The Upcoming Game Appears Insane, But There’s a Major Catch

A new Persona 5 is revealed and it looks simply superb, but there is a big downside unfortunately. We're going to have to grit our teeth.

The Persona series has existed for many years, yet it has been since Persona 5 that it has literally exploded in front of everyone. The fifth part is a masterpiece that is difficult to attack. Remarkable writing, an exciting plot, superb gameplay and simply incredible artistic direction. THE game has almost everything going for it, and it has succeeded. The Atlus game is a great success, it allowed the license to open up to a wide audience to the point that remasters of old episodes and a reboot of Persona 3 saw the light of day recently.

A new Persona 5 which promises to be sublime, except that…

That's without counting Persona 5 which, on its own, has almost as many spin-offs as there are games in the main license. Persona 5 Strikers, a direct sequel in muso format, Persona 5 Tactica, a tactical game-style interlude or Persona 5 Dancing in Starlight, a rhythm game. But that's not all ! A few lucky people can already play the next game in the franchise, Persona 5 The Phantoma mobile RPG where you play as a group of students who have all awakened their personas.

It's impossible to say what it's worth at the moment since if the game is extremely anticipated by early fans, unfortunately, we don't know when the global version will be available. For now, it is the Asian market that will benefit first, with China and Japan in the lead. All we have is the right to watch superb videos that really make us hungry, we almost forget that it's a free-to-play gacha intended for mobile.

When will this P5 Phantom

And if the game is making a big splash, it's because this new Persona 5 is currently a hit, even before its release almost everywhere in the East. Atlus has in fact recorded a record number of pre-registrations, more than 10 million users in Chinese territory alone, this is unheard of for the license. From April 12, major Asian countries such as China, Japan and Korea will be able to benefit from this Persona 5 Phantom X in version 1.0. The Americans and Europeans, for their part, will only have their eyes to cry, even if, we suspect, the software will eventually arrive in our countries, if success is there and that, we will not no doubt about it.

In the meantime, we leave you here a little gameplay sequence so you can get an idea. For this we borrow some sequences captured by the YouTube channel Faz. And the least we can say is that this new Persona 5 has very serious arguments to seduce.
