Atlus Says Persona Fans Should Keep Fighting for Persona 5 on Switch

Persona 5 Royal launches in the West in a few months for PS4. But Nintendo Switch fans have been yearning for the game to come to the Switch. After all, Joker joined Super Smash Bros. Ultimate in Fighter Pass 1 and according to Atlus fans should keep fighting.

When speaking to IGN Communications Manager Ari Advincula said:

“You want what you want,” she explained, “and if you don't let us know it we’re never going to be able to make it.” Advincula said Atlus is listening and does see the desire for Persona 5 on Switch, saying “it’s important to always voice your opinion.”

Advincula encouraged fans to “keep telling us what you want,” saying she was fighting for it internally as well. However, it’s important to point out that she also said she’s obviously “not the decision-maker” in a situation like this despite being an “internal champion” for it, so this shouldn’t be taken as an indication of what is happening or could happen down the line.

We'll have to wait and see if it'll happen. Obviously Sony will have to agree to this. And Sony has been doubling down on exclusives to encourage gamers to purchase a PlayStation console.

The fifth installment has been a massive hit with fans. With many citing the game as one of the best RPGs this generation. As someone who played Persona 5 as a newcomer, I strongly agree. The title has an intricate story full of amazing characters and optional scenes. Not to mention the soundtrack and beautiful visuals.

Persona 5 Royal launches in the west this March 31st for PS4. The original game is now available for PS4.
