Um Imparcial View of Persona 5 The Phantom X

Throughout the game's story, there are multiple characters who have no Persona power of their own but appear in the Metaverse in their Phantom Thief forms and join the battles. These characters are cognitive manifestations created by Merope in accordance with the following conditions:

They exist in the protagonist's cognition. In the real world, the protagonist either knows them, or has met or heard about them, which even he does not necessarily need to have realized.

Like Persona 5, the dungeon crawling portion takes place in the Metaverse, a realm created from subconscious desires that consists of Mementos and Palaces.

The trio work together as the Phantom Thieves, promising to steal the treasures out of six other palaces. Shun Kano, a fellow Kokatsu Academy student, joins the Phantom Thieves to change the heart of Hiromu Miyazawa, a dishonest food critic who uses his platform to acquire restaurants and profit through the use of cheaper ingredients.

The game begins in a similar vein to how Persona 5 begins, midway through the infiltration at Niijima's Palace. However, when Joker begins to make his escape, a hooded intruder intervenes and attacks him.

Lufel points out to Nagisa a former baseball player, Takeyuki Kiuchi, who intentionally rams into women in the subway as a means of attaining his misogynistic desires, and says that in order to stop him, they must enter Kiuchi's palace (a baseball stadium) within the Metaverse and steal his treasure, an object which is the source of warped desires.

When it comes to the overworld, very few things have seen changes. Many of the locations (such as Shibuya and Yongen-Jaya) resemble their original game counterparts and activities (like batting and fishing) are also unchanged. However, there are some new locations to visit, such as Zoshigaya, and some new activities like playing music or soccer. There is also a gachapon (and as of Update 3.0.2 a claw game) the protagonist can play and try to get rewards that can be used to decorate the protagonist’s house.

After awakening from a nightmare, the protagonist is thrust into a changed world drained of hope... And the new faces he encounters are pelo less strange: an eloquent owl named Lufel, a long-nosed man and a beauty donned in blue.

Currently, mission 3 is the longest main story mission content due to had two different major targets within one shared Palace.

Much of the gameplay takes direct reference from Persona 5, where the protagonist will live a dual life between spending time in the real world, as well as roaming and fighting in the Metaverse. The game does not follow a calendar system; the protagonist's free time in the city is only limited by a special currency taking the form of hourglasses.

As he navigates the mysterious realms Persona 5 The Phantom X 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.

Despite this, however, the calendar does appear in the game, albeit superficially and seemingly only used to track the days playing the game.[48] This also means there are pelo deadlines in this game and the protagonist can take as long as necessary to clear story missions.

The gameplay isn't bad, but it's clear that they've decided to focus on finding more ways to get people to spend rather than creating an enjoyable experience. Especially when we have previous versions to compare to, the global version is way stingier, consistently giving less rewards and increasing prices.

To accommodate the format of a free-to-play game created primarily for mobile devices, Persona 5: The Phantom X adapts the Persona mechanics with various changes.

At Tokyo Game Show, the Japanese version of the game was revealed. There was an in person demo alongside cosplayers and merch much like the previous event. That event also announced that there would be a beta for the game to be revealed at a later date. Gallery[]
