*starting the trailer*
"Oh my god, this looks exactly like Persona 5!"
*halfway through the trailer*
"Oh… this looks exactly like Persona 5"
haha, yes. I personally I'm totally okay with missing this game. I will admit the owl mascot is very cute, though.

I wonder what phone can run this. Not sure mine could. Looks like it could be a paid title too.

Graphics are nice. Looks like a DLC story for P5 and thats not a bad thing!

This game looks beat for beat like P5 and not in a good way. Guess it isn't plagiarism if the company that owns the IP let's you do it so whatever.

I have no interest in this if it isn't coming to consoles and is gacha-heavy.

I can't believe they ripped off P5

Personally I can't wait until they move away from the P5 aesthetic and do something else

Its also coming to PC, I'm gonna be honest, if this game is just Geshin Impact Persona or Octopath Traveler: Champions of the Continent Persona i will definitely play (btw i would love octopath mobile on steam)

Oh that's big. More annoyed it's not announced for Japan or the west

The MC's thief outfit pretty much seems to replicate P5 MC's outfit.

Feels like if you just show their silhouette, it would be incredibly difficult to distinguish. Heck even the all out attack ending animation is the exact same.

Rather just hear about P6 instead of this.

Can you Imagine if someone got hold of this trailer earlier and trolled the whole internet that this is Persona 6? 😭

So Chinese Persona 5 mobile Gatcha. Not something I would want to play myself, but I can see myself getting some entertainment watching someone else play this.

I really like the design of the owl character, shame it's probably never coming to a mainline game now.

I'm curious if this is a title that even leaves China. Seen a lot of interesting licensed titles pop up there and never show up in the rest of the world.

Wonder if they made a mistake in the art (all the velvet siblings have yellow eyes and names based on Frankenstein.) or if it's part of the plot.
Probably plot, her design reminds me of the original teaser image for this game.

If you told me this was Persona 6, I'd believe you.

This gonna end up looking better than Persona 6 visually, isn't it?

That character is a party member.

I legit thought this was a P5 Royal screenshot.

if this game is China only why the heck is all the voice acting in Japanese? Anyone find that really strange?

Chinese people are weebs too. All seriousness: I've heard of Chinese Genshin players using Japanese dubs in games where Mandarin is available.

I do feel like Japan at least will get this game.

But it may have a huge script considering the title so maybe global isn't on the table yet for at least a while

It's so funny because two years ago "mobile only" was this huge disappointment. But I feel like at least some of us are turning this around.

That said if this is China only I'm just gonna stop worrying about it until we maybe hear about other regions and if not better to just pretend it doesn't exist.

Hope people enjoy this and Atlus makes some coin off it--if nothing else more people will get to enjoy that outrageous soundtrack.

This also is far from the first time China has received an exclusive mobile game from another country's IP.

My kid still never shuts up about the Chinese PvZ or CoD game.

Wasn't the Shenmue mobile game going to be only in China as well?
