The new event will explore a brand-new Palace with challenging boss battles to earn rewards, which can be used for Contracts, the game’s gacha mechanic.

About P5X, our critic said:

“Persona5: The Phantom X is off to a great start, managing to feel very much like the core series, despite the gacha systems. There is a ton of game to dive in to here, including mini games, events, and a social hub that can be customized, while also delivering on that inherent Persona vibe.

The combat flows quickly, the story grabs you and doesn’t let go, and the social systems remain engaging and fun. While the gacha systems will be enough to turn people off, so far, I’m having a blast with Persona5: The Phantom X and will keep coming back for more.”

What is new in Persona5 The Phantom X Version 3.4?

New Special Event: Crossroads of Fate: Laboratory Arc Part 1

The official synopsis for Laboratory Arc Part 1’s New Story Content is:

A completely original story with both P5X and P5R taken into account is the focus of Laboratory Arc Part 1. Wonder takes Lufel to Shibuya to cheer him up after a bad nightmare. However, a malfunction in the Metaverse Navigator causes both of them to be forcefully sent to the Metaverse immediately after they leave.

They arrive in a false Palace, but find that they can’t sense any malice from it. While exploring, they bump into the mysterious Phantom Thief, Violet, who mistakes them for Shadows and draws her sword against them.

SEGA has also shared exactly what you will earn during this event. Players will team up with Violet and other members of the Phantom Thieves of Hearts to conquer a new Palace.

In each stage, players will be searching for Abnormal Rebel Coins. Abnormal Rebel Coins can be exchanged for rewards in the exchange shop. In addition to coins, players can earn 8-Sided Dice and other rewards by clearing stages with Meta Jewels and Loaded Dice granted after completing missions.

In this event, you can use the 8-Sided Dice and Loaded Dice collected by playing Crossroads of Fate: Laboratory Arc Part 1 to explore Mementos. Various events where you can gain rewards will occur as you progress.

After progressing to a certain point in your exploration, you will run into the boss of that route. Defeat the boss to proceed further. Collect Flowers during your exploration to exchange for Gold Tickets, Kagura Bells, and other rewards.

New Boss Battles

Defeat powerful bosses based on the Distortion Level to collect Loaded Dice and Joy Medals, which can be exchanged for Wonder’s exclusive weapon and other rewards.

Once a level has been cleared, stamina mode will be unlocked. In stamina mode, you can challenge the stage by consuming stamina and obtain Abnormal Rebel Coins and other rewards by defeating the boss.

New Character: Kasumi Yoshizawa

Kasumi Yoshizawa will appear at Café Leblanc in Yongen-Jaya. You can earn various rewards by completing related City Life activities.

The new 5-star Phantom Thief Kasumi Yoshizawa from Persona 5 Royal makes her debut in the Most Wanted Phantom Idol Contract, which has a higher drop rate for certain Phantom Thieves.

  •  5-star Bless Assassin
  • Exclusive Weapon: Silent Pistol, which increases her critical damage.
  • Passive: When activating her Highlight, she does not spend the Highlight gauge and can inflict critical hits. When an ally activates a Highlight, Kasumi’s own Highlight increases in damage, making her the perfect pairing for any of your favorites.

This contract is available now until April 16th, 2026, 1:59 AM (UTC).

What are the P5X Version 3.4 rewards?
