The story
A link to footage claimed to be a remake of the original Revelations: Persona was posted on 5ch’s Hardware/Industry (Geha) board. Commenters noted the battle scenes resemble Persona 5, while the field screens look closer to Persona 3 Reload, and the redesign of the character Elly also became a talking point. Opinions in the thread split over whether this is a genuine internal demo or an elaborate fan-made or AI-generated fake, and the discussion expanded into comparisons with past leak controversies involving Atlus titles.

"The battle vocals are annoying, make them change it"
Devs: "Nah, lol"
It's a pretty busy, modern-style remake. Guess they're trying to pull in new fans.
I'd also love a version that's just the original with a drastically improved UI, though.
There's a lot of speculation, but it's probably a placeholder character since they're developing it alongside 2 (Persona 2) — or maybe it's a guest appearance.
It doesn't have the garbled-text giveaways typical of fakes made by overseas creators, and parts obviously use placeholder assets, so it feels like an internal demo.
Is this the real deal?
Leaning heavily toward real. Hardly any overseas fans doubting it either.
What year is this image even from?
Atlus games have trash-tier graphics anyway, so the Switch is more than enough.
Probably got silenced.
Apparently that guy got doxxed.
That guy was a legit leaker. Impressive that he even called Metaphor, Persona 6, and the Switch 2.
Both the P3 and P4 remakes (Reload) were made by Toose, so this is probably Toose too. Atlus doesn't even have an in-house dev department for this kind of thing.
Don't compare Raidou to Persona.
Background and Key Points of the Discussion
What’s generating buzz here isn’t an official announcement but footage of unknown origin that leaked online. The thread title says “confirmed,” but neither Atlus nor Sega has made any formal announcement, so readers should be careful not to mistake this for confirmed fact — it remains unverified for now. There is precedent for this: footage from the Persona 3 Reload and Like a Dragon (Yakuza) remakes has leaked online before release in the past, and commenters suggest this footage may have surfaced through a similar route. The thread was split mainly over two questions: whether the footage is a genuine internal demo or a well-made fan creation or AI-generated fake, and whether the character redesigns are a welcome update or a betrayal of the original’s atmosphere.
