Persona 5: The Phantom X aims to broaden its audience with the launch of a dedicated social media account for its English version.

The livestream promises to be a star-studded event, featuring 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.
