The obtaining of weapons inPersona 5: The Phantom Xis every bit as vital to your progress as it would be in Persona 5 itself - or pretty much any other Persona game, for that matter. Given the sheer scope of The Phantom X’s gameplay, the weapon acquisition system can feel instantly overwhelming.
Thankfully, it’s not significantly more complicated than it would be in most non-gacha JRPGs. We’ll go over the methodology, and then we’ll hop into the heart of the matter by covering every weapon in Persona 5: The Phantom X. Aim for the best, but in the meanwhile, do feel free to equip the rest!
How To Get New Weapons
There are two primary ways to get weapons in Persona 5: The Phantom X. The first, bypurchasing them from shops, is certainly the method that many of us will feel most immediately comfortable with. But there’s also theWeapon Banner, which is a distinctly more gacha-esque approach.
Shops
You’ll unlock the weapon shop throughnormal play, much as you would in Persona 5 itself. Indeed,Munehisa Iwai’s Untouchablereturns to provide this service (among other shops).
This being a gacha, however, there’s something of a twist to the process. Whiletwo-star and three-star weapons are purchasable by spending yen, thefour-star and five-star fare requires separate currencies:
The Weapon Banner
TheWeapon Banner, too, opens up in due time. Just progress through the early story events; you’ll get there. To purchase items from here, you must save up somePlatinum Milicoins.
How, pray tell, does one get Platinum Milicoins? Through a variety of ways:
Ultimately,the acquisition of Platinum Milicoins is a somewhat slow-going process,albeit one withenough separate sources so as not to be a total hassle to obtain them.
All Weapons In Persona 5: The Phantom X
This list will undoubtedly expand over time, but as of theglobal launch version of Persona 5: The Phantom X, the following weapons are available.
The stats we cite for each weapon reflect theirbase forms. They can be - and should be - elevated through upgrades, includingforging and overclocking, in order to reach their full potential. A base-form four-star weapon, for example, may be far less effective than a souped-up three-star weapon!
