Identity V begins Persona 5 Royal crossover
Horror multiplayer game Identity V is now hosting a new Persona 5 Royal event. As a result, you can now unlock costumes inspired by the Phantom Thieves and more.
The Identity V Persona 5 Royal event began on August 2 and runs until August 31. You’ll be able to complete tasks to unlock the cat-inspired Morgana as a pet. You can also unlock the following crossover costumes, including:
- [S Costume] First Officer- Goro Akechi
- [A Costume] Coordinator – Makoto Niijima
- [A Costume] Mechanic – Ann Takamaki
- [A Costume] Gardener- Haru Okumura, Emote, Portrait, and Graffiti.
You can also get the ‘Regular’ and ‘Souls of Resistance’ costumes from past Identity V crossovers with Persona 5 Royal. “For those who missed the last Persona Crossover Event and were unable to obtain the sought-after costumes, this is the perfect opportunity to join the new activities and complete your collection,” said the press release. Past characters include Joker, Ryuji, Yusuke, and Futaba.
Identity V seems very much inspired by the popular Dead by Daylight. It’s a 1v4 survival game, in which one player plays the monster while four others play the survivors. It’s free to play on PC, Android, and iOS. For now, it’s not available on consoles like the PS5 or Switch yet.
As for the Persona series, Atlus has a mobile spinoff on the way in Persona 5: The Phantom X. It has already been released in some territories on April 18 but will be getting a global launch for both mobile and PC with consoles down the line, according to Persona Central. It seems to have its own storyline and characters with high-quality cutscenes you’d expect from a mainline title. However, it will be gacha-based like Genshin Impact and Zenless Zone Zero.
