Can't decide if I should get this game or wait for a re-release in 3 years?

On one hand this game looks really fun and I'll probably enjoy it.
On the other hand I'm wondering if Atlus, will make a re-release of this game with more content in 3 years or if they will do what they did with P3R and release dlc for it instead.

So what if they do? Your gaming budget $100 for 5 years or what? Buy re-release on deep sale since you played original already.

or you could change strategy, buy this game when has huge discount, there's no need to pre-order this one because the digital pre-order bonus isn't really good, do pre-order only if you are going with collector's edition.

About re-release, sure i know many Atlus fans know how Atlus do with their own games in the future, but this one will be different because Metaphor Re:fantazio will be release in multiple platform. For instance Persona 5 was originally PS3 and PS4 games then they re-release it to PS4 as Royal after that they decide to port Royal to more modern platform since 2022 (Persona 4 Golden first actually since 2020 on Steam), then SMT V was originally Switch exclusive then they re-release it as Vengeance for more modern platform. See the pattern here?

This is just my opinion, i think they will follow Persona 3 Reload's Path, "Expansion Pass", see how ridicolous they don't include any pay walled DLC story for this one? Soul Hackers 2 had one DLC story called "Lost Number", so they could do Expansion Pass this time around.

Believe it or leave it, your choice, it's your money anyway.

If you do want to pre-order, you can use GMG to get the Steam key for $10 cheaper. The 35th anniversary edition is $14 cheaper this way too

That argument does not take into account people who cant afford the time to re-play the entire game to access the expansion

I believe Atlus has said that they won't do a re-release of this game that will have more content as SMTV: Vengeance was the last one they'll do it for. I see no point in them doing yet another release of P3Re but with extra content. Least they'll do is just do DLC for the games. So I would just get it honestly.
