Persona 3 Reload Collaboration Event "Walking the Path of the Moon: Lightning Iron Fist"
[Story Synopsis]
While exploring Tartarus, the Wonders come across an otherworldly space connected to a monorail — the very place where the characters once battled a massive Shadow. The situation closely mirrors a past crisis, and the Wonders must face the looming threat once more. They eventually track down a massive Shadow lurking in the lead car, but the train suddenly starts moving…!?
New 5-Star Character Akihiko Sanada Joins the Roster
Akihiko Sanada from Persona 3 Reload is now available as a new 5-star character in the "PICKUP Phantom Contract," which increases the appearance rate of specific Phantom Thieves.

▼ Pickup ★5 "Akihiko Sanada"
Akihiko Sanada is a 5-star Domination Role character with top-tier area-of-effect damage. By building up "Fighting Spirit," he can unleash powerful all-target attacks. With high critical damage, a special bonus against downed enemies, and a Theurgia skill that guarantees critical hits, he delivers massive damage across the entire battlefield.
Note that P3R characters use Assist instead of ranged attacks, and Theurgia instead of Highlight.

About Persona 5: The Phantom X
Set in Tokyo, Persona 5: The Phantom X is a new-feel RPG where players balance life as a student and a Phantom Thief.
