Most likely since Hashino & Co. are working on a different game.
Unless they get someone else to direct it (Please not the Tokyo Mirage Sessions guys).

With how big Persona 5 is as a game, in terms of both content and likelihood of getting milked the way P4 was, I'm not expecting Persona 6 any time soon. And honestly, I dunno if I want it within the next few years in the first place. I'm happy with Persona 5 and I'd like them to take their time with Persona 6 to make it something really unique and different from the last few games. It's time for another series overhaul imo and I don't want them to rush it. I don't want it to take 9 years if it doesn't have to but I don't feel like I need a new Persona game in the next two or three years.
Considering the P5 engine is using a modified version a gamebryo, an engine that isn't even officially supported by the creators anymore, I can see why.The SMT5 team had a quote that was not flattering to the P5 engine, he said something about development going much faster or smoother with UE4 than P5s engine.
P5 engine isn't gamebyro. https://www.destructoid.com/persona-5-uses-atlus-internal-engine-210273.phtmlConsidering the P5 engine is using a modified version a gamebryo, an engine that isn't even officially supported by the creators anymore, I can see why.
Catherine used Gamebryo and Atlus called it an "engine test" which is where the confusion on this comes from. What they really meant was they were just seeing what they could do with PS3 hardware, not testing the actual P5 engine.
I can see a B Team working on Persona 6 using the Persona 5 engine. ATLUS usually makes games in 2's.
I see where you're going with this. Definitely going to keep an eye on any announcements :PI think there's going to be a big enough gap that any indie who wants to make a Persona-like before Persona 6 comes out will have plenty of time to do so.
Persona 3 came out in 2007 (2006 for Japan). Persona 4 came out in 2008. Persona 5 came out in 2017 (2016 for Japan).
Will Persona 6 take as long to come out? I want to believe no. I think, like a lot of Japanese devs, Atlus got hit hard by the introduction of HD consoles, and development tools that weren't suited for them, unlike the West that had been making games for PC since forever. Since last gen, Japan seems to have recovered by succeeding in making their own engines, but also thanks to the introduction of Japanese support for Unreal Engine 4.
So with that in mind, I have to believe that Atlus has the tools and the know-how to make Persona 6 in a reasonable amount of time.
Right?
