It's also relevant to point out that, at the moment, Persona 5 is technically playable on PC currently via the RPCS3 emulator. However, Persona 5 Strikers coming to Steam is a pretty clear indicator SEGA's PC plans extend beyond just legacy content. SEGA and Atlus saw this as a clear success, and made several statements expressing renewed interest in old titles and bringing them to PC.

The Steam port alone saw huge adoption from fans, with over 500,000 copies sold on Steam within the first month. For the first time since its release on PlayStation Vita, Persona 4 Golden was surprisingly ported to PC after spending years on the Sony handheld. The Persona series in general saw a pretty big boost in popularity this year, but the PC platform in particular is seeing a lot of love from Atlus. Persona's Popularity on PC Specifically Lends Hope RELATED: Persona 5 Strikers Announcement Leaks Early, Launches Feb 2021 The Strikers port is almost certainly a sign of what's to come. However, SEGA and Atlus have shown a renewed interest in the PC platform as a whole in the last few years, for multiple reasons. Players are going to get invariably more enjoyment out of Strikers if they've played Persona 5, which is obviously going to be very hard to do if PC players never owned a PS4. As much as Strikers is a spin-off game, it is still very much a sequel to the events of Persona 5/ Persona 5 Royal. Many would make the assumption that, since Persona 5 Strikers is not only being localized but ported to PC as well, the game it's based on would also theoretically come to the PC platform. That being said, even though Strikers' localization is very good news, it does beg a pretty big question thanks to its release on Steam: Where's Persona 5's PC port? The game's been available in Japan for several months already, but after the leaked trailer, the localized version is coming a year later in February 2021. Realizing one of the earliest gameplay concepts for the base game, Persona 5 Strikers adopts the musou format and melds Dynasty Warriors action combat with Persona's elements of turn-based battles. Fans have been clamoring for a western for a long time, and finally the highly anticipated Persona 5 spin-off/sequel is coming to the west.
