We want to keep bringing you titles like Persona 5. We appreciate the awareness generated by the emulation community for Persona 5 and know that it is a fantastic example of how much people are loving our game. And while we don’t have anything to announce today, we are listening! For now, the best way to experience Persona 5 is on PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 3. We understand that many Persona fans would love to see a PC version. We don’t want their first experiences to be framerate drops, or crashes, or other issues that can crop up in emulation that we have not personally overseen. We believe that our fans best experience our titles (like Persona 5) on the actual platforms for which they are developed. We settled upon this action for two reasons: You might have heard earlier today that we issued a DMCA takedown notice involving emulation developer group RPCS3 and their Patreon page. Here's the official statement from Atlus regarding their decision: It appears Atlus wasn't thrilled the game was being advertised so boastfully when the game itself isn't officially available on the PC to begin with, nor do there seem to be any plans to make that happen. As a result, the game has been wiped from the RPCS3 official website, the Compatibility page, and the monthly progress reports mentioning it by name. It still isn't perfect, but it was a crucial milestone for this budding project.īut that has all changed as Atlus announced today they have sent a takedown notice to the development team behind RPCS3. Not too long ago, the community working on RPCS3 proclaimed victory as they were able to make the game run at a full framerate from start to finish. One of those games happens to be Persona 5, one of the biggest games released in the west earlier this year.

More games become playable through the emulation software on a monthly basis. For those who haven't been paying attention to the scene, PlayStation 3 emulator RPCS3 has been making waves lately as it has grown leaps and bounds with the help of the community.
