A new collaboration for Persona’s 30th anniversary is the best evidence yet that the leaked remake of the first game is indeed real, as if there were any doubt.

Yesterday, an absolute bombshell was dropped on Persona fans when a gameplay trailer for an unannounced remake of the first game in the series, apparently subtitled Be Your True Mind, was leaked online. The footage confirmed it’s another Persona 5-style remake like P3 and P4 have got, but with a unique street art style to it and a darker atmosphere.

While it was already incredibly easy to believe the remake was real based on how much work it’d take to make such a detailed fake, and since Persona 3 Reload leaked in a similar way, a new piece of official collaborative art has added even more fuel to the fire. I can’t imagine it would even try, but Atlus will have a really hard time denying the remake is in the works.

Earlier today, the official Twitter page for Algernon Product, a Japanese manufacturer and distributor, shared a collaboration announcement for Persona’s 30th anniversary. The collab features art of the original Persona protagonist by Mochizuki Kei, which is briefly shown off in a short trailer.

It's been two decades since this emo masterpiece first reared its head.

So far, so normal, since Persona’s 30th anniversary has mostly felt like collaborations and merchandise . What makes it interesting, however, is that the design featured in the short trailer is incredibly reminiscent of the updated look that the protagonist has in the remake, as you can see in this tweet from Bleach20211 .
