Voice actor Yuri Lowenthal shared news about the Persona 4 remake on BlueSky. He plays Yosuke Hanamura and Spider-Man in Marvel games. Fans kept asking him about the remake project. Lowenthal told everyone he had asked Atlus to come back for the role. The company turned him down despite his requests.
His post confirms what gamers had suspected about the remake's existence. Atlus appears to be replacing the original voice cast completely. The company did the same thing with Persona 3 Reload last year. That game sold very well after launch. Atlus wants to copy that success with the new Persona 4 project.
Lowenthal sounded upset about losing his role as Yosuke. He mentioned begging the developers to keep him on the team. The actor has played this character for many years. Other voice actors from the original game will likely face the same situation. Atlus has not announced the remake officially at this time.
