<p>Persona 5: The Phantom X is a mobile gacha spin-off game that launched in China, Taiwan, South Korea, and a handful of other countries last year. The game skipped out on the West and, strangely, Japan. However, Atlus and Sega have revealed it will finally come to these territories on June 26, and it’s also coming to PC alongside iOS and Android devices.</p><p>“Encompassed in the unique turn-based RPG gameplay and setting of Persona 5, players will lead a double life as a student and a Phantom Thief with a brand-new protagonist and band of Phantom Thieves,” a press release reads. “During the day, players will build up life experience as a student and engage in various activities such as hanging out with your friends and part time jobs, while at night, they will sneak into the cognitive dungeons to steal Treasures and change the twisted desires of corrupt adults.”</p><p>You can check out the official announcement trailer, which is followed by a developer livestream discussing the game, below:</p><iframe width=”560″ height=”315″ frameBorder=”0″ width=”640″ height=”360″ src=”https://www.youtube.com/embed/yQsdIWTGn_Y” frameborder=”0″ allow=”autoplay” allowfullscreen=”true”> </iframe><p>Atlus says players can expect new Phantom X-exclusive characters and returning favorites from Persona 5, like Joker and others, who will be available in special contracts. If you aren’t familiar with how The Phantom X works, it’s a gacha game, meaning one of the main goals of the RPG is to collect characters via special events and RNG pulls. If it’s anything like other popular gacha games like <a href=”https://www.gameinformer.com/review/genshin-impact/genshin-impact-review-into-the-great-wide-open”>Genshin Impact</a>, expect plenty of opportunities to spend money on additional gacha pulls or to increase your chances of getting a highly sought-after character or persona. This might be a turn-off for some, but gacha games are a popular genre, especially on mobile.</p><p>We won’t have to wait long to find out what awaits players because Persona 5: The Phantom X will be released on June 26 for PC, iOS, and Android.</p><p>Here are some screenshots from the game:</p><p class=”inline-rich-content-placeholder”> </p><p>In the meantime, check out <a href=”https://www.gameinformer.com/games/persona_5/b/playstation4/archive/2017/03/29/persona-5-review-game-informer.aspx”><em>Game Informer’s</em> Persona 5 review</a> and then read our thoughts on <a href=”https://www.gameinformer.com/review/persona-5-royal/persona-5-royal-review-revealing-its-true-form”>Persona 5 Royal</a>.
