Get ready, Persona fans! The long-awaited mobile spin-off, Persona 5: The Phantom X, is finally breaking free from its Eastern-only release and is set to launch worldwide on mobile and PC. Mark your calendars for June 26th, as this highly anticipated game brings a fresh, original storyline to your fingertips while retaining the beloved gameplay elements from the original Persona 5.
In Persona 5: The Phantom X, you'll step into the shoes of a new protagonist, leading your own group of Phantom Thieves through the bustling streets of modern-day Tokyo. The game seamlessly blends the daily routines of student life—attending classes, participating in extracurricular activities, and interacting with peers—with the thrilling nocturnal adventures of the Phantom Thieves, who harness the power of mysterious beings known as Personas.
**It's not a Stand** Persona 5: The Phantom X isn't just another spin-off; it's practically a standalone sequel. While it builds on the foundational premise of Phantom Thieves and Personas, nearly everything else is brand new. Dive into new palaces, explore mementos, join a guild, and challenge yourself in the Velvet Trials PvE mode. Plus, keep an eye out for some familiar faces from the original Persona 5 making a return.
