I think I'm less worried than I would be considering the history of Persona. Both Persona 3 and Persona 4 were announced three months prior to their release.
We also recently got a release date for SMT x FE, which was confirmed for very late 2015. While it was originally my belief that SMT x FE would be delayed into 2016 if Persona 5 were to be released in 2015, the fact that it's that late in the year, outside of the major buying season means that Atlus could still release Persona 5 in 2015. We know that Persona 5 is getting stage presence at the Tokyo Game Show, so it would make sense to announce it then.
In any case, we'll likely know when the game is releasing in less than two days.
