Persona 5 Strikers Western Release Date Leaked, Coming to PS4, Switch and PC

Persona 5 Strikers will launch on February 23, 2021, for PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch and PC, according to a leaked trailer. An unlisted YouTube video revealed the news, which was spotted by Wario64 on Twitter, and rehosted by Gematsu in a new report. The trailer summarizes the story of the game and shows off some slick footage of the combat, featuring fan favourites like Morgana and Ryuji quipping their way through proceedings. We also get a glimpse at some of the bosses from Strikers before a title card reveals the release date and platforms for the Persona 5 spin-off, which launched in Japan on February 20 earlier this year under the title of Persona 5 Scramble: The Phantom Strikers.

We won't have to wait too long to play it in the west, as Persona 5 Strikers is launching on PS4, Nintendo Switch and PC on February 23, 2021. The trailer notes that you'll be able to pre-order the game via the official website, but the Persona 5 Strikers page isn't live yet. Perhaps ATLUS had planned to reveal the game during The Game Awards - regardless, it seems like the cat is out of the bag...
