With the reveal of P3P & P4G ports release dates, the Persona 25th Anniversary Project has now completed

It really makes no sense to have this announcement taking a new spot, so my new headcanon is that their original plans collapsed and had to keep their word for a final announcement lol
Even by Atlus standards the way they built up to these announcements is fucking awful.
But Atlus is also known for making big deals out of nothing when it comes to marketing so... who really knows.
It's possible. There being no game announcements at the concert where there's usually game announcements that just so happens to line up with what the final big announcement on the website was going to be is... suspicious, at the very least.

So the announcement of the ports and the announcement of the release date for said ports count as different reveals??? Lol
Would be pretty neat to get the PSP versions of Persona 2 localised and remastered on modern platforms.
It's hard to tell whether the marketing team at Atlus merely is tone deaf and doesn't understand the kind of expectations they built up or if they for some reason actively enjoy trolling their fans.
It was announced as a year-long event starting last September. Why it needed a full year will forever be a mystery.

Happy anniversary.
Bet y'all who were joking about the next announcement only being something like merch feel mighty silly at the moment.

I love that they didn't bother to keep the English page updated. They didn't even add the announcements of P5R, P3P and P4G.
That explains why I kept sawing that Anniversary thread pop up from time to time. I never bothered to check since I figured any big announcements would get their own thread anyway. And there never were any.
Well... RIP to everyone waiting for today's concert in hopes of a big reveal. Not that release dates aren't nice, but... yeah.
I've been making fun of the Persona Anniversary Project since the beginning because I knew they would fill a bunch of slots with useless announcements and Japan-only stuff nobody is ever going to see, but man, there's something just effortlessly pathetic about capping off the whole thing with the release dates of a pair of already-announced remasters.
Like they knew they would get a ton of free marketing for this shit and just leaned into it as much as possible.

It definitely won't be that far away. Probably 2024 with ReFantasy being Atlus's big 2023 game. That would give it 4/5 years if they only started after P5R.
Winter 2014Glad I kept my hype in check. I still feel Phantom Pain from this:
When they said they were gonna have all those announcements, I instantly thought I should not keep up with each one because they're sure to disappoint... yeah
i mean, persona 5 came out 6 years ago (in japan) in 2016. people are thirsty. we've gotten spinoffs but people kinda wanna move on
Something fuckin real annoying about this shit. Like fuck just stop with these announcements you do all the fuckin time. Treating announcements of previously announced ports as some big thing? Fuck off.
it was like what 8 years between persona 4 and 5? and Atlus has been making other games. plus, you had some of the Persona people move on to their new IP. so they likely have to transition into having someone else run it, like they did SMT.
you can't have sequels to every IP and also have new IPs. not in 2022.
Gotta wonder if the long rumoured Microsoft purchase made them pull back any persona 6 announcements
how can you release a patch for a game that d̴̢̈́ȯ̸̖̀e̷̹̓s̷̼̆̔͝n̸̺͖̟̄'̴̨̾t̸͍͑̈́̕ ̷̟̠̬͑e̵͙̓ẍ̶̞̠ȉ̶̧̹͕̑s̵̙̱̀̊̈́t̶͓͛̀?
It's quite masterful IMO. Like they managed to top the Platinum 4 in terms of utter nothingness.
