Ports for the Persona franchise games outside of PlayStation consoles have been a long time coming. Atlus began to increase interest in Persona games on PC and Nintendo Switch through its annual consumer survey in 2018. After the above ports were not conducted in the next two years, the 2020 Atlus survey saw a record number of participant and closed prematurely.
Finally Atlus released some ports of Catherine: Full Body, developed by the same team from the franchise, and Persona 5 Scramble, an action RPG.
