Persona 5: The Phantom X Releasing Globally

First Announcement From Western Account

Persona 5: The Phantom X (P5X) is gearing up to expand its global reach with the launch of a dedicated social media account for its English version. The release date for this eagerly awaited version might be unveiled during the upcoming livestream. On May 15, P5X Official West announced via Twitter (X) that they will host their first major announcement on a livestream scheduled for May 15 at 7:00 AM PT on Atlus' official western YouTube channel.

Check out the timetable below to see when the stream starts in your region:

The livestream will feature special guests from the game's cast, including Kaede Hondo, the voice of Motoha Arai, and Chika Anzai, the voice of Yui. They will be joined by P5X Chief Producer Yohsuke Uda and Development Director Yusuke Nitta from ATLUS, as well as Development Producer Jun Matsunaga and Live Ops Director Yuta Sakai from SEGA.

P5X was initially released in selected regions in April 2024. Fans are buzzing with speculation that the Western release might be announced during the upcoming stream, especially since the developers hinted at their plans for English localization during the game's first anniversary livestream. The official account teased that while the release date for Japan will definitely be announced, the question remains, "but what about the West? Be sure to tune in and find out!"

Japanese Release Coming Soon

The livestream will also shed more light on P5X's Japanese (JP) release, which was announced during the game's first anniversary celebration. Atlus has confirmed that it will launch in Japan in Summer 2025, and pre-registrations are currently open on P5X's JP website.

Additionally, Sega Sammy Holdings, a Japanese global holding company and conglomerate, mentioned in their Fiscal Year 2025 Results Presentation on May 12 that P5X is part of their roll-out schedule, slated for release "In or after FY2026/3" (April 1, 2025, to March 31, 2026), with a target launch this summer.
