Summary
- Erin Fitzgerald, the voice actress behind Chie in Persona 4, has confirmed that she won't be returning in the remake.
- Just yesterday, Yosuke's voice actor, Yuri Lowenthal, also confirmed that he won't be appearing.
- While Atlus hasn't officially announced the project, it may appear during next month's Xbox Games Showcase.
Another original Persona 4 voice actor has seemingly confirmed the existence of a remake. While Atlus has not provided any official confirmation just yet, the wild success of Persona 3 Reload has many fans convinced that Persona 4 will be the next title in the franchise to get the remake treatment.
The Persona series reached new heights of popularity following the launch of the fifth installment in 2017. More recent fans have been eager to dive into past installments, though graphical limitations and outdated controls have made doing so a chore for those used to more modernized RPGs. The introduction of Persona 3 Reload was a blessing for new and old fans alike, adding polish to the beloved PS2 title and making it more accessible to a wider array of players. Recent leaks imply that more Persona remakes and remasters are in the works, and some new evidence has surfaced about a fan-favorite title.
A Persona 4 Remake Would Have to Answer One Burning Question About Physical Skills
While a Persona 4 remake would have plenty of mechanics to handle, the game's physical skills raise a rather interesting question.
Just yesterday, Yuri Lowenthal, known for his work as Yosuke in Persona 4, stated that he wasn't returning to voice the character in the remake. Now, another member of the game's cast has spoken up, with Erin Fitzgerald confirming via Bluesky that she had not been asked to reprise her role as Chie in the Persona 4 remake, while also sharing how thankful she is for having recorded multiple games as the beloved character. While many fans of the original title have expressed sadness that the voice cast is being replaced, others are happy to see even more proof of the remake's existence in lieu of an official announcement from Atlus.
Chie's Voice Actress Erin Fitzgerald Won't Be Returning in Persona 4 Remake
For those asking, I have not been asked to reprise my role as Chie Satonaka in the Persona 4 remake. RIP 😭😭😭😭😭😭 I am blessed to have recorded as many Persona 4 games as I did playing her. — Erin Fitzgerald still on strike (@erinfitzgerald.bsky.social) 2025-05-29T00:39:33.040Z
As more evidence surfaces, a large portion of the community believes that the Persona 4 remake will be revealed at the 2025 Xbox Games Showcase in June, including known Microsoft leaker Extas1s. According to the Spanish YouTuber, the rumored title will also launch as a day-one title on Xbox Game Pass, just like Persona 3 Reload and Persona 5 Tactica. It's likely that the game will also make its way to PC, PS5, and Nintendo's new Switch 2.
Persona 4 remains one of the most beloved titles in the franchise, and while a remake in the same vein as Persona 3 Reload is welcome, the majority of the community is fixated on the mysterious Persona 6. Almost a decade after the release of Persona 5, fans are becoming frustrated by the lack of concrete Persona 6 news from Atlus, with the company's radio silence leaving some concerned about the game's development.
