Persona Teases Seven Announcements To Celebrate 25th Anniversary

Atlus has revealed some plans to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the Persona series with seven announcements over the course of the coming year.

The company announced a new website dedicated solely to the celebrations and the upcoming announcements where they thanked fans for their support in pushing the series to sell more than 15 million copies. The website continued on to promise that there will be seven announcements that will include “25th commemorative goods, various events, collaborations, and of course game information.” The celebrations will kick off in September and will run until Autumn 2022.

That's pretty much all the details they revealed on it but let's speculate a little on what they could possibly show.

I think it's highly likely we'll see Persona 5 Royal or Persona 4: Golden come to other platforms either this year or early next year. At least I could see P5R coming to PC with a possibility of it also hitting Xbox consoles or Nintendo Switch, look I've played Persona 5 three times so I'll probably play it again if it came to Xbox. Lastly, I could see them teasing a Persona 6 with a short trailer similar to how they originally teased Persona 5, so a non-discript trailer basically tells us nothing. Hopefully, they'll finally have some big game news to share with Persona and not just look here buy some merchandise.

Persona Soundtrack Comes To Spotify

Persona 5 Royal

Atlus has announced that most of the original soundtracks for the Persona games will be dropping onto Spotify.

Here's a list of the following Atlus soundtracks available on Spotify now:

Persona 5 OST

P4 & P4 Golden OST

P3 & FES OST

P2 Sound Collections

P4 Dancing All Night OST

P4 Arena Ultimax OST

Never More - Reincarnation: Persona 4

P3 & P4 Vocal Sound Collection

PQ & PQ2 OST

As a massive nerd for Persona, I'm super stoked to see the soundtrack become easily accessible to listen to. Previously you could only get hold of the soundtrack for the games by purchasing the collector’s edition of the games or via uploads on YouTube.

Here are some of my favorite tracks from all the games I've played:

Mass Destruction (Persona 3 FES)

The Snow Queen (Persona 3 FES)

Pursuing My True Self (Persona 4 Golden)

Time To Make History (Persona 4 Golden)

Wake Up, Get Up, Get Out There (Persona 5)

Phantom (Persona 5)

Life Will Chhange (Persona 5)

I could have listed at least another ten songs, I don't know how Atlus does it but the songs gain so much meaning over the course of each game. If you can't tell, this is just a huge ploy to encourage you to go play Persona 5 Royal. Which you should because it's one of, if not the best game that released in 2020.
