Three iconic Persona games are coming to Xbox and PC, starting later this year
One of the biggest surprises of the recent Xbox & Bethesda Showcase was that the Persona series was making the jump to Xbox, a first for the series and while there are three games coming, the first Persona 5 Royal is coming this October 21st.
As there are three games in the works for Xbox, they all have different stories, characters and release dates, here is some details about them all, starting with Persona 3 Portable.
If I say there’s an hour “hidden” between one day and the next… would you believe me? This unknown time is the “Dark Hour.” Unfamiliar stillness swallows the city, people turn into eerie coffins, and otherworldly monsters called Shadows swarm. One night, the protagonist is attacked by these Shadows. When all hope seems lost, the power of the heart, their Persona, is awakened.
Next up is Persona 4 Golden, which is already available on PC via Steam.
They say your soulmate will appear if you stare into a television set on a rainy night… This strange rumor slowly spreads through the rural town of Inaba, the protagonist’s new home, just as a chain of mysterious murders begin. As the protagonist and his teammates chase after the truth, they find themselves opening the door to another world.
Finally, the one that most gamers know due to its insane success, Persona 5 Royal.
Forced to transfer to a high school in Tokyo, the protagonist has a strange dream. “You truly are a prisoner of fate. In the near future, ruin awaits you.” With the goal of “rehabilitation” looming overhead, he must save others from distorted desires by donning the mask of a Phantom Thief.
All the games when they are released, will launch into Xbox Game Pass and work on Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S and PC.
