Perfect World Games has released new details on the upcoming mobile and PC game Persona 5: The Phantom X during a preview live stream earlier today. The stream featured gameplay footage from the upcoming beta, and showcased some of the new TA characters and their Persona IIs.
Miyu Sahara (code name: Puppet) and her Persona II: Nemertes. A first-year high-schooler and daughter of a local member of the House of Representatives. She may look gentle and polite on the outside, but in reality she has a strong will of her own.
Going against her parents’ expectations for her future plans, she runs away from home and resolves to support herself on her own.
YUI and her Persona II: Apseudes. A mysterious girl who the protagonist meets in the virtual world. She is obsessed with acquiring land and the two decide to grow crops on it, at the suggestion of the protagonist.
She has a naive and romantic personality, occasionally revealing a clumsy side.
Hina Nishimori (code name: Riddle) and her Persona II: Daeira. A 10-year-old children’s clothing model, who was chosen by an advertising agency due to her cute and delicate looks.
She is very active, curious and likes to follow adults and ask questions. When she doesn’t get the answers she wants, she starts to pout.
Toshiya Sumi (code name: Sepia) and his Persona II: Gorgyra. An unemployed young man who frequents the fishing pond, and is known as the ‘Fishing Hermit’.
He has a record for catching the king of the fish without using a hook. He is not very old but has a unique understanding of life and emotion, and often says unexpected things.
