The Phantom Thieves Ride Again, Persona 5 Strikers Release Date Officially Revealed

After a leak last week, it’s now official. The band is back together again, taking players back into the Metaverse to take on a slew of new shadows intent on imprisoning peoples hearts. Atlus has revealed that Persona 5 Strikers will be releasing on February 23rd for the PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, and Steam. However, players who pre-order the Digital Deluxe Edition will gain access to the game on February 19th, a full four days before its release.

Persona 5 Strikers is a continuation of the Persona 5 story, following the crew on a summer vacation that quickly goes sour. The team at Atlus have said that the game can be enjoyed no matter your knowledge of the original game, but having played it will definitely help you understand the characters a bit easier. The Phantom Thieves will be trekking across six cities in Japan, cooking, helping those in need, and just making the most of their trip. P5 Strikers features a new hybrid battle system which meshes together an in your face, explosive style with moments to pause and pick your attack. Players will also be able to ambush enemies to gain an advantage. All of the Phantom Thieves will be playable, giving players a lot to choose from in each battle.
