The Persona 5 Royal Nintendo Switch release is fast approaching, and if the smash hit RPG wasn't already enough to steal your heart, maybe an official card game will help.
Atlus has announced it has teamed up with Pandasaurus Games to release a Persona 5-themed cooperative card game by Emerson Matsuuchi - best known for designing the Century: Eastern Wonders and Foundations of Rome board games.
It's scheduled to arrive on October 21st next year, but we have any screenshots or information just yet. The creator has shared a brief description though of what players can expect:
“Players will take on the roles of their favorite Phantom Thieves and fight to change the world in this cooperative card-based strategy game.”
Pandasaurus says it's excited to adapt Persona 5 Royal to "tabletops everywhere in 2023". Here's the teaser graphic:
The Switch version of P5R will arrive later this month. You can see this game in action in our previous post:

Wait, is this the last announcement for the anniversary, or?
Edit: Nope, it's not related. Weird.
interesting but perhaps I shall get it
@Dom_31 Atlus still hasn't sufficiently milked this iteration of the series yet. Once they release the fighting game and kart racer spinoffs, we might hear about the next mainline entry.
The cow has officially been milked dry. It’s annoying because the game’s brilliant but I was ready to see what’s next about 5 years ago.
That "We will steal your heart on this date" loses its impact about 10 times more each time it’s used, seriously xD
@Ralizah Atlus in a nutshell
Looking forward to buying my Persona 5 10 year anniversary edition
I love how this is only tenuous Nintendo news and NL reports it anyway.
Atlus gotta fund the better games, ports and remasters somehow, right?
Persona now exists to fill the Atlus war chest.
@Dom_31 Jeez, I did not realize P5 was already six years old. And P5R almost 3 years?! Where did the time go?
Persona 5 Royal Flush.
Altus needs to announce a new Trauma Center & Catherine.
… Wun can only hope.
@nessisonett I’m convinced we’re still getting a Persona 5 Arena first.
Would also not be opposed to a Persona kart racer.
P4 OG released in 2008. P5 released in 2016.
Atlus is going to string us alongside for a while longer with spin-offs. Reveal the title next year with a late 2024 release. Would not be surprised if it was 2025.
