According to an announcement on Bilibili, a playable demo of Persona 5 X will be available at ChinaJoy 2023. If you pre-register for the game, you’ll be able to get free goods of the game, though it’s unclear what they are. There will also be exclusive events at the convention.
Persona 5 X, or Persona 5: The Phantom X, will be a spin-off of Atlus’s Persona 5 series. It’ll feature a new protagonist and party members, as well as the idea of Persona II users. Characters from the original series, such as Joker, will also make appearances in Persona 5 X as party members. It’s unknown if the playable demo at ChinaJoy 2023 will be the same build that Perfect World plans to use for the second closed beta test. But the second CBT will run some time in Q3 2023.
ChinaJoy 2023 will take place from July 28 to 31, 2023 in Shanghai, China. You’ll be able to find the Persona 5 X booth at N2-03. ChinaJoy, or China Digital Entertainment Expo & Conference, is an international event for the digital entertainment industry. Aside from demos of upcoming games such as Persona 5 X, there will likely be panels for new technology such as the Metaverse.
Persona 5: The Phantom X is in development for mobile devices. We don’t know if it will appear worldwide yet.
