainline releases, surpassing the eight-year interval between Persona 4 and Persona 5.

Midori also hinted at Atlus working on remakes of Persona 4 and older franchise titles, expected post the Persona 6 launch.
