The rumor specifically comes way of MysticDistance, a translator and writer for Persona Central and other websites. According to MysticDistance, multiple sources have provided them with "rather damning" evidence that the beloved game will come to the Nintendo hyrbird platform sometime next year.
Further, apparently the port will be announced when Joker becomes playable in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. Said port will "contain adjustments to the game, additional aspects to the scenario" and "other wanted additions."
According to MysticDistance, a Nintendo Switch port is something Atlus has been thinking about as of mid-2017, which is right about when the game released in the west and right about when the Switch started selling like hotcakes.
As always, all rumors and reports of this nature should be taken with a grain of salt, and this one is no exception. After all, the only thing you can ever take to the bank is official confirmation. That said, when it comes to Persona, there's nobody covering the beat as hard as MysticDistance, so if anyone was going to have a scoop, it would be them.
Further, with Nintendo revealing that Persona series' Joker will be coming to Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, it makes sense in return the game would come to Nintendo Switch. However, for now all we can do is wait and see.
