The Phantom Thieves are back in Persona 5 Strikers, releasing February 23 on PS4

It’s showtime – Persona 5 Strikers is coming to the PlayStation 4 on February 23, 2021! Pre-order starts December 10th at 4PM PT/ December 11th 1AM BST.

Persona 5 Strikers takes players on an epic road trip with the Phantom Thieves, where they strike back against the corruption overwhelming cities across Japan. A summer vacation with close friends takes a sudden turn as a distorted reality emerges; reveal the truth and redeem the hearts of those imprisoned at the center of the crisis.

If you’re a new Phantom Thief, don’t be afraid to jump into Persona 5 Strikers. Because it’s a new story, you’ll be able to jump into the action and strike back alongside your fellow Phantom Thieves. 

Here’s a special message from Persona 5 Strikers Director Daisuke Kanada:

“Because P5S is P5’s follow-up story, those who are familiar with P5 will probably be able to enjoy the game on a deeper level. 

That being said, because the story revolves around an all-new incident, I think people will still be able to enjoy the game even just by having a grasp on the characters and their relationships through the anime or manga. 

And, for those who love action games, I think it’s also perfectly fine to simply try this game out first, and then follow the backstory in P5 after. 

Ultimately, my hope is that everyone can experience the world of P5S, in whichever way they prefer.”
