japan was on its annual "Sea Day" holiday on Monday, but the rumor mills were still turning. And one of the hottest rumors to emerge concerned the next numbered entry in the Persona series.
Actually, this isn't really a rumor, but the source is a bit odd. Pachinko information website 7rush reported earlier in the month that Persona 5 was going to be announced for the PlayStation 3. The report was part of the site's coverage of a press conference for a new Shin Megami Tensei themed pachinko machine, and the site suggested that the pachinko machine and Persona 5 would be promoted together throughout Japan in August as part of a "Megaten" boom ("Megaten" is the short name for all the Persona and related games).
The report, dated July 2, stated that Persona 5 was "scheduled to be announced" for the PS3. That, of course, hasn't happened yet, so we'd suggest treating this as a rumor for now. Once we do hear something more solid (hopefully from a source other than a pachinko website) we'll be sure and let you know!
In the meanwhile, those who must have a numbered Persona game can turn to the PS2, which took delivery of Persona 4 late last year.

I hope it comes out for the PS3, the persona series is a great one!
