An update to a domain that appears to be for the rumored Persona 4 remake suggests that the game may be close to getting an official announcement at the upcoming Xbox Games Showcase.
A mysterious domain for the web address “p4re.jp” was registered on March 20, 2025. The registrant’s name is not available at their request. It was then updated just today, suggesting that the rumored Persona 4 remake may be close to receiving an official announcement from Sega and Atlus. Details regarding the domain can be seen below.
It’s worth noting that the domain for Persona 3 Reload’s official website followed a similar pattern. It was registered on March 15, 2023, with the game receiving a subsequent announcement at the Xbox Games Showcase on June 11, 2023. Going by the similar date of registration for the ‘p4re.jp’ domain and today’s update, it’s highly likely that the Persona 4 remake will receive an announcement at the upcoming Xbox Games Showcase on June 8, 2025.
In a recent video on his YouTube channel, known insider and content creator eXtas1s had mentioned hearing that the rumored Persona 4 remake will be released day one on Xbox Game Pass, just like Persona 3 Reload and Persona 5 Tactica before it. He referred to the title as “Persona 4 Reload”.
Earlier, Persona 4 vocalist Shihoko Hirata had revealed that she had been recording a theme song for an unannounced game. She shared an Instagram post from MIT Studio in Tokyo, a location known for recording Persona soundtracks, including Persona 5 Strikers. Fans also noticed that she liked comments referencing Persona 4, hinting that her work could be connected to the rumored remake. She described the recording process as challenging, expressing nervousness about the performance but maintaining a positive outlook. Furthermore, a known Persona and Sega leaker, Head on the Block (formerly Im A Hero Too), previously claimed that Persona 4 was set to receive a full remake.
