Persona 4 Revival's cutscenes come from Jujutsu Kaisen and Chainsaw Man studio MAPPA – just in case the JRPG remake wasn't already promising enough

As if Persona 4 Revival couldn't get any more exciting, it's now been confirmed that anime powerhouse MAPPA – the studio behind Jujutsu Kaisen, Chainsaw Man, Attack on Titan's final season, and more – is producing all of the JRPG remake's animated cutscenes. That's right, from the animators who brought you Satoru Gojo's ethereal blue eyes and many of Attack on Titan's most explosive scenes, we can now get ready for Persona 4 Golden's cutscenes to be brought to life in a new way. We've already seen some of these in action from the remake's trailers and promotional videos – like the snippet of protagonist Yu Narukami awakening to his first Persona, Izanagi, in the game's pre-order trailer. From what's been shown so far, they look incredible. Lights, camera, MAPPA! ????️All animation cutscenes in Persona 4 Revival will be produced by the renowned Japanese animation studio, @MAPPA_Info.Pre-order now: https://t.co/Zlk5fizBWX pic.twitter.com/bJKwD7oiIYJuly 4, 2026 MAPPA's involvement in Persona 4 Revival was announced during Anime Expo 2026 over the weekend, where it was also revealed that Rise (the game's navigator, like Persona 5's Futaba and Persona 3's Fuuka) will be voiced by Abby Trott in the English dub, replacing The Last of Us Part 2's Abby actor, Laura Bailey. This isn't Trott's first Persona role, as she also voiced Tae Takemi in 5 Royal. The new cast might take some getting used to for veteran fans, but it'd be hard to fault the new performances, from what we've heard. I always thought that Persona 3 Reload looked great, but I've got to say that Persona 4 Revival is already looking like an even more impressive remake from what we've seen. MAPPA is only handling those anime-style cutscenes, but even the regular in-game cutscenes look super expressive, too. There's still quite a wait before Persona 4 Revival's February 17, 2027, launch, but at least we'll have something to tide us over until Persona 6 eventually releases. It's real, it's green, and it's looking a bit sinister, but that's about all we know about that one right now. One Persona 4 Revival actor shared her "hardcore manifestation" to get into the JRPG remake over 2 years ago, and it clearly worked: "Dreams really do come true." [/url]
