Xbox and Windows PC already have a number of Persona games, so when are we getting the main course?
While there's still no announcement in sight, the official Windows Twitter account has been caught in the act discussing Persona 5, which is rather odd considering the game hasn't been made available on any Microsoft platforms.
Here's the full exchange with a Persona fan:
Windows @Windows Replying to @XeronTokyo - Hard to believe it's been almost six years since Persona 5 was released in the US! How many times have you played through it since then, counting Royal of course?
Honestly, this could mean absolutely nothing, but we must agree with many others how weird it kind of is to see an official Microsoft account discussing a game that's not available on any of its platforms. If this is a teaser of sorts, it wouldn't necessarily be the first time.

With Persona 4 Golden released for PC in 2020, I could easily see a Persona 5 Royal port on PC happen. Increasingly in recent years PC has become this middle ground where console exclusive games come to.
I do wonder if there's more to it though given Persona 5 is leaving PS Plus Collection on May 11th:

Hope this is true, the more people that get to play this masterpiece the better.
Can't wait for Persona 6!
Would be great if P5 hits the Xbox ecosystem. Excited for the next instalment too
Only a little bit through ps3 emulation. Stopped playing when I heard the rumours it could come to xbox or PC
I dunno if it means anything, but I said when the Activision purchase was announced that if I were Phil Spencer, I would call Sony and we would have a niiice long talk about Final Fantasy, Persona, and other games that Sony has paid companies to keep off of Microsoft platforms for years. We would have this nice chat before I agreed to ever put another COD game on PSAnything.
If this hits Xbox before Switch….I can just see the vitriol already lol
@Dusk_Actual that would be quite the ruckus 😂
Sega or atlus acquisition confirmed
🤣
I bought a PS4 just to play P5R. It would be great if it came to xbox or PC, but I'm not starting over at this point.
@GunValkyrian lol yea it's my petty streak, but i woulda called PERSONALLY lol
@GunValkyrian Phil is denying sony future fallout, elder scrolls and doom games so I'm sure future final fantasy and persona games will stay on playstation or atleast for a lengthy timed period
Xbox already has a number of persona games? I must have missed that...
Man, what a weird business strategy is that: keeping potential customers from buying your products?! Persona 5 is not gonna sell many copies exclusively on Playstation, considering its basically "old". However, if it was re-released on Switch and Xbox, people would surely buy it, or even double dip! Help me out here, fellows: what are the plausible reasons for Atlus's hesitation??
@OldgamerDave Persona 5 and Persona 5 Royal have sold over 5 million copies on playstation, to put that into perspective, Scarlet Nexus only has 2 million players on playstation and xbox which it's also on gamepass, and more than Tales of Arise sales which was also on playstation and xbox. For some reason persona sells really well on playstation
Bet we get Persona 5 Strikers.
@UltimateOtaku91 Intriguing numbers, indeed. However, given Persona's broader potential audience, I still believe it'd make more sense to bring the series to other platforms besides Playstation. Or perhaps it's just my wishful thinking!
