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...

This game is amazing! The story, characters, and settings are all amazing and it truly is Persona 5 on the phone. Gacha isn't necessary much at all so free to play players can thrive! The only problems are loading transitions when ambushing an enemy to battle and when defeating an enemy and going back on the field. Along with the lack of true controller support those are the only nitpicks I have that stop it from being a perfect 5. If you love Persona, play this game for sure!

Kinda new to the Persona series, but I figured i'd give this one a go. Game is great fun in itself but I have a couple issues with it. When using a controller, the menu button doesn't do anything and instead switches to a mouse and keyboard mode, even though prompts for the menu button show up for certain functions. I also have loading issues after playing for a while, no idea if it's like a memory leak, but the loading times get obsurd.
