Fan Art of the Phantom Thieves of Hearts from Persona 5 Royal

Fans of the Persona franchise are absolutely psyched for the multi-platform re-release of Persona 5 Royal on October 21, 2022. Are you one of them?

Originally released in October 2019 in Japan, and March 2020 for the rest of the world, this RPG created by Atlus revolves around a group of vigilante high schoolers who have dubbed themselves the Phantom Thieves of Hearts and traverse the Metaverse, a metaphysical realm where subconscious human desires take on physical – and sometimes dangerous – properties. There, they work to remove malevolent intent from people’s hearts.

They each have unlocked the power of a Persona, physical manifestations of their psyche and subconscious used for combat. This revamp of the original game adds a bunch of new features that are sure to delight players, like all new bosses, an extra semester to explore, and the introduction of Violet, the newest member of the Phantom Thieves.

Now, nearly two years after its global release, fans new and old can enjoy this beloved game on a number of platforms; Nintendo Switch, the Playstation 5, the Xbox One, the Xbox Series X/S, and on Windows PCs.

To help get you in the right frame of mind to delve into the fabulous and psychologically stimulating game that has received universal acclaim and stands out as the franchise’s best seller, we’ve compiled some amazing artwork featuring the P5 Royal Phantoms Thieves who’ve stolen the hearts of fans worldwide. Take a peek at the illustrations below.

Protagonist / Joker

A second-year high school student at Shujin Academy who was forced to transfer there and move from his hometown due to being expelled in a scandal involving a corrupt politician. As his Persona powers awaken, initially taking the form of Arsene, Joker unlocks a myriad of skills and abilities that aid him on his adventure. One such ability is the Wild Card ability which allows him to fuse together and create all new Personas, as well as control the Personas and perhaps persuade them to enter a contract with him.

Kasumi Yoshizawa / Violet

A character who made her debut in Royal, Kasumi is a first-year student at Shujin Academy who transferred around the same time as Joker. She initially has a negative view of the Phantom Thieves, believing that people were becoming too reliant on them rather than solving their own problems. Through events in the game, however, she begins to see things and herself in a different light. The initial form of her Persona, Cendrillon, and her rapiers, level shotguns, and rifles, make her a worthy comrade on the battlefield.

Ryuji Sakamoto / Skull

Ryuji is Joker’s first companion who may have a bit of a short fuse but is also a nice guy. He earned a reputation as a delinquent after raising a hand to someone mocking his troubled family life, which earned him a broken leg and a suspension for the school’s track team, of which he was the star runner. User of the Persona Captain Kidd, Ryuji opts for clubs and shotguns on the battlefield.

Unfortunately, she suffers from an inferiority complex when it comes to her sister Sae, who she feels works too hard for her benefit after the passing of their father. It’s through her intelligence that she discovered the true identities of the Phantom Thieves prior to her Persona Johanna awakening. She fights alongside them with revolvers and tekko.
