Beyond Persona 3’s female protagonist, the story will also focus on the characters of Persona 5.
The sequel will feature 28 Persona users, and both the male and female protagonists of Persona 3 will exist at the same time.
According to the report, you don’t need to have consumed related media—including the first Persona Q and the Persona 5 game and anime—to enjoy Persona Q2’s standalone story.
