In case anyone was confused this number is only for the re-release in 2022. It doesn't include the PS4 version. The PS4 version of Persona 5 Royal sold 2.3m as of November 2022.

Remaster is so misleading. If it's a remaster at all, it would only fit that criteria on PS5, Xbox Series, and PC.
All Persona 5 Royal has on PS5 (compared to PS4) is Native 4K (instead of upscaled), 60 FPS and all DLC.

Worst is that even if you have Royal on PS4 you can't buy update it needs to be the full game even if the improvements are negligible.

So the remaster version on switch doesn't look or run better than the ps4 version?

No, it's lower resolution (900p in docked) and has lower resolution textures

Unless there was an update the Switch version is 810p docked abd 540p in handheld at stable 30fps.

Even though it is a PS3 game I wouldn't expect Switch version to outdo PS4 version in performance.

Would be good to see the breakdown of this as multiplat.

So where's Persona 6 then?

Persona 5 was heavily delayed (from late 2014 to late 2016), so they're likely just going to wait a bit before announcing anything.

That will be 7 years ago this year. Surely it's been enough time to get quite a way through making P7.

Persona 5 Royal released in late 2019. They clearly didn't start working on Persona 6 before that.
