After months of speculation and growing anticipation, the Persona 4 Remake may finally be revealed this weekend during the Xbox Games Showcase on June 8. A new report from MP1st claims that a source familiar with the 2025 showcase has confirmed the beloved JRPG’s return will be part of Microsoft’s major summer gaming event.
Fan Hype Builds as Evidence Mounts
The rumor mill has been swirling for weeks, but things began to heat up when a web domain linked to a potential Persona 4 Remake was updated in April—following a familiar pattern used by Atlus prior to past announcements. Around the same time, trusted Microsoft leaker Extas1s claimed the project would be revealed at the June event. This week’s report adds significant weight to that claim, sparking a surge of excitement among fans.
Persona 4, originally released in 2008, is one of the most celebrated entries in the Persona franchise. With its small-town murder mystery setting and emotionally rich characters, it remains a fan favorite to this day.
Following in Persona 3 Reload’s Footsteps
The success of Persona 3 Reload in 2024 demonstrated that modern remakes of classic Persona titles can be both critically and commercially successful. That game debuted during the 2023 Xbox Games Showcase, setting a precedent for where Atlus could unveil another major remake.
According to the report, Persona 4 Remake is being developed for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S, though a Nintendo Switch 2 version has yet to be confirmed.
Voice Actor Shake-Up Adds to Speculation
Further fueling rumors, three original voice actors from Persona 4 recently confirmed via social media that they had not been contacted to reprise their roles for the new project. This suggests a possible recasting or complete re-recording of the game’s dialogue—hinting at a fresh take on the remake rather than a simple remaster.
