■ An Introduction to the Story and the New Realms

 

• “To see is to love!” – Yoshiki’s Kingdom: A realm of surveillance

 

In this adventure, the Thieves wander into a Kingdom that resembles Bakumatsu-era Japan, a complete opposite of the European-style townscape from Marie’s Kingdom.

Before they can gather their bearings, they run into a woman named Yuki who is being assailed by enemies.

Upon saving her, however, they are promptly designated as wanted criminals and hunted down. According to Yuki, while Yoshiki—the general of the Kingdom—appears to serve as a “well-meaning ruler for his country”, this is merely a I.

 

Surveillance cameras have been installed all over the country to “protect” the citizens. If anybody shows even a hint of resisting Yoshiki, they are arrested and made to participate in a “Labor of Love”—a forced labor camp.

Resolving to stand against this dictatorship, the Thieves start off their resistance by visiting bases and releasing the trapped people.

 

 

• Stealing the “eyes” of surveillance through disguise – Double Pincer Attack: Mach II!

 

 

In order to fool Yoshiki’s Aizen Squad and network of surveillance cameras, the Phantom Thieves
take Yuki’s advice and visit a silk shop in the town.

Disguising themselves as samurai, geishas, local inhabitants, and more, they break up into two teams: one to divert the attention of the Aizen Squad, and one to rescue the people and dismantle the surveillance system.

 

 

They successfully execute their operation, but the celebrations are cut when an incensed Yoshiki suddenly descends from the sky.

“Hohoho… such an irreverent attitude… But you are forgiven!”
“After all, I was fiiinally able to find you because of it.”
“Who? Who, you ask?”
“Toshirooo! Who the hell else could it possibly be!?”

 

■ Akechi and Kasumi Make an Appearance in the Repaint Your Heart Challenge Pack DLC!

 

The Repaint Your Heart Pack DLC, which is scheduled to release at the same time as the base game: November 17, 2023, will features Goro Akechi and Kasumi Yoshizawa with an additional new story! It unveils the truth behind the Arsène mural that suddenly appears in Tokyo and the elusive street artist Guernica. Make sure to check it out!

 

 

Story

Guernica is an anonymous artist who treats the entire city as her canvas, completing massive artworks in the span of a single night.

As her bold projects draw the attention of the world, mysterious graffiti begin to pop up all over the city.

Among them is a depiction of Arsène, an existence that should be unknown outside of Persona users.

After being informed of this artwork by Kasumi Yoshizawa, Joker heads to the scene.

While discussing with Goro Akechi, who, by chance, had also been investigating this incident, a mysterious voice suddenly calls out:

“I need your power… to retrieve the heart!”
