Persona 5: The Phantom X Version 2.7 Update to Celebrate Half-Year Anniversary

Sega announced that it will be releasing its version 2.7 update for free-to-play title Persona 5: The Phantom X on December 25, 2026. It will also see the game’s international version receiving new content at the same time as the game’s East Asian version, as it adds Persona 5′s wardens Caroline and Justine as playable characters. Sega will be hosting a special livestream ahead of the update at 12pm UTC on December 23, 2025.

Persona 5: The Phantom X is currently available on PC, iOS, and Android. It released in China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Korea in 2024, with the international and Japanese versions released in June 2025. Recent updates have been released in an accelerated manner to catch the international and Japanese release updates with East Asian version, though the East Asian version is still significantly ahead in main story and other content.

It is developed by Perfect World’s Black Wings Game Studio under supervision from Atlus. The game is set in the same modern-day Tokyo as Persona 5, though it features a new set of Phantom Thieves led by a new protagonist codenamed Wonder. It features a new story where desires have been lost as well as various side events and stories, with the original Phantom Thieves appearing in special contracts. The game features similar dungeon-crawling and social sim elements to Persona 5, including new palaces, Personas, modes, and mini-games, while other elements have been adapted.
