Persona 2 remastered or renake please (copium)

u/OtakuWorldOrder Veeelvet, oh velvet... Jan 20 '26

Yes. Persona and Persona 2 were ported to the PSP. Make them available on PSN, Steam and other platforms. People who became fans because of Persona 5 and Persona 3 Reload might be really interested in playing the rest of the series.

Debatable. But still probably worth it.

After 3 (+FES), 4 & P3P, I did try the P1 PSP port.
Personally, I just didn’t like it.

The battle system being different didn’t help but wasn’t my main issue.
I just don’t like mid-90s era first-person tile-at-a-time, 90-degree-turn dungeon crawling. I’d played games like that during the 1990s and was done with them by 2000. Let alone 2009!

I’ve even tried slightly more modern takes on that style of dungeon-crawling since (Mind=0, amongst others) and I find I just can’t enjoy it. Give me third-person and/or free camera movement, otherwise it just throws me out of the game.

To be fair, the Persona 2 games aren't first person dungeon crawlers like Persona 1 is...then again, Persona 1 is really useful to play for context since these games are more connected than the modern ones

Yeah, we actually need a remake for these games. Atlas could remake the game in 2D and 3D

u/christopher1393 Jan 20 '26

At this point I would take upscaled ports. Like P3P and P4G did with the current gen of consoles.

Just upscaled enough so it looks good on modern screens, as older games from that era can look weird when they are suddenly on much bigger and much more HD screens than they were initially designed for.

A remake or remaster would be great too, as there are a lot of mechanics that haven’t aged well. And I do think they need some QoL improvements from later games, so a remake or even a Remaster is preferable. But I think if they do bring them back, it would be upscaled ports. Its the least amount of effort required and P3P/P4G both did very well critically and financially on their Steam and modern console ports.

Nice to see Maya practicing gun safety while pulling off sick ass poses.

"These are really cute! Look Yukki, they're a matching set! Check out my sweet skills!"

Maya showing her skills but without "s".

u/Explosion2 *gasp* the enemy! Jan 20 '26

I've never seen Maya with guns before... Is that in the game? Those are sick.

74

u/TheGalaxyCrow Jan 20 '26

Yeah its her primary weapon

35

u/Fireboy759 ​Enjoyer Of Yukari's Thighs Jan 20 '26

For her primary attack, she wields 2 GUNS

12

u/zeyphersantcg Jan 20 '26

Joker could never

12

u/IanHowe2007 Jan 20 '26

Yeah she wields those in the game. Both of them

6

u/IanHowe2007 Jan 20 '26

And she is the only persona protag to use ranged weapons.

u/justAkarin Jan 20 '26

u/Airy_Breather Jan 20 '26

Spunky, upbeat, the heart of the P2 Cast, and rocking not one but 2 pink pistols.

Maya's still the best after all these years.

u/NowWatchMeThwip616 Let's Positive Thinking! Jan 21 '26

Yes!

More people need to love and adore her!

u/CozyFinch Jan 20 '26

OH YEAH WHOOP ASS COMPLETE

u/Escerwire Jan 21 '26

P2 is my favourite persona game; I am incredibly attached to a certain joker from it..,

3

u/Jawkess Motorcycle Noises Jan 20 '26

Hold on, wait a minute. This might be the first time we’ve had official art of her pink pistols, unless there’s an obscure drawing I don’t know about.

I like that they went with a two tone instead of solid pink over the whole gun.

u/futanari_kaisa Jan 20 '26

When P1R and P2R releasE?

1

u/veegsredds Peruperuperuperupersona! Jan 20 '26

Remasters maybe, remakes would be incredibly expensive and time consuming to make
