Atlus Studio in collaboration with Koei Tecmo’s Omega Force has announced the launching of the newest installment in their hit series, Persona 5 Scramble: The Phantom Strikes. The date of release is set on February 20, 2020, on PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch. It is the direct sequel of Persona 5 with a completely new story set after the end of its predecessor.

Persona 5 Scramble takes place about half a year after the end of the original Persona 5 story. The characters are about to enjoy their summer vacation together, but their time was cut short by the impending danger. The cognitive worlds created by twisted adults, Palaces, have returned ruled by the command of someone called King. The thieves must unite once more to solve new incidents in the world of Persona 5 Scramble.

The characters of Persona 5 Scramble will travel all over Japan to solve mysterious “Conversion Events” caused by the return of Palaces. While traveling as the thieves, players will not only be able to control Joker but also characters other than Navi throughout the game. Persona 5 Scramble enables you to switch between characters in fights according to the situation and run through the cities full of Shadows with dynamic, Persona-summoning action.

Not only that, Persona 5 Scramble is bringing new mysterious characters into the scene. One of which (with her picture above) is Sophia, an ally to the thieves who can control beings similar to a Persona called "Phitos". Two others that has been announced or can be seen in the trailer is Public Safety Police Officer Zenkichi Hasegawa and a girl with colorful attributes who seems to be a villain.
