Persona 4 Is Rumored to Get a PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch Port

2008’s Persona 4 Is Coming Out Once Again

Atlus’ beloved JRPG Persona 4 is rumored to get a Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 4 port. The rumors state that the Midnight Channel Collection, which includes Persona 4, Persona 4 Golden and Persona 4 Arena Ultimax, is coming to the systems.

Persona 4 Golden PC Version

Persona 4 is a Japanese role-playing game mixed with a high school social simulator. You control a team of teenagers who discover a strange channel that only appears at midnight when it’s raining out. When the main character watches this channel, he finds out that he has the ability to enter the tv. His friends have the same ability as well, and together they slowly discover more and more secrets about their abilities and how they can use them to solve a series of murders happening in their town.

The rumors started after Twitter user @ScrambledFaz posted information revealing a tab for preordering the collection on Atlus’ website. The user found out that If you add “v2” at the end of the link to the Persona 4 Arena Ultimax website, an option to pre-order the Midnight Channel Collection for the Switch and PS4 revealed itself. You can’t actually pre-order it yet as there is only a coming soon tab available at the moment.

This rumor is likely true as Atlus has already ported a few persona titles to different platforms. Last year marked the first time a main series Persona title made its way to another platform. Atlus ported Persona 4 Golden to steam in June of 2020. Atlus also announced at The Game Awards that Persona 4 Arena Ultimax is getting a PS4, Switch and PC port. The main series games and most of their spinoffs have always been PlayStation exclusives.

With all of the recent ports and Shin Megami Tensei V (the greater series that Persona belongs to) being a Switch exclusive shows that Atlus is no longer loyal to just Sony.
