Previous Hints
In November 2015, Atlus issued a comment to Weekly Famitsu magazine following a poll for what franchises fans would like to see adapted into a “warriors” game. For the Persona series, the company stated: “It’d be interesting if we could make it one day.”
On the first day of the Persona Super Live 2019 concert, it was discovered that Koei Tecmo had sent a bouquet of flowers as a gift to the venue.
One of the bouquet of flowers sent to the Persona Super Live 2019 venue is from Japanese game company Koei Tecmo.
