SEGA today (October 31, 2025) has released an update for its ongoing RPG “Persona 5: The Phantom X” (available on PC / iOS / Android), launching a special Halloween-themed gift distribution event.
The gifts include the health-recovery item “Coffee Candy,” as well as items that increase affection with synergy targets: “Truffle Chocolate” and “Chocobam 3-Pack.” The distribution period runs until November 15, 9:59 AM. In conjunction with this event, a special Halloween illustration by the game’s art staff has also been unveiled.
Additionally, the limited-time revival of ★5 Thief YUI has begun. YUI is a character who can perform follow-up attacks immediately after an ally activates their attack skill. A special ★5 weapon for her, “Cyber Jambazer,” is also currently available through the “Silent Smoke” weapon gacha event.

Persona 5: The Phantom X
★5 Thief “YUI” returns for a limited-time revival!
Halloween-themed gifts also available
Sega Corporation is pleased to announce that the ★5 Thief “YUI” has made a special return in its popular mobile and PC game, Persona 5: The Phantom X (hereafter referred to as P5X). In appreciation of our players’ continued support, we are also distributing Halloween-themed gifts. Don’t miss out on either!
◆ Limited-Time ★5 Thief “YUI” is Back!
The ★5 Thief “YUI,” who first appeared as a fellow combatant known as a “Thief Doll,” has returned! She is now featured in the special limited-time “PICKUP Thief Contract”, which increases the chance of encountering specific thieves. Additionally, her exclusive ★5 weapon, “Cyber Jambazer,” can be obtained through the “Silent Smoke” gacha event.
Furthermore, since the recent Ver. 2.3 update, a new gacha system called “TARGET” has been added alongside the previous method, “CHANCE.” While “TARGET” requires more pulls to guarantee a ★5 and offers a lower overall rate for ★5s compared to “CHANCE,” it ensures that only the featured (picked) ★5 thief appears.
Additionally, after 165 pulls using the “TARGET” system, players will receive a special reward: "★5 Thief Lottery Ticket 01," which grants one random draw from among all ★5 thieves available in the “Thief Draft.”

Event Duration: Until November 13, 2025 (Thursday), 10:59 AM
▼ Featured Thief: ★5 “YUI” (Codename: V)
Specializing in single-target attacks, YUI can perform follow-up strikes immediately after an ally activates their attack skill. She can select one ally as a “Friend,” and when she activates her highlight ability or targets that friend, she unleashes more powerful follow-ups. Her damage increases against enemies afflicted with paralysis.
