This isn't the first time Midori has shared details about Persona 6, including the game's green theme. While much of the content shared is subject to change and Midori claims that this is not the final logo, the image of the placeholder logo from Persona 5's announcement is quite similar to the official version of the logo.

One of the most interesting things about this logo is the blue background and black text of the photo. Persona games often use color to indicate the tone and theme for each release.

A deeper dive into the color theory of the Persona series suggests that greed and jealousy may be the main themes, but the dedicated fanbase will keep guessing until Atlus comes up with something official .
