O melhor lado da Persona 5 The Phantom X
Takeyuki Kiuchi: A salesperson and former professional baseball player. Once a promising athlete, a six-year old Motoha managed to score a home run against him ten years prior, embarrassing him in front of his colleagues and the media.
They exist in the protagonist's cognition. In the real world, the protagonist either knows them, or has met or heard about them, which even he does not necessarily need to have realized.
Like Persona 5, the dungeon crawling portion takes place in the Metaverse, a realm created from subconscious desires that consists of Mementos and Palaces.
Lufel explains that humanity's hopes and desires are being stolen, including Nagisa's. While attempting to leave the Metaverse, the pair are attacked by Shadows, creatures formed from warped desires who attack humans on sight. Nagisa awakens his Persona, Jánošík, and is able to defeat the shadows with Lufel's help, allowing them to return to the real world.
Tamayo Yoshida: A second-year high school student and a member of the school female baseball team who wants Motoha Arai to start playing baseball again.
There are two different stories happening around the same time, the main story and CrossFates. The main story entails the protagonist, Lufel and their team of Phantom Thieves exploring the Metaverse for a singular goal, figuring out what is causing everyone to lose their desires.
When it comes to the overworld, very few things have seen changes. Many of the locations (such as Shibuya and Yongen-Jaya) resemble their original game counterparts and activities (like batting and fishing) are also unchanged. However, there are some new locations to visit, such as Zoshigaya, and some new activities like playing music or soccer. There is also a gachapon (and as of Update 3.0.2 a claw game) the protagonist can play and try to get rewards that can be used to decorate the protagonist’s house.
They also appear within the CrossFate storyline where it is revealed they exist in a parallel world to the protagonist's Persona 5 The Phantom X group of Phantom Thieves.
Many of these characters also serve as confidants and/or have side quests that the protagonist can do.

Most of these targets tend to have their crimes heavily watered down compared to those from the original Persona 5, with crimes mostly arranging from public indecency or financial extortion.
Not to mention moving around on mobile is clunky - I save all palace/mementos exploration for PC where I know the controls are more reliable... I really hope this game doesn't die within a year, but it seems like it will at this rate.
In the Japanese demo shown at Tokyo Game Show 2024, the cutscenes were altered to show blood in the protagonist's awakening much like how the awakening in Persona 5 were handled.
The gameplay isn't bad, but it's clear that they've decided to focus on finding more ways to get people to spend rather than creating an enjoyable experience. Especially when we have previous versions to compare to, the global version is way stingier, consistently giving less rewards and increasing prices.
During class, the protagonist struggles to stay awake and drifts off. Once he awakens, he finds himself within the Velvet Room, and is welcomed in by Igor and Merope.
It combines elements of social simulation, as the protagonist uses his free time to raise stats and forge bonds with characters, and dungeon crawling in the alternate world known as the Metaverse. The cognitive versions of the people met in the city, including the Phantom Thieves of Hearts from the original game, can be summoned for use in the Metaverse through a gacha system.
