The Context
The gaming community has been eagerly waiting for the release of Persona 5 on PC for a long time. Speculations and rumors have been circulating for years, but as yet, there has been no official announcement of the game’s release. Nevertheless, here is a breakdown of what is known so far about the possibility of Persona 5 finally coming to Steam.
What is Persona 5?
Persona 5 is an action-packed role-playing video game released by Atlus, which became an instant hit when it was first released in 2017. The game’s protagonist is a high school student who lives in Tokyo, encountering various supernatural events and supernatural enemies that he and his classmates have to overcome.
Rumors and Speculations
Many gaming enthusiasts hoped that Persona 5 would inevitably be released on PC eventually. And indeed, rumors began to swirl that the game was coming to Steam after the official Persona website was found to include a coding pattern that suggests a possible Steam release.
These rumors were further fueled when, in 2019, a Steam logo was discovered in the game’s files, leading some to believe that an official announcement of the game’s release was imminent. Unfortunately, nothing came of these rumors.
What We Know So Far
In 2020, an insider source notified an online forum that Atlus was still considering the possibility of releasing Persona 5 on PC. Could this mean that the wait is finally over and that we will be able to enjoy the game on Steam soon?
It is worth noting that, while this news is encouraging, there has been no official statement from Atlus about the possible release of Persona 5 on PC. However, in the past, the company has released several other games on PC, including Persona 4 Golden, suggesting that there is a chance that Persona 5 will follow suit.
Why the Delay?
While there are no official explanations from Atlus, it is presumed that the delay in Persona 5’s launch on PC might be due to the company’s focus on its console-oriented strategy. Nevertheless, as the gaming industry moves toward a more cross-platform-friendly future, it seems reasonable to assume that Persona 5’s anticipated release on PC is only a matter of time.
Conclusion
All in all, the gaming community continues to hope for Persona 5’s release on PC. But until an official announcement is made, we will have to keep speculating. We can, however, hope that the information we have collected so far will give gamers some insight into the exciting possibility of finally being able to play Persona 5 on their preferred platform.
