In Persona 5: The Phantom X, you step into the role of a brand new protagonist, leading a fresh crew of Phantom Thieves through a stylized modern-day Tokyo filled with new palaces and mementos. The gameplay retains the beloved elements of the series, including turn-based combat and a dual-life rhythm, while introducing light social-simulation features and dungeon crawling.
The narrative begins with the protagonist awakening from a nightmare to find themselves in a distorted version of reality. Along their journey, they encounter a talking owl named Lefaye and the iconic Velvet Room crew, including the enigmatic long-nosed man and his assistants. Additional features include a guild system and a PvE mode known as Velvet Trials, alongside appearances from familiar characters from the original Persona 5.
