What to Expect From Atlus in 2022
Since the release of Persona 5 in 2017, developer and publisher Atlus has seen a huge surge in popularity. The JRPG powerhouse developer has since gone on to release more major titles such as the expanded release of Persona 5 Royal, the action RPG spin-off Persona 5 Strikers, and the latest entry in its long-running Shin Megami Tensei series, Shin Megami Tensei 5.
With Atlus' latest boom in popularity, the studio has come very far since Persona 5's western release in April 2017, with bold moves such as making Shin Megami Tensei 5 as its first simultaneous worldwide release. 2022 promises to be one of the biggest years yet for Atlus fans, as the studio prepares to reveal new IP, announce long-awaited ports, and celebrate more of its beloved franchises and teams.

In 2021, Atlus announced that for the Persona franchise's 25th anniversary it would be making a series of announcements. So far, these announcements have ranged from merchandising to the reveal of Persona 4 Arena Ultimax making its way to PC, Nintendo Switch, and PlayStation 4. These announcements are said to last all the way up to September 2022, so it's fair to assume fans will be seeing a lot more of these in the coming months. As for what they will be? It's hard to say right now, although it might not be unfair to assume that a port of Persona 4 Golden will be among them.
Ever since its port to PC in June 2020, there have been many rumors and reports that Persona 4 Golden will make its way to platforms such as Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 4, and while these rumors aren't completely without substance, the fact that Atlus has already announced ports for Arena Ultimax makes them appear somewhat odd.
