Persona 5 Scramble: The Phantom Strikers gets release date, details

Persona 5 Scramble: The Phantom Strikers will be out 20 February, 2020 in Japan! The game will be arriving to Playstation 4 and Nintendo Switch at 8,800 yen. A “Treasure Box” edition will be available at 13,800 yen.

This is a completely new story set after the events of Persona 5. The Phantom Thieves of Heart take a well-deserved vacation half a year since the end of P5. Their summer vacation gets interrupted by a new incident, with mysterious cases happening all over Japan! Palaces have appeared to return, so they must don their disguises once more to solve the case.

You’ll be able to switch up your characters as you fight. Joker’s not the only playable character! Likewise, Personas are also summonable. Looks like there’s good ol’ exploring, and climbing around to do too!
