Atlus officially announced Persona 5 R over the weekend, but aside from a PS4-branded trailer promising more details in March 2019, we still don’t know exactly what kind of game it’ll be.
Persona 5 R is widely believed to be an expanded edition of the blockbuster RPG, especially since the publisher has a history of re-releasing games in the Persona franchise with additional content. Persona 3 FES expanded on Persona 3 in 2008, and Persona 4 Golden did the same for Persona 4 in 2012.
Earlier this month, Atlus and Nintendo announced that Persona 5’s Joker would be added to Super Smash Bros. Ultimate in 2019. It’s possible this new partnership could help bring Persona 5 R (again, whatever it is) to the Switch, but that’s all speculation as of today.
