We get to see gameplay and story cutscene, including a new character. She is a little girl with red hair and a peculiar hairstyle, but her identity is not revealed.

The trailer also includes the Japanese release date, which is February 20, 2020.

Those who will purchase the first print of the game will receive a Persona Series Battle BGM Set DLC for free.

A special edition titled Persona 5 Scramble Treasure Box  has also been announced including plenty of goodies.

To be more specific, it comes with a Setting Materials Collection artbook (48 pages), two soundtrack CDs, a Blu Ray with the making of of the theme song, a bag, and a towel.

It’ll cost 13,800 yen plus taxes, while the standard edition will cost 8,800 yen plus taxes. 

Persona 5 Scramble: The Phantom Strikers was originally codenamed simply “P5S,” and it was officially announced back in April

Recently, we also saw a trailer that teased today’s reveal clued us into the fact that the Phantom Thieves will travel around Japan in the game, as opposed as the original Persona 5, which is set exclusively in Tokyo. 

The game is coming for PS4 and Nintendo Switch, and it’s developed by the Musou masters at Koei Tecmo’s Omega Force.

Speaking of Persona 5, Atlus is also about to release an enhanced version named Persona 5 Royal in Japan, even if we don’t know when it’s coming west just yet besides a generic “Spring 2020.”
