Atlus Removes Two Additionally Added Persona 25th Anniversary Announcement Slots; 3 Remaining

Atlus Japan has sneakily updated the Persona 25th anniversary website, reducing the number of upcoming announcements to 3 instead of 5. For those unaware, the Japan Persona anniversary website was updated in April to house 2 additional announcements, making 9 in total. The announcements initially totaled 7, which is what it has returned to.

It is possible that these slots were accidentally added, but considering how it took several months for them to be removed, it’s more likely that the potential plans related to these veiled announcements fell through.

The 3 remaining announcement slots correlate to June 2022, an unknown time, and Autumn 2022.

Thanks to Megami Tensei fan @ScrambledFaz for sharing this information on Twitter:
