Steal Your Heart (And Wallet)Just in case you liked Persona 5 a little too much, publisher Perfect World Games has announced (https://p5x.wanmei.com/) the coming of a brand new release within the slick 'n' stylish RPG franchise, situated within the much-loved "free-to-play mobile title with in-game purchases" genre ? Presented for your consideration: Persona 5: The Phantom X aka Persona: Phantom of the Night.

Developed by Black Wings Game Studio, Persona 5: The Phantom X will see an entirely new gang of Phantom Thieves stealing hearts and purchasing microtransactions against the backdrop of a depressed Tokyo populace. The new title will feature all of the typical action players have come to know from the series ? from attending school classes and enjoying local activities to battling demons and exploring alternate universes. Both Sega and Atlus' dedicated P-Studio will supervise production.

Two new trailers showcase The Phantom X's very nice visuals, and also reintroduce us to The Velvet Room, complete with what appears to be a whole new assistant. I'm certainly not denying that it looks like a legitimate and authentic spin-off of the Persona series' biggest-selling release (https://www.destructoid.com/reviews/review-persona-5/), (and that new owl companion is super cool) but by its core F2P w/ in-game purchases concept, it's difficult not to view the title immediately with a raised eyebrow and an impending sense of expensive dread. Am I being presumptuous? Perhaps, but then, we've all had more than enough experience with these titles.
Here's hoping our new Phantom Thieves will buck the trend.
Persona 5: The Phantom X / Persona: Phantom of the Night is in development for iOS and Android platforms. There is no release date, but players in China can already sign up for an "Infiltration Test (https://p5x.wanmei.com/)" over on the official website.
