Footage of Jet Set Radio and Persona 3 remakes has seemingly leaked | VGC appeared on www.videogameschronicle.com by Chris Scullion.
Footage has emerged of what appears to be remakes of Jet Set Radio and Persona 3.
Twitter user AVtoGAMEnoYAMI posted a video on Sunday which shows Yukari from Persona 3 firing magical arrows, in footage that looks more detailed than Persona 3 usually does.
This is followed by early preview footage of Sonic Frontiers, then there’s a brief five-second clip that appears to show Beat from Jet Set Radio dancing. The video has text in the corner of the screen that reads “footage in development”.
According to AVtoGAMEnoYAMI, the footage is “from SEGA Japan’s internal meeting held in 2021?.
Although brief clips like this could be faked, various sites have now stepped forward and stated that they have information that causes them to believe the footage is legitimate.
After Twitter user Genki_JPN shared a watermarked image that looked similar to the Jet Set Radio footage, Sega news site SEGAbits posted that it had received leaked images from a survey asking about different art styles for a Jet Set Radio game, but that it didn’t share them because it was watermarked with a user’s name.
Following Genki_JPN’s image, SEGAbits decided to share the images, blurring them to obscure the watermark.
Meanwhile, Gematsu appeared to suggest the Persona 3 footage may be real to some extent, noting: “While we cannot verify the footage itself, Gematsu understands that a Persona 3 remake has been in development at Atlus for several years.”
It also noted that Twitter user MbKKssTBhz5 had found a website called p3re.jp, which had been registered by the same domain provider as the official Persona 5 Royal website.
It had already been reported last year by Bloomberg that Sega had been working on big-budget reboots of Crazy Taxi and Jet Set Radio, according to its sources.
Given that the leaked footage is from 2021, and that Bloomberg’s report in 2022 noted that both games were still early in development, it should be noted that there’s still a possibility that Jet Set Radio could have been cancelled at some point, and that the newly leaked footage is no indication that a release is certain.
