Persona 5X Q&A

Do I need to play P5/P5R before playing P5X?

P5X is a completely separate experience, allowing people who have never touched Persona games to play without fear of spoilers. You can start directly with P5X!

What is P5X's gameplay like?

City Life

  • Social stats and Confidant levels (Synergy) now go up to 20, with no connection to Arcanas
  • Time is divided into "Yesterday", "Today" and "Tomorrow" instead of a calendar system
  • Players receive 5 Action Points (AP) daily to spend on activities like work, movies, reading or social links
  • Mini-games and side quests don't require AP

Metaverse

  • Mementos floors are no longer randomly generated and have exploration percentages
  • Palaces remain explorable after collapse, also with completion tracking
