According to a new rumor, the 2023 Xbox Showcase could be home to the reveal of thePersona 3 Remakegame.Persona 3 Remakehas not been announced in an official capacity, but various leaks and rumors have suggested that the project is in the works at Atlus and simply awaiting an official reveal.
For some, the timing of the potentialPersona 3remake may seem a bit strange. After all,Persona 3 Portablewas just recently ported to non-PlayStation platforms, so one would think franchise fans have had their fill of the game. However, it’s possible thatPersona 3 Remakecould be making substantial enough changes that even those who recently played through another version of the game may be convinced to pick up the new version.

It remains to be seen if thePersona 3remake exists, but if it’s real, fans may be finding out about sooner rather than later. According to ResetEra member Im A Hero Too, who has leakedPersonanews in the past, aPersona 3remake announcement could be happening at theXbox Showcase on June 11. They hinted as much, saying anyone interested inPersonashould tune in to the event and that it will be “Evoke-itive,” a likely nod to the Evokers featured inPersona 3.
IfPersona 3 Remakeis announced at the Xbox Showcase, it may come as a shock to longtime fans of the franchise. WhilePersonahas recently branched out to other platforms, it was primarily a PlayStation-exclusive series for years. There once was a time when it would be unheard of for any of themain seriesPersonagames to appear on Xbox, let alone be revealed at an Xbox-branded event instead of a PlayStation one.
Interestingly, PlayStation is hosting its own showcase soon as well. Whereas the Xbox Showcase is happening June 11, PlayStation will be hosting its event on May 24.Spider-Man 2seems like a lock for the PlayStation Showcase, though it’s otherwise anyone’s guess as to what will be featured at the event. However, if therumors surrounding thePersona 3remakeare true, it seems that fans now know one game thatwon’tbe there.
While hardcorePersonafans may be excited about a potentialPersona 3remake, others may be more interested inPersona 6. Unfortunately, Atlus still has yet to revealPersona 6to the masses, though therunaway success ofPersona 5means a new main series entry in the JRPG franchise is a virtual guarantee.
Persona 3 Remakeis rumored to be in development.
