Persona 5: Global Launch of Phantom X Speculated

Persona 5: The Phantom X Global Launch Under Consideration by SEGA
SEGA's recent financial report hints at a potential global release for Persona 5: The Phantom X (P5X). The report indicates that the game's performance in its initial launch regions is exceeding expectations, and a global expansion is actively being considered.
Limited Open Beta Currently Underway

Licensed by Atlus, P5X initially launched in a soft-launch open beta phase in China on April 12, 2024, followed by Hong Kong, Macau, South Korea, and Taiwan on April 18. Perfect World Games (South Korea) publishes the title, with development handled by Black Wings Game Studio (China).
Players control a new silent protagonist, "Wonder," a high school student who moonlights as a Phantom Thief, fighting societal injustices alongside familiar faces and new characters like YUI. The game features the series' signature turn-based combat, social simulation, and dungeon crawling, but incorporates a gacha system for character acquisition. The protagonist's initial Persona is Janosik, inspired by Slovakian folklore and embodying a Robin Hood archetype. The Joker, from the main Persona 5 series, is also a member of Wonder's team.

New Roguelike Game Mode: Heart Rail
A recent gameplay video showcases the new "Heart Rail" roguelike mode, reminiscent of Honkai: Star Rail's Simulated Universe. This mode features power-up choices, varied maps, and stage completion rewards.
SEGA's Strong Performance and Future Plans
SEGA reported robust sales for its full game category, including Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth, Persona 3 Reload, and Football Manager 2024. The company is restructuring its business, creating a new "Gaming Business" segment focused on online gaming expansion into North America. This will become a third pillar alongside their existing business models.
SEGA projects increased sales and profits for FY2025, with the Full Game segment anticipating 93 billion Yen (approximately $597 million USD) in revenue. A new Sonic title is also slated for release next year.
