Story And Cast: The First Kingdom

Persona 5 Tactica brings back the iconic Phantom Thieves from Persona 5, excluding certain characters introduced in the Royal edition. The story takes place before the conclusion of Persona 5, during a snowy period prior to the characters’ graduation. The Phantom Thieves find themselves in a peculiar dimension known as The Kingdoms, ruled by an oppressive monarch named Marie. Brainwashed and outnumbered, they are saved by Erina, who reveals the truth about their situation. To rescue their friends, Joker and Morgana must form an alliance with Erina and the Rebel Corps. Additionally, they encounter Toshiro Kasukabe, a Japanese politician whose presence in The Kingdoms is shrouded in mystery.

Story And Cast: The Second Kingdom

The second kingdom in The Kingdoms is set in mid-19th century Japan and ruled by Yoshiki. Although Yoshiki takes on the appearance of Buddha, he conceals a turbulent heart. The Phantom Thieves will disguise themselves as samurai, ninja, and geisha as they navigate this intriguing setting.

Gameplay And Growth

Persona 5 Tactica introduces a grid-based battle system, departing from the turn-based battles typically associated with the series. In addition to targeting enemies and healing allies, players will have control over character placement on the tactical map. The game incorporates elements reminiscent of titles like Final Fantasy Tactics, XCOM, and Mario versus Rabbids. Expect to strategize around elemental strengths and weaknesses, environmental effects, and unique character abilities. The Voltage Gauge, filling as you deal and receive damage, grants access to powerful character-specific skills. Encounter an array of unique foes, navigate interactive stages, and use Growth Points to advance character abilities via skill trees. Frequent visits to the Velvet Room will enhance your Personas’ battle performance through fusion and weapon forging.
