Great looking intro. Sucks that this is mobile though.

 

[Dazraell]

Feels a bit too same'y to original Persona 5 imo

 

[Thick Thighs Save Lives]

Btw, it's also on PC and Midori before being forced to retire said it will be launching globally soonish, and apparently Atlus/SEGA themselves will publish it outside of CN & KR instead of Perfect World.

If Sony is smart they'll do their best to get P5X on PS5 asap considering that they already have tons of gacha games on it, and some other higher profiles one coming this year as well (e.g. Zenless Zone Zero, Wuthering Waves and Arknights: Endfield).

Anyway, it's probably my most anticipated gacha game lol as the production values are high and matches Persona 5 Royal.

Anyway, the opening song used for this animation is straight

Here's a couple of gifs taken from the opening animation.

I'm still about to finish 3R, but that's definitely on my list

 

[Thick Thighs Save Lives]

Here's the banger song that Lyn made for the P5X opening animation.

Feels sort of sad that a mobile spinoff gets better character designs then the mainline 5.

 

[Heimdall_Xtreme]

Its a MOBILE GAME!!???

Yeah. P5X is a gacha game coming to PC and mobile. They've only announced the CN and KR release, but it's expected to come to Global and Japan as well later on.

Okay, I'll check it out because you recommend it to me

Do we know anything about the gameplay when compared to P5? Is it a similar game with turned based combat and social stuff where you buy personas with money or have they made something completely different?

Yes, it uses the same turn-based combat system as in P5. There are still social links, and like in P5, you can gift character items. You obtain new Personas by pulling for them through the gacha mechanic (the same applies for obtaining new characters/phantom thieves).





There's gacha for weapons too:



There's also a new Velvelt Room waifu, I mean attendant:



They've added new locations to explore:



They've also extended Shinjuku



New Phantoms to recruit (they've put quite a bit of effort into their animations:



Combat Gameplay




There's lots more stuff from the betas so check out Faz YouTube channel, he has a dedicated playlist with tons of P5X stuff.

Heimdall_Xtreme Tagging you here as well as what I shared in this post might interest you.

Ok, that looks like a proper persona game which I was not expecting. Now I'm intrigued.

Yup, they've put a ton of effort into it. That's why I'm excited to give it a shot once it releases in the west even with it being a gacha game.

Only played P5 Royal but damn the music in these games is so good.

Thank your for the post....

The game looks great. Hopefully it comes out on consoles.

Sad, its by far the worst Persona game.

 

[ChuckeRearmed]

The art style of Persona 5 is just too iconic. I wonder what art style Persona 6 will have though. I guess similar but with different colors?


The bigger question if the game will succeed on mobile or not.

 

[Synless]

How much more blood can the wrench out of this title? It’s way too overexposed at this point.

 

[Hudo]

Don't worry bros. Metaphor is next in line to be milked!

It should do pretty good as there's already 10M pre-registrations for the CN version with 2 weeks still to go.

That said, I'm more interested in how the Global and Japanese releases will fare, considering how beloved the IP has become.

 

[TintoConCasera]

I'm not into gachas but man, they sure put a ton of effort into this one.

Might give it a shot if they ever release it globally, which I guess they'll do for sure.

 

[Thick Thighs Save Lives]

Some new P5X info coming from Midori:



Also, here's the official key art for reaching 10M pre-registrations for the CN version of the game.

New Velvet Room attendant is top tier I will give them that , but ...

Queen Makoto still remain superior

Kasumi is hella cute too

 

[Chittagong]

Looks insane. If this can be controlled without an onscreen controller overlay, but rather direct taps, I’m in!

who's working on the soundtrack?

who's working on the soundtrack?

From the linked article. ^^

The theme song “Ambitions and Visions” was composed by Atlus’ Ryota Kozuka and the rest of the soundtrack was created by the music team of Perfect World game’s Black Wings Studio, supervised by Atlus and Sega.

I've posted Ambitions and Visions earlier in this thread.

Oh! So that theme was composed by the same composer as SMT IV (best videogame OST ever) and SMT V? Very cool.

Never heard of Black Wings Studio but I guess they'll do a nice job.

The very same. Although Lyn did the vocals for Ambitions and Visions:

You could tell me this was composed by Meguro and I would have believed it. Ryota sure is very good at mimicking his style.

Glad to know the SMT games will keep having great OSTs for many years still.
