The Persona series is more popular than ever, and two classic entries are coming back to commemorate that success.
Publisher Atlus announced last week that Persona 3 Portable and Persona 4 Golden will launch on Jan. 19, 2023, for PS4, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. Additionally, both games will also be available for Xbox Game Pass subscribers on that date. PS5 owners, worry not – both titles will be playable via backward compatibility.
The release history of these titles is almost comically intricate. Persona 3 Portable (better known as P3P) originally came out on PSP in 2009 and was a light reimaging of the PS2 release from 2006. Meanwhile, Persona 4 Golden released in 2012 for the PlayStation Vita and was an enhanced port of the 2008 PS2 version.

More Persona goodness is on the way, too. Several months back, Atlus revealed that Persona 5 Royal will launch on Friday, Oct. 21, for Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam. Yup, the former PlayStation exclusive will be available on pretty much every platform out there.
An all-new Persona spinoff is also in the works, though it’s not a full-fledged sequel like many fans were hoping.
