Hopefully a DDS1+2 HD remaster collection, I am sure Raidou is getting something, maybe a SMT5 spinoff or direct sequel. I am sure Persona 6 is right around the corner.
Guys picture this: Metaphor gets nominated for best RPG, best Soundtrack and GOTY at the game awards. Maybe it wins one of those awards (it doesn’t have to but the nomination alone is an honour). Then right before the GOTY is announced, Geoff Keighley says they have one more game announcement for us. *screen goes black* *ATLUS logo appears* *Green slowly fades in* *Persona 6 logo fades in* Cinema.
@@DragonKingX78 then it isnt digital devil saga, DDS wasnt like other megaten series it was always intended to be a standalone release just split into 2 games cause of the size limit, making a third game doesnt work for DDS like a mainline, setting a game in another world that just so happens to also have the atma virus doesnt work
they'll need a good light novel, manga or anime for inspiration.. ... Metaphors story is inspired by the light novels / anime "Re: Zero starting a new life in another world" ... that said, if the game didn't pander, didn't have performance issues, was better balanced later (RNG too), and was less restrictive (exploration, calendar, etc.), it could have been a true Goty candidate.. ... but its NOT better than DQXIS or P5R.., its overall more akin to Y's X (which is great too..,, just not DQXIS-level..)
Well considering metaphor is the title and re fantazio is a subtitle, my belief is that they named it as such so they can use the series to explore any setting they want. If they did a sci fi setting, the archetypes could be stereotypical character roles in scifi settings, like an engineer, a hacker, a pilot. They could even take some inspo from more science fantasy settings like star wars and have an archetype called a knight or something that is like a jedi. So many possibilities for the metaphor franchies going forward
I would love to see DDS1+2 HD remaster collection, DDS3, SMT5 spinoffs/sequels, Devil Summoner/Soul Hackers remakes, good Persona 1+2s remakes(no calendar/school sim), new non-Persona Megaten games, etc.
Ronde HD, and i'm Atlus slave :) But seriously i want a new Majin Tensei game with fixed problems of original games. Those games have so much potential.
I would love an smt v sequel and was hoping for one more than an enhanced version, considering we have vengeance now i doubt we would ever get a sequel. I think that the canon of vengeance doesnt have good sequel potential in its endings and it would be weird for them to do a sequel on the canon of creation after vengeance. I hope we get an SMT 1 remake with the graphics of V, with a mix of traditional dungeons and areas like V. Maybe they could finally realise the intended use of Hayataro to be a mount and have Cerberus be a mount in such a remake.
You don't, but it's obvious Persona 6 will be their next game. doubt we get any dlcs coming or any remasters or remake. I mean sure maybe something like Catherine 2 or some shit but I doubt it.
@tbnwontpop8857 some of the leaks are reliable, like how Atlus is behind schedule in releasing games due to COVID. Taking into account official sources, Tactica and Reload were originally meant to be Persona 25th reveals, but pushed back due to COVID and needing remasters to have the spotlight. It can be assumed the massive amount of Atlus games in 2024 are initially meant to be released earlier, but forced to push back, which was a wise choice. Also Atlus is more careful with promotion pacing, in which the confirmed games reveal close to the actual launch date. The next gen Switch is the other issue, since it's a realistic assumption that Reload (likely complete edition with DLC and expansion pass) and Re;Fantazio will be present in the next gen Nintendo console.
Not a "Pillar franchize" like Persona, SMT or (maybe) Metaphor -- but give us Etrian Odyssey 6 already. Lord knows they dropped enough crumbs and references in Metaphor! Someone over at Atlus still loves those games
I would love a new Catherine game or a game like Catherine. Not sure how they can make a sequel to this game but Catherine was really my introduction to Atlus as a whole so I would love to see this happen
A new Devil Survivor or Devil Summoner would be hype. Or I had an idea a while back for a SJ 2. If they dropped the SMT like how Soul Hackers 2 dropped Devil Summoner, they could make SJ a new spin off series. I think the must haves in such a series would just need to be 1. Sci fi setting or anything other than Tokyo/Japan, I think space would be a cool one (esp if you make it a direct sequel to SJs neutral endings, and have it that humanity had to leave earth) 2. Demon co op. 3. Demonicas 4. Protag cant learn skills and must get skills by equipping different guns or different types of bullets into guns. Beyond that I would say they can be as free as they want. I think first person dungeon crawler would be cool but that obviously doesnt sell, so most likely would be 3rd person.
@@louish5068 the funny thing is that I think atlus would want to port the older devil survivor games first to see people interest in it and then they would make a new one. But who knows
Metaphor it's technically still Megaten (something between SMT, Persona and Etrian Odyssey). But knowing how well did Soul Hackers 2, i think all SMT spinoffs who is not Persona / Metaphor are dead. Max. we can have now are ports or remasters, and pray to YHVH for good RNG in Atlus.
I think we'll see a port or remaster in the first half of the year and a bigger title in the second half of the year, maybe new Etrian Odyssey finally? Also a possible P6 announcement.
While new games would be great; honestly just bringing the titles stuck on the 3DS to modern systems (and reworked for one screen) would make me fairly happy. SMT IV and Apocalypse, Strange Journey, Devil Survivor 1 and 2, Soul Hackers 1 remaster... There's so many awesome games that are hard to play legitimately at the moment. Heck; they could even do classic collection(s) of the older SMT games, similar to what Castlevania has been getting. A few quality of life additions, and doing official english translations for the first time could seems like it would be a solid pitch. EDIT: Also, bringing Vanillaware's games to Steam would be pretty great too. Atlus has a lot of relatively small potential investments they could do with their older releases, that don't require full blown remakes.
@@DragonKingX78 I mean yeah ideally; but that's also a significantly bigger time and money investment. But even if you did get remakes; something like a classics collection of the original older games would still be good to have
I remember when Tokyo Mirage Sessions came out right before Persona 5. And that game was pretty good. But Metaphor ReFantazio is SO much better imo. I am VERY excited to see what Atlus is going to do with Persona 6. By far they have been the most consistent JRPG machines (with Square Enix following right after.)
Also, the mentioning of Devil Summoner in Metaphor is a nice indicator that they might bring those games out. If the Radou's games have success they might do a new Devil Summoner game or even remake the very first one. And I also don't know until at what point they might try the Soul Hackers formula with a remake or a remaster of the first one as well and if it has success then a new game Idk. They can remake the first one... Maybe tweek the story a bit, give a better story and focus on the development of the characters... Idk If successfull, instead of giving numbers for a new game, they can just give names like they did before... Instead of Soul Hackers 3 if that remaster or remake has success they can call it for example Soul Hackers: Nexus... With the help of chatgpt: Soul Hackers: Nexus - "Nexus" evokes a meeting point of energies or realities, which could explore the idea of multiple realities or intertwined spiritual planes. Or Soul Hackers: Fracture - "Fracture" brings the idea of a rupture or division, potentially exploring new conflicts, such as alternative dimensions or a fractured reality However, with sales being below the expectations of Atlus for Soul Hackers 2 they might call it a day and focus instead in later years on a new Metaphor game.
If they did a Soul Hackers remake of the first one, maybe that could be called... Soul Hackers: Reincarnation "Reincarnation" hints at bringing the original game back to life in a new form, with a touch of the game’s spiritual theme. This title both nods to the original and signals to players that it's a faithful yet refreshed experience.
@@joaochanoca3317yeah the first game Shin Megami Tensei Devil Summoner Tho I would also like a remaster of the second game, Devil Summoner Soul Hackers, the second game was pretty good, I prefer the first game Shin Megami Tensei Devil Summoner over its sequel Devul Summoner Soul Hackers Soul Hackers isnt a series btw, Devil Summoner is a series, a remaster of Devil Summoner Soul Hackers would still be Devil Summoner, its a sequel to Devil Summoner so no it isnt the first game Even all of Soul Hackers 2's artbooks and interviews actively called it a Devil Summoner game Btw all Devil Summoner games focus on spiritualism
I think P6 is next because it's way past time for it now, ik some are gonna say P5 X but it's to late for that game, they waited way to long it's long past time to move on. I also would love a sequel to metaphor. In terms of any smaller releases ? I'd say remaster of both raidou kuzunoha games.
I will go out of the ball park, Persona 1 remake for the 30th ani in 2026, very out of the ball take but as we spoke on my pod, it is in the cards of the creator.
I hope we get a complete edition for metaphor to the switch 2- with some extra content, like golden/royal etc. Then, I wouldnt mind seeing a Persona like sci-fi.
I think they will have DLC for Metaphor eventually. It would be cool to have the three Velvet Room attendants (Elizabeth, Margaret, and Lavenza) as a special boss. Wishful thinking? Sure. But id love to see it
Having enhanced versions of Final Fantasy XV and Persona 5 released about a year after the initial release has helped me go over to waiting at least a year before buying a game.
I dunno im kinda glad i played the original smt 5 before vengence only thing i felt robbed off was buying the dlc with is something i wont do anymore for them unless its the enhanced version already If they keep making enhanced versions like smt 5 did (adding new characters, new areas, new story, new music and having a completely different scenario) then i will be fine for them to keep making it
I would say next in the pipeline will be, Persona 5 phantom X localisation, P4 remake and Persona 6. I would really like to see some ports of the games stuck on the DS/3DS I would love to play them on the Steam deck.
What would they even do for a p4 remake other than making it look nicer? The only thing p4's gameplay is missing compared to reload and p5 is shifting/baton passing which is hardly essential
Metaphor showed me how new IP is what I really want from developpers now, tired of remasters and remakes playing it safe with nostalgy. For real new things with creative ideas is what create anticipation from me.
Metaphor is not new IP, is new Megaten who fuse things from Persona, SMT, and Etrian Odyssey. They played very safe with Metaphor, because this game dont invented any new mechanics, just copied Social Sim from Persona, Press Turn battle system from SMT, and job classes and even one dungeon from Etr Ian Odyssey. The true new IP from Atlus it was something like Catherine, Radiant Historia or Maken X, a games from diffirent genre than RPG, with fresh ideas. Metaphor its just Digital Devil Saga on steroids.
@@Shrimp972 It's marketing BS for casuals / Persona fans like you. Metaphor it's not NEW IP, it is very safe game who borrows and mixed elements from Persona, SMT and Etrian Odyssey (there is even 1:1 copy paste dungeon from EO in Metaphor), so it's just new Megaten without SMT in name like Digital Devil Saga or Soul Hackers 2.
I think the most obvious answer is that there's going to be a remaster of a PS2 game. And if we're still really far away from Persona 6 then maybe another remake
Theres no way were that far from 6 imo, just because its been 8 years and all the P studio have done in that time is Royal, a remake, and I think they did Tactica? So an enhanced port, a remake, and a low budget spin off is just cheap side projects buying time.
I feel fairly confident that the next release will be some form of Metaphor DLC, then Persona 6, then Persona 4: Rerun. Edit: Someone else said "Persona 4 Rewind", and I do think that name is better.
Porting Persona Q to switch... Pulling out a combo discount Persona Tactica, Q and Q2. Future? Radou games, P1 and 2 remake or remaster, P6. Maybe a Persona Q3 after Persona 6 gets out. A crossover between 5 and 6. I think that Atlus is fully invested in the next Persona. Shin Megami Tensei 3 remake for sure afterwards. And in the meanwhile Persona 1 and 2 will come out and something like a Persona Q Origins can come out. A Trio of Persona Q for sure at least. Releasing Persona Q3 with Persona 6 is a nice time to port the other games. And in that time Switch 2 will most likely already be out. Maybe they will port the Q games to Pc, don't see them getting ports to Ps5, they are not that type of games to be there.
I think that P5X global version will definitely come soon and a console version will probably also come, not only is it super Well received, especially for a gacha game. but like it or not, a gacha game done right is basically an infinite money glitch
Yeah I do think persona 6 is going to be the next game cuz I just have that feeling and as for metaphor getting spin-offs I can see it happen and as for metaphor I do think a sequel is coming however I have a feeling it's going to be like how persona is like it's going to be new characters a new world a new story I mean realistically that's how I see it
I would love to have a mobile port of P5R. The game makes so much sense for mobile, just imagine playing some Persona on the go. Not sure if it's realistic though as it would maybe take away from the player base of P5X when it releases worldwide.
THE MOMENT I SEE THAT ATLUS LOGO AT THE SWITCH 2 PRESENTATION IM GOIN FERAL I'll buy Persona 3 Reload, Metaphor ReFantazio, and Soul Hackers 2 on Switch 2 with all DLC included on the cartridge.
Studio Zero can take another set of time to work on their nect game so you won't hear them for a while while the other two sister studios expect games Team Maniax - rumor Megami Tensei PS2 Remasters, Etrian Odyssey VI and Eiji Ishida's produced games P-Studio - Persona 5: The Phantom X Japanese Release and Western localization, Persona 6 and other Persona games currently in development.
P3 needed a remake. P4 doesn't. Part of the charm of P4 and P4G is the old retro almost plastic look to it. It is part of the vibe. P3 needed a remake due to too many bad mechanics and outdated features that needed a modern revision. P4 is fine with that.
More remake need SMT IV than Persona 4 (stuck on 3DS, and after closing E-Shop this game is nearly impossible to buy, especially in Europe), or even SMT 1-2, and original Devil Summoner who are still only in Japan. But due to fact Atlus is now part of Sega, and Sega prioritetize money, thats why P4 get remake, instead really outdated or unavalaible on modern platforms SMT games. Sega practically outside of Sonic & Yakuza don't making remasters / remakes games who are older than PS3 (pre Sammy era), and they had A LOT of games who need that (Sakura Wars 1-5, Shining Force 1-3, Phantasy Star 1-4, Skies of Arcadia, Valkyria Chronicles 3, Shinobi PS2, AM2 games etc.), and they doing absolutely nothing. Only safe franchises like Sonic & Yakuza & Persona.
As a fellow dumbass with expectations, clearly P6 is the next major release(copium). Fr tho, I think some sort of dlc is probably on the way for metaphor. I feel like atlus really needs to do something with their older smt titles cuz they are ripe to port or remake. Theres also etrian odyssey. On the highly likely spectrum we could get trauma center or devil survivor ports or new games but thats just wishful thinking😂
What game do you think is next for ATLUS?
Hopefully a DDS1+2 HD remaster collection, I am sure Raidou is getting something, maybe a SMT5 spinoff or direct sequel. I am sure Persona 6 is right around the corner.
devid lets by real p6 and p5x global version is realistic wath we see from atlus

@@Shrimp972 It's marketing BS for casuals / Persona fans like you. Metaphor it's not NEW IP, it is very safe game who borrows and mixed elements from Persona, SMT and Etrian Odyssey (there is even 1:1 copy paste dungeon from EO in Metaphor), so it's just new Megaten without SMT in name like Digital Devil Saga or Soul Hackers 2.
I think the most obvious answer is that there's going to be a remaster of a PS2 game. And if we're still really far away from Persona 6 then maybe another remake
Theres no way were that far from 6 imo, just because its been 8 years and all the P studio have done in that time is Royal, a remake, and I think they did Tactica? So an enhanced port, a remake, and a low budget spin off is just cheap side projects buying time.
I see a metaphor Refantazio arena but not a dancing all night cause i definitely don't see louis dancing about/for anything
I feel fairly confident that the next release will be some form of Metaphor DLC, then Persona 6, then Persona 4: Rerun.
Edit: Someone else said "Persona 4 Rewind", and I do think that name is better.
Porting Persona Q to switch... Pulling out a combo discount Persona Tactica, Q and Q2.
Future? Radou games, P1 and 2 remake or remaster, P6. Maybe a Persona Q3 after Persona 6 gets out. A crossover between 5 and 6.
I think that Atlus is fully invested in the next Persona. Shin Megami Tensei 3 remake for sure afterwards.
And in the meanwhile Persona 1 and 2 will come out and something like a Persona Q Origins can come out.
A Trio of Persona Q for sure at least. Releasing Persona Q3 with Persona 6 is a nice time to port the other games.
And in that time Switch 2 will most likely already be out. Maybe they will port the Q games to Pc, don't see them getting ports to Ps5, they are not that type of games to be there.
Still waiting for a DDS1+2 HD remaster collection.
I just want soul hackers 2 on the switch already
I hope instead of a definitive version of Metaphor, we get a beefy dlc for the base game, similar to how the Xenoblade series has handled dlc
Ronde Remake or Majin Tensei 4
I think is the rumored Raidou remaster and Persona 6.
Raidou remaster will be flop due to how bad combat those games have and very outdated graphic. Raidou need REMAKE to sell.
I think that P5X global version will definitely come soon and a console version will probably also come, not only is it super Well received, especially for a gacha game. but like it or not, a gacha game done right is basically an infinite money glitch
Yeah I do think persona 6 is going to be the next game cuz I just have that feeling and as for metaphor getting spin-offs I can see it happen and as for metaphor I do think a sequel is coming however I have a feeling it's going to be like how persona is like it's going to be new characters a new world a new story I mean realistically that's how I see it
P4 Rerun 💯
I want P6, but I would go buck wild for a P4 remake
I would love to have a mobile port of P5R. The game makes so much sense for mobile, just imagine playing some Persona on the go. Not sure if it's realistic though as it would maybe take away from the player base of P5X when it releases worldwide.
THE MOMENT I SEE THAT ATLUS LOGO AT THE SWITCH 2 PRESENTATION IM GOIN FERAL
I'll buy Persona 3 Reload, Metaphor ReFantazio, and Soul Hackers 2 on Switch 2 with all DLC included on the cartridge.
While I do have issues with soul Hackers 2, I do think it should be on at least one Nintendo system.
Studio Zero can take another set of time to work on their nect game so you won't hear them for a while while the other two sister studios expect games
Team Maniax - rumor Megami Tensei PS2 Remasters, Etrian Odyssey VI and Eiji Ishida's produced games
P-Studio - Persona 5: The Phantom X Japanese Release and Western localization, Persona 6 and other Persona games currently in development.
Megami Tensei PS 2 remakes....do you mean Shin Megami or just Megami?
@DragonKingX78 Megami since we have already Nocturne Remaster, a mainline SMT entry DDS and Raidou are Megami Tensei spinoffs/sub series.
I just want atlus to make a new devil survivor so bad
I hope they come back to make more spinoffs in the future instead of just persona
Yeah, really sick of Persona especially it's spinoffs. Still hoping for more SMT and SMT spinoff games.
I need p4 remaster and p6.
I really want smt IV on modern consoles now idc how they do it! Just do it ! Lol
I want SMT1, 2, if..., 4, 4A, and SJ on modern consoles.
What’s next? We enjoying metaphor for 4-500 hours lol.. another game ain’t coming anytime soon!! But I definitely can’t wait for persona 6
Next is the jack frost dlc or another persona spin off
I am sure we will be getting more Persona spinoff games but what kind of "Jack frost DLC" and for what game(s)?
@DragonKingX78 jack frost dlc was announced for Metaphor refantazio.
ATLUS!!! PORT SHIN MEGAMI TENSEI IV TO PC.. AND MY LIFE IS YOURS!!!!!!!
Wait producer or director? Pretty sure hashino is the director.
Jack Bros Reloaded
How about Jack Bros 2?
P3 needed a remake. P4 doesn't. Part of the charm of P4 and P4G is the old retro almost plastic look to it. It is part of the vibe. P3 needed a remake due to too many bad mechanics and outdated features that needed a modern revision. P4 is fine with that.
More remake need SMT IV than Persona 4 (stuck on 3DS, and after closing E-Shop this game is nearly impossible to buy, especially in Europe), or even SMT 1-2, and original Devil Summoner who are still only in Japan. But due to fact Atlus is now part of Sega, and Sega prioritetize money, thats why P4 get remake, instead really outdated or unavalaible on modern platforms SMT games. Sega practically outside of Sonic & Yakuza don't making remasters / remakes games who are older than PS3 (pre Sammy era), and they had A LOT of games who need that (Sakura Wars 1-5, Shining Force 1-3, Phantasy Star 1-4, Skies of Arcadia, Valkyria Chronicles 3, Shinobi PS2, AM2 games etc.), and they doing absolutely nothing. Only safe franchises like Sonic & Yakuza & Persona.
I just want EO6
We already know. Persona 1 remake and 4 remake amd that ps2 hd remastered. Forgot what it called lmao
raidou
I'll give you a hint. Its persona 6
Metaphor strikers
As a fellow dumbass with expectations, clearly P6 is the next major release(copium). Fr tho, I think some sort of dlc is probably on the way for metaphor. I feel like atlus really needs to do something with their older smt titles cuz they are ripe to port or remake. Theres also etrian odyssey. On the highly likely spectrum we could get trauma center or devil survivor ports or new games but thats just wishful thinking😂
hope Person 6 won't pander like Metaphor did :/..
Of persona 6 is coming 2025 then its going against gta 6 both with 666 numbers 😂that aint good
