Grainy concept-art photos posted online appear to show Persona 6’s blond male lead and a black-haired female student, with leaked file names listing six likely party-member names.
ResetEra insiders cited in the report say the individual art looks legitimate and professionally produced, though there is still no definitive proof the material is real.
One widely shared group image was identified as AI-generated, yet social posts using the fake have already drawn tens of thousands of interactions amid the leak frenzy.
The leak has revived talk of a reveal at next week’s Xbox Games Showcase, but the report says Atlus is more likely to prioritize Persona 4 Revival before unveiling Persona 6.
With AI making fake leaks so realistic, is the era of the trusted video game insider already over?
Will the backlash over Persona 6's protagonist finally force major JRPG developers to rethink their traditions?
