Persona and Shin Megami Tensei series developer Atlus recently updated the job listings on their official recruitment homepage. As spotted by Game*Spark, the company appears to be looking to add a new producer to the Persona series development team.
According to the latest listing, titled “Producer (Persona Team),” Atlus’ Persona team needs a person who has previous experience with console and AAA games to oversee future game production and project management. The company is looking for a candidate with experience working in a team of over 30 people. Numerous listings for the same position can be found across major Japanese recruitment sites.
Atlus released Persona 3 Reload in February this year and has yet to announce any other Persona-related releases, but the studio seems to be preparing something. Persona team’s chief director Kazuhisa Wada has previously commented that their mid-to-long-term plan very much includes new numbered entries to the series (source: IGN), foreshadowing a potential Persona 6. Of course, fans will have to wait until Atlus is ready to make an official announcement – although that hasn’t stopped recent social media discussions about what Persona title should be made next.
