Has Persona 4 Already Been Remade?

Renowned *Persona* YouTuber ScrambledFaz stirred the pot by sharing a screenshot on X, revealing that the domain "p4re.jp" was registered on March 20th. Interestingly, "p3re.jp" was registered just months before the announcement of *Persona 3*'s remake. This intriguing move has fans buzzing with theories about an upcoming *Persona 4* remake.

Originally released in 2008, *Persona 4* was exclusive to the PlayStation 3 and 4. In 2012, *Persona 4 Golden* hit the shelves, fully ported to the PlayStation Vita and PC. This version boasted enhanced graphics and new content, including an entire new town and the beloved romanceable character, Marie.

However, *Persona 4 Golden* falls short of being a full-fledged remake, much like *Persona 3 Portable*. Released in 2009 for the PSP, it featured a new protagonist and an additional character, Theodore, in the Velvet Room. These enhancements were significant, but they pale in comparison to the comprehensive overhaul seen in *Persona 3: Reload*.

What Would a Persona 4 Remake Look Like?

If the rumored *Persona 4* remake follows in the footsteps of *Persona 3 Reload*, fans have much to look forward to. The charming 2008 graphics of *Persona 4* could receive a much-needed facelift, featuring new character portraits and animated cutscenes.

Moreover, a remake could introduce additional side quests and enriched character interactions, allowing players to deepen their social links. *Persona 4 Golden* introduced Okima City, with activities like visiting the cinema or coffee shop. A remake might add even more depth to the city's exploration.

When Should We Expect a Persona 4 Remake?

In 2024, a credible Sega leaker hinted that a *Persona 4* remake is indeed in development. However, don't hold your breath for an immediate release. If we're to gauge from the timeline of *Persona 3: Reload*, an announcement could surface as early as June, mirroring the June 2023 reveal at the Xbox Summer Showcase.

While Atlus has been teasing *Persona 6* for years, it's been nearly a decade since *Persona 5*'s release, and we're still without a confirmed launch date for the next installment. Rumors of a *Persona 4* remake might delay *Persona 6* further, causing frustration among some fans who argue that *Persona 4* doesn't require a remake. Let's hope that if a *Persona 4* remake is on the horizon, it won't significantly impact the development of *Persona 6*, which is rumored to have been in the works for some time now.

That wraps up everything we currently know about the potential for *Persona 4* to receive a remake, possibly titled *Persona 4 Reload*.
