Social Hideout of the Phantom Thieves - Joker Social

[KirbyWorshipper2465]

At this point I'm just waiting for KH3 to take my HEART. (Crossover joke)

Maybe after then, that'll allow them to get back to FF7R(emake) afterwards.

Oh, speaking of January, there's probably going to be a leak for a Direct, right? One of the users here implied this yesterday.

Shame that we didn't get much info, but March isn't that far off and at least we got this sick art:

Didn't ask for it, but I like it.

Come on, Hifumi as a phantom thief! That's all I want out of this game!

I'm like, 99% sure they won't add any new party members unless they want to throw off all the balance.

Also, unpopular opinion maybe, but Persona 5 had way too many main characters. Adding another isn't the best idea, considering pre-existing ones have problem with having enough screen-time (looking at you, Haru).

Sadly, I agree. It is hard for me to see how they will utilize Hifumi being in the main story after her palace beyond her just "being there" even worse than Haru.

 

[KirbyWorshipper2465]

I think that a "Persona 5 Complete Edition" seems like the most reasonable expectation for this.

But the real question is, what does the R stand for?

 

[Hinata]

"I hope you are well, this is Joker. As the year ends the voices speaking out awaiting our next move grow louder. However we are closing the curtain for this year. March 2019. We look forward to seeing you again ladies and gentleman. Until then, you’ll just have to wait. Happy new year."

Not much to the dialogue for that trailer, since it's an announcement of an announcement, but for those who are wondering, this is a translation of what Joker said in the P5R trailer.

I'm more curious about this tbh

Spoiler: P5 spoils?

it was part of the PSL 2019 announcement but still...

WHY IS HE THERE???

They could be just using the bath at the same time. Goro hangs out around Yongen-Jaya all the time.

yeah but look at the date lol

 

[osby]

I wouldn't look too much into it, first trailers for P5 had a lot of weird stuff, not just with dates.

 

[Sigran101]

Oh crap, it's December 31!

Spoiler: P5 spoilers

Ren doesn't go to jail! And Akechi lives!

 

[Jovahexeon Joranvexeon]

P5R is real. PS4 only platform so far announced, Mystic still saying Switch is planned.

Eh? He's still claiming such? Where?

And Persona 3 had even more. Most of them weren't relavent in any way shape or form, even when they joined. And most of P4's cast weren't story relavent outside of their dungeon. P5 is the smallest offender of this out of the 3, and Hifumi was planned for P5 vanilla.

Spoiler: P5 spoilers

Plus based on that image there is extra time anyway since Ren doesn't go to jail. And with Akechi alive they're already changing things.

Let me kiss or hug Ryuji he needs it.

We have to see what is going on FIRST before saying something.

Yaoi options in Ryuji and Akechi?

I'm not predicting anything. I'm just saying I want it and trying to refute the argument as to why it shouldn't happen.

R could stand for ''Return."

''The voices crying out await our next move."

I haven't beat the game just yet so I don't know. No spoilers, but just something I thought of in the event it's not a straight up re-release but some kind of new mission of the Phantom Thieves instead.

they made a sequel to P2, i'm sure they could do the same with P5

 

[amageish]

Well, good job announcing that announcement ATLUS... Good to know that P5R is coming officially, but I don't see why they wouldn't say it was an enhanced port if it was an enhanced port or a spin-off if it was a spin-off....

I'm more curious about this tbh

WHY IS HE THERE???

It's now December 31st in Japan, so Ren's living his ordinary life on the 31st before realizing he can buy tickets to the Persona concert. I doubt it's meant to hint at more then that...

Spoiler: P5 Spoilers

Akechi being there is odd, but he's also one of the most popular characters in Japan. Logically Akechi shouldn't be there, but also logically Joker shouldn't still be living with Sojiro on December 31st 2018 or be able to buy tickets to an event based on his own video game franchise (unless the Persona franchise exists as video games within the Persona timeline, which wouldn't be wholly illogical given how Catherine seems to exist in the Persona timeline and... never mind I'm overthinking this...).

I do still expect them to keep him alive in P5R, but I don't think this is evidence of it.

It'd be like Bayonetta 2, except that it won't be stuck with just the one console company.

 

[Teeb147]

I think they might stay away from his Wild Card ability. Just using Arsene would give him more identity and be easier.

I hope not, I'd want this to represent more the persona series as a whole, and Arsene could be the default, sure. I just want the character to be diverse and interesting. Put jack frost and pixie to switch with and have different b moves (maybe diff magic) for it or something and I'm sold.
Anyway, just playing with ideas. Other rpg elements could make it real interesting too.

So long as we all enjoy it

On his twitter:

There was a problem fetching the tweet

I honestly think it'll happen. Re-releasing P5 on just PS4 again just doesn't make much sense to me IMHO, even with some extra side content. Re-releasing it as a multiplat game makes so much more sense given the demand for it, but hey, who knows? Maybe I'm wrong; just gonna have to wait until March to find out.

Yes. Besides, Atlus would be remiss not to have their biggest mascot in there somehow, if the whole "DLC newcomers don't come with extra spirits" theory comes true.

And Toad fans would feel a little better about seeing somebody new with a "bodyguard" NPC.

 

[kirbsmash]

Kirby: PERSONA!

mE: my baby boy yes

 

[Tree Gelbman]

There's a Persona 5S, which leads me to think that's the Switch re-release.

And this? This isn't a re-release, but we'll see.

Mystic deleted his twitter.

Man, that sucks. I guess people were really going nuts on him. At least people here were chill and respectful...

Is Vegeban still at GAMEFAQS? I'm worried about them.

I still question why that silly man even decided to report his sources' findings there. It's like deliberately putting your hand into a beehive and expecting to be fine.

Being the Akechi fan that I am I do enjoy seeing him spend time with Ren. But this is one of those things that I have to admit is just strange.

Was there a tweet or something that went along with that picture that makes you think that? Because I don't see anything that implies he's waiting to buy a ticket. It just looks like any other scene from the game.

 

[PK-remling Fire]

Spoiler: P5 Spoilers

The main thing I was hoping for the re-release was that they'd flesh out Akechi more, so seeing that he might be able to be saved is pretty promising.

It's a screenshot taken from this video which ends with him deciding to buy a ticket.
