Persona 5 is in development, making progress

[Blacksite]

Team Persona producer Katsura Hashino has said that he and the rest of Team Persona are currently focused on the next core installment of the Persona series.

Speaking in the next issue of Famitsu, Hashino says that he has submitted sketches for Persona 5, and that the game as a whole is making progress. No other details about the future title have been provided.

In non-Persona news, Hashino also admits that he is in the middle of a secret collaborative project that is still a ways away from being officially revealed. Cryptic, sure, but exciting nonetheless.

Thanks, Andriasang.

I was beginning to think we weren't going to hear anything so this is good news.

Yes, bring on the Persona news, any idea if it will be a full release or just a hand-held version?

[Blacksite]

Probably a full release on the PS3, given that they worked on Catherine.

Sweet hope we can name our protagonist and choose genders again. Not that it really matters. Just thought it was cool.

[Fon]

It better be a full console title and not a handheld game.

I can't wait to see what they have planned for Persona 5! This is excellent news.
