Summary
According to a recent leak,Persona 6will feature dual protagonists and a DLC that may allow players to take flight. These newPersona 6tidbits surfaced on a forum courtesy of a well-known Atlus leaker, who has a track record of sharing insider information about the upcoming mainline entry in thePersonaseries.
While the game hasn’t been officially announced, there’s been no shortage ofPersona 6rumors from various sources, including speculation about a possible release window. Since all this information is unofficial, nothing has been confirmed, and it should be taken with a grain of salt. However, considering the track record of these insiders regarding Atlus games, the leaked information is worth pondering, especially when multiple sources corroborate each other.
Persona 6 Will Feature Two Main Characters
The prominent leaker Head on the Block once again took to theResetEra forums to spill details aboutPersona 6concerning the game’s characters and DLC. According to Head on the Block,Persona 6will feature two main characters. One will have a name starting with “K,” while the other will begin with “S.” The leaker further mentioned that the game will allow players to control a woman, suggesting that the two main characters may represent different genders. However, shortly afterward, Head on the Block stated that “the main character is not a woman,” leaving everyone puzzled. In the same post, they commented that players would be unhappy with the quantity and type of planned DLCs.
Head on the Block mentions that the game will have numerous DLCs for customizing, including one allowing players to fly. Assuming the leaked information is true, one may conclude that the two main characters will be male. Still,Persona 6will have DLC where players can control a female character outside and inside dungeons.Persona 3 FESwas the only mainline game in the series to offer the option of playing as both male and female protagonists, a feature removed in the remake. The producer ofPersona 3 Reloadexplained why there isno female protagonist in the game.
In the same forum, another user questioned what the color palette ofPersona 6would be, to which the leaker responded with green. Head on the Block stated that the game’s theme will be black and white, symbolizing two sides, with activities varying depending on day or night. Since then, no other leaker has corroborated Head on the Block’s claims, raising red flags about their information.
Meanwhile, Nate the Hate commented on the latest episode of the DirectXbox podcast thatPersona 6would arrive on Xbox, although he couldn’t confirm whether it would be a simultaneous release with the PlayStation version. He also mentioned that it’s unlikely for a mainline game of the scale ofPersona 6to come to Game Pass, but considering thatPersona 5 TacticaandPersona 3 Reloadare part of the service, anything is possible.
