ATLUS has officially announced the arrival of Persona 5 Royal, Persona 4 Golden and Persona 3 Portable on the Nintendo Switch.

The news was unveiled during the latest Nintendo Direct alongside an announcement video, confirming that with the exception of Persona 4 Golden, the titles will be also available on the Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Windows, PlayStation 5 and Steam, with Persona 5 Royal releasing first on October 21. Personal 5 Royal will include a previously released DLC included with the base game, while the other two games will be available in French, Italian, German and Spanish for the first time:

Persona 5 Royal: Forced to transfer to a high school in Tokyo, the protagonist has a strange dream. “You truly are a prisoner of fate. In the near future, ruin awaits you.” With the goal of “rehabilitation” looming overhead, he must save others from distorted desires by donning the mask of a Phantom Thief.

Persona 4 Golden: They say your soulmate will appear if you stare into a television set on a rainy night... This strange rumor slowly spreads through the rural town of Inaba, the protagonist’s new home, just as a chain of mysterious murders begin. As the protagonist and his teammates chase after the truth, they find themselves opening the door to another world.

Persona 3 Portable: If I say there’s an hour “hidden” between one day and the next...would you believe me? This unknown time is the “Dark Hour.” Unfamiliar stillness swallows the city, people turn into eerie coffins, and otherworldly monsters called Shadows swarm. One night, the protagonist is attacked by these Shadows. When all hope seems lost, the power of the heart, their Persona, is awakened.

Elsewhere in gaming, the creator of Sonic confirmed Michael Jackson wrote music for the third game's soundtrack.
