At the time of writing, neither developer Atlus or parent company SEGA have commented on what the clock is counting down to, although many expect it to be a release date for the eagerly anticipated Persona 5, which was previously slated to launch last year.

Since the initial delay out of the end of 2015, Atlus gave a vague Summer 2016 release date for the JRPG, but have not further expanded upon this statement since.

However Persona 5 director Katsura Hashino gave a hint into the themes that the game would follow, stating “This time, it’s about a group of high school students that are being ‘chased’ by unexpected occurrences due to the justice they believe in. We’re writing (the story) to convey a thrilling everyday life in the shoes of these characters.”

Persona 5 is currently slated to launch for both the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 3 systems, and as of right now, Atlus has not revoked the tentative Summer 2016 release.
