New faces, familiar vibes, and a stylish return to the cognitive world
For fans of style-heavy storytelling, social sim depth, and turn-based combat with a supernatural twist, Persona 5: The Phantom X (also called P5X) is the exciting next chapter in the Phantom Thieves’ legacy.
Developed by Perfect World Games in partnership with SEGA and ATLUS, P5X is a mobile-first spinoff set in the same vibrant universe as Persona 5—but with a new cast, new mysteries, and plenty of that rebellious Persona charm.
đź§ What Is Persona 5: The Phantom X?
The Phantom X places you in the polished shoes of a new protagonist navigating student life by day and battling distorted desires in a shadow realm by night. While Joker and the original crew are referenced, this story is fresh—centered around a different high school, a new Velvet Room attendant, and a new metaphysical crisis.
