TGS 2024 Japan Game Awards: Future Games Category Winner! Following the critically-acclaimed Persona series, which has sold over 23.5 million copies globally, Persona5: The Phantom X is set for release!
■Here to steal your twisted heart Student by day, phantom thief by night: unmask the corrupt bigwigs of the real world by seizing their distorted desires from the shadows of the Metaverse. With a compelling plot, unique characters, and exciting gameplay, everything you've come to know and love from the Persona series is awaiting you in this new adventure!
■Story After awakening from a nightmare, the protagonist is thrust into a changed world drained of hope... And the new faces he encounters are no less strange: an eloquent owl named Lufel, a long-nosed man and a beauty donned in blue.
As he navigates the mysterious realms of the Metaverse and the Velvet Room, and grapples with ruinous visions that threaten his everyday life, he must discover what there is to take from this new world—and all in true Phantom Thief style.

The game has great visuals but the UI and controls are pretty awful. Some puzzles involve avoiding hazards, which is near impossible with the touchscreen joystick. The gameplay feels tedious and repetitive. It isn't very fun with frequent loading screens and difficult to navigate menus. I don't see myself playing this long term...

The game itself is okay, managed to capture some of the mainline Persona games elements pretty well. There are translation issues, and it feels clunky at times when playing on mobile (even on lowest settings on a high-end phone/tablet). But the most glaring issue is that the global server seems to be getting the short end of the stick when it comes to rewards (in comparison to CN/TW/KR servers) and all the changes are communicated rather terribly...

Honestly, this is a really fun game so far! But the current greed and lack of compensation while speeding up updates and banners to catch up with the other versions will run the global version of this game into the ground, very, very quickly. I personally wouldn't invest too much if things don't change, cause in a few more updates it might just be time to jump ship.
