On Tuesday, Atlus uploaded a gameplay video for Persona 5 Tactica detailing the remaining members of the Phantom Thieves.
In the trailer, we see the abilities of Ryuji, Ann, Yusuke, Makoto, Haru, and Futaba. Each uses their signature Persona and has their own advantages on the battlefield. For example, Ryuji can use Shock attacks via his Persona, Captain Kidd. He can also use his shotgun to hit multiple targets in one area. Ryuji's signature move, Brigantine Blitzkrieg, stuns all enemies in a straight line, even those behind cover.
Meanwhile, Makoto and her Persona, Johanna, are strongest up close and personal. Her ability, Full Throttle, lets her charge her motorcycle into enemies within a straight line and knock them out of cover.
It's Showtime!

Tactica, a strategy title, follows Persona 5's Phantom Thieves as they are transported into an alternate war-riddled world. They join forces with the Rebel Corps, led by Erina, as they take down the regime of Legionnaires. Revealed (https://www.destructoid.com/woah-persona-5-tactica-gets-announced-out-of-nowhere/) in June (and leaked the day prior (https://www.destructoid.com/double-whoops-persona-5-tactica-was-also-leaked/)), this is the third Persona 5 spinoff title, following Persona 5: Dancing in Spotlight and Persona 5 Strikers. The gameplay is reminiscent of typical tactical games like Mario & Rabbids: Kingdom Battle and XCOM 2, as players will use cover and various weapons/powers to defeat their enemies.
Persona 5 Tactica is shaping up to be a strong and unique title for the series. Updates for the game are pretty frequent on Atlus West's YouTube account (https://www.youtube.com/@atlus). Trailers, usually labeled under the banner of Sergeant Morgana's Marvelous Tactical Training, have been coming out weekly. Our very own Timothy Monbleau (https://www.destructoid.com/author/timothymonbleau/) went hands-on with the title (https://www.destructoid.com/hands-on-persona-5-tactica-your-gateway-game-into-tactical-rpgs/) in August, which he cites as an interesting take on the franchise, harkening back to its Devil Summoner roots
Those who pre-order the game get access to two familiar Personas, Orpheus Picaro (Persona 3) and Izanagi Picaro (Persona 4). The Digital Deluxe version includes more Personas, weapons, and the Repaint Your Heart Challenge Pack. Phantom Thieves Akechi and Kasumi will be playable in the pack, though no gameplay of them has been shown.
Persona 5 Tactica will launch on Xbox One, Xbox Series, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, PC, and Nintendo Switch on November 17th, 2023, and will be a day-one Xbox Game Pass game.
