Persona 5 har fået masser af succes allerede, og til trods for at Atlus var sikre på deres produkt, er den internationalle bevågenhed fortsat overraskende for udvikleren. Netop på grund af denne bevågenhed tænker Atlus nu allerede på hvor serien skal hen næste gang. Atlus-chefen, Naoto Hiraoka, har eksempelvis udgivet et jobopslag (oversat af <a href ="http://personacentral.com/atlus-discusses-desire-to-grow-within-the-industry-persona-6-needing -to-surpass-person-5/">PersonaCentral </a>), hvor studiet leder efter kreativt personale der skal skabe Persona 6. Her er hvad Hiraoka skriver:
"Unfortunately, the hurdles to overcome [in game development] increase every year.
Thanks to the large amount of support we received for "Persona 5," we have gotten a sense of accomplishment. But we can't stop there. When we created "Persona 4," there was pressure that it had to exceed "Persona 3." Now, we will have to create a "6" which exceeds "5." However, exceeding "5" will be difficult with the current staff. I would like to surpass this tall hurdle with everyone who joins us in this recruitment. The workplace is perfect for those who want a creative challenge when it comes to bringing games to the world".
Så de gode nyheder er, at Atlus er motiveret til at fortsætte serien.
