We have been anticipating a Persona 5 announcement at the Xbox Games Showcase with all the leaks and rumors in recent months. However, many were surprised that the announcement trailer only showed the Xbox platform.

Persona 5 Tactica, a spin-off title of 2016's Persona 5 was revealed during the Xbox event. The RPG is being developed by P-Studio and will be published by Atlus in Japan with global distribution handled by Sega.

Many assumed that Microsoft struck a deal with Sega for an exclusivity deal given that only the Microsoft Windows, Xbox, and Xbox Game Pass logos were shown during the announcement. The Xbox maker did strike a deal with the publisher but the exclusivity only lasts for 48 hours and is only for the announcement.

After the 48-hour embargo was lifted, Atlus confirmed that the game will be coming to other platforms. The updated trailer from Atlus adds the Sony and Nintendo logos to the game.
