Summary
A development logo forPersona 6has been shared by a known Atlus insider. Fans have been looking forward toPersona 6since before the dust settled onPersona 5, which initially released in 2016, and got a re-release in 2019. Those familiar with Atlus, which is notoriously tight-lipped when it comes to upcoming games, have taken to trying to find hidden meanings in every announcement by the company.
Fans have been wondering when they may hear more information aboutPersona 6, including when the title will be officially revealed by Atlus. Earlier this May, Midori shared their thoughts onwhen to expect aPersona 6announcement, using some of the most anticipated gaming events of the year as potential benchmarks. A likely time forPersona 6’s announcement appears to be The Game Awards in December, which is when many people also expect to hear more about Switch 2, a rumored platform for the game.
Atlus insider andPersonaleaker Midori shared what they claim to bePersona 6’s placeholder logo. The image shows a lowercase “p” interlinked with the number six, as if the numbers are part of a chain, or potentially alluding to an infinity symbol.

Persona 6 Development Logo Could Reveal More
This is not the first time Midori has shareddetails aboutPersona 6, including the game’s green theme. Although much of the material shared is subject to change, and Midori states that this is not the final logo, pictures of the placeholder logo fromPersona 5’s announcement show similarities to the version of the title released in 2016.
Personafans who did not expect to see news about the upcoming release so soon are shocked, and one of the most exciting things to these gamers is the green background and black text of the photo. ThePersonagames typically use colors to indicate tone and themefor each release. Using examples from the modernPersonaseries,Persona 5used red to emphasize its rebellious tone and themes centered around anger and corruption.Persona 4used yellow, which emphasized its optimistic outlook despite hardships, andPersona 3used blue to highlight the melancholy surrounding its atmosphere.
Although the green theme of the game was previously leaked, fans are excited to see a visual to go along with their expectations. Previously, gamers used a popular “paint bucket theory,” looking at the bucket of green paint fromPersona’s 25th anniversary art, which stood suspiciously at the end of a line of series protagonists. Deeper dives into thecolor theory of thePersonafranchisesuggest that greed and envy may be key themes, but the dedicated fanbase will keep guessing until Atlus shows something official.
