Holy crap that is an incredible advertisement.

Looks like a fan hype edit.

u/Perspectivelessly 3d ago

Doesn't hurt that the P3R version of It's Going Down Now is an absolute giga banger

17

u/ArcturusSatellaPolar 2d ago

Isn't that the only version of It's Going Down Now?

u/JesusSandro 2d ago

That's what makes it so special!

2

u/Standard-Vacation403 2d ago

Fun fact in april 2025. Someone did make a fan edit of arknights collabs x P3r... So their dream come true... 

203

u/Middle_Bottom 3d ago

Perfectly captured the vibe of persona. Honestly amazing.

And Laterano is quite literally the perfect place for this collab.

38

u/Hunt_Nawn Arknights/Nikke/Azur Lane/Limbus Company/Arknights Endfield 3d ago

I'm honestly really curious when Mostima, Lemuen, and etc interacts with them.

44

u/Middle_Bottom 3d ago

We do have a scene in the PV where we see Vannini + Amiya and Idida so there's some hope.

I'm honestly more curious at how the Laterans will react to the SEES members pointing their guns towards themselves lmao.

11

u/Hunt_Nawn Arknights/Nikke/Azur Lane/Limbus Company/Arknights Endfield 3d ago

Lmao yea it's going to be pretty damn funny, can't wait to see the story which they always cook hard with them.

12

u/HibikiAss Forever Utamacross fan 3d ago

Now we wait for blue archive collab in Laterano

I see Amiya with glock...I smell foreshadowing

Graphic design went so incredibly hard

It's like watching 2 Graphic Designers blowing eachother and this is the spat on the ceiling

u/scoutscope hyperglazer + bluepoggers 3d ago

stop i’m hard again

u/Sleepy_Toaster 3d ago

Genuinely suprised that they actually make a better collab PV than the Black Birthday MV Ave Mujica collab.

Also I'm happy that sugar-free ice cream-chan is back. I hope she does nothing but selling cursed ice cream again.

57

u/Razor4884 Endfield | Arknights 3d ago

Sugar-free carbonated water flavored ice cream...

11

u/Hielfield 3d ago

I thought it was surströmming ice cream or smth

5

u/Kyoketsusho 2d ago

Magallan already makes that in her skin

16

u/billyshears55 ARKNIGHTS 3d ago

They will make an even better AveMygo PV when the third season releases and they do another collab, trust (if this happens I will be so happy)

109

u/HeartUnderBruhh 3d ago

Nikke take notes, this is how you do collabs.

Honestly never doubt Hypergryph with their collabs because they can put a lot of effort into it.

31

u/DukeOfStupid Birb Wife (HSR/ZZZ/HI3rd) 3d ago edited 3d ago

I'm curious how they'll do with Endfield Collabs.

I assume it's still a bit too early to start implementing them, but I'm a bit shocked they didn't do a Persona Collab alongside Arknights as some sort of big Persona themed cross promotion, then again it's not like we've had Fate ZZZ or Genshin.

9

u/Jaggedrain 2d ago

If they were smart they'd let us buy UI skins that change the whole UI. I'm not joking when I say I would pay 10 dollars to make my Endfield UI pink and sparkly (yes I bought the Ave Mujica UI and have zero regrets)

1

u/Razor4884 Endfield | Arknights 2d ago

I wish they'd eventually do a NieR:Automata collab I've been hoping for forever. Kinda depends on if Lowlight is a fan of it or not, though, which I'm unsure of.

34

u/Global_Rin NIKKE 3d ago

Well, I didn’t have to scroll down far to see Nikke’s collab with Persona mentioned.

As a Commander, yep, our collab is….meh.

16

u/JamesSH1328 Persona 5: The Phantom X 3d ago

This is even better than Persona collab with Persona 5 The Phantom X 😭😭😭😭😭

3

u/ReXiriam 3d ago

I admit I haven't done the P5X story enough to get to the P3 collab, but... Is it that bad?

3

u/EligibleUsername 2d ago

Short answer, not really.
Long answer, the plot is just kinda bland, certainly a far cry from what you'd expect from the current P5X story quality, the best thing about it is probably the hangout scene for each S.E.E.S member, it expands their personality a bit more beyond what P3R did.
Also, if you want the collab story to feel more natural, play the main story up until Riko joins your team, as she is the one who invites the protag to Port Island.

2

u/JamesSH1328 Persona 5: The Phantom X 2d ago

It is just them hanging out and going "wow our teams are so similar"

As for the gameplay side, it is the mandatory Roguelike gamemode that no one touches once you claim all the rewards

0

u/Ok-Tear-1454 3d ago

you dont need to do p5x to do previous collab events though collab stories aint exactly the main priority so the story is rather bland but if you mean p5x story after palace 2 it picks up afterwards because of the main persona writers which makes it peak though gacha gameplay still in there though which bothers some people coming from persona games

8

u/MisterCan2 SSR 3d ago

It's unfortunate that Nikke is locked into women characters for their roster, some of the guys have cool stories/designs that won't get showcased. 😞

1

u/A12qwas World's biggest Heaven Burns Red glazer 2d ago

they could do what HBR did and give some of the female characters from the gacha the guy's fit

36

u/Ok_Complaint7007 3d ago

Ok I dont play Arknights and Im a huge Persona 3 fan, do I need to play Arknights up to a certain point in game just to play this collab or is it available from the get-go?

This might be my excuse to try Arknights itself and drop HSR for good

51

u/XidJav 3d ago

There's usually a minimum stage requirement before you get to do all of tge content (though it's basically tutorials so it hobestly doesn't matter), but if you start now you'll have more than enough time to easily clear the event in ~6 months

13

u/Ok_Complaint7007 3d ago

Nice, thanks for answering. Last question tho as Im planning to lurk in Arknights subreddit, how welcoming are the players?

49

u/Ecovick 3d ago

I don't think Arknight is gatekeeping at all so new player should be very welcomed. Also because of recent pc launch there are many arknight cc expect more new player soon so they made some new player guide not long ago if you need.

35

u/Charibdysss 3d ago

One of the better ones within the gacha game space. The only issue i ever really encounter is elitism ( though only brought up when the topic involved comparison), tbh still better than the numerous mindless dramas in other fandoms. They're chill most of the time.

16

u/RazRaptre 3d ago

It's fairly welcoming and there's also very little tribalism relative to other gachas.

Side note, you've probably already figured it out but this P3 collab is on the CN server which is roughly 6 months ahead. We can expect to see this hit global around Feb 27, so if you start now you have plenty of time to save. The main story + archived side stories will easily give you over 300 pulls and you only need 90 to hit hard pity for this collab (technically 120, but there's 30 free pulls in the event).

Welcome to AK, and I hope you enjoy the story!

4

u/Ok_Complaint7007 3d ago

Thank you, do you have any news if it will be available in Steam? Endfield is available but not the OG it seems

16

u/RazRaptre 3d ago

It's because the global/JP/KR servers for Arknights are published by Yostar, unlike Endfield which is directly published by the devs Hypergryph. So far it doesn’t seem like Yostar are interested in a Steam release.

7

u/Notsocoolbruh Arknights, Limbus Company, & AK:Endfield 3d ago

I mean... You can always add a non steam game on steam, that's how i did it with the Arknights PC client

u/Ok_Complaint7007 3d ago

Yeah its what Im doing now. Idk I just want to see my gametime

u/mardan_fu_mardan 3d ago

25

u/Catveria77 Arknights 3d ago

Arknights fandom is one of the most chill fandom ever

Gameplay is extremely doable with low rarity. Dupes meaningless. No pvp. So, people are very unlikely to be elitist over meta unit and just play with whatever unit they like, even the "bad" ones.

1

u/kuuhaku_cr No story no game 3d ago

Can't say dupes are meaningless, which is a huge blanket word. They are just 'irrelevant' for most players for most content. I would need dupes for some key operators to clear max risks.

7

u/lenolalatte E7/AK 3d ago

When I was new I asked so many questions in the subreddit and got good answers. Only thing is to make sure you make posts in the right megathreads or else mods nuke your ass. But it helps to keep the sub organized and unlike other megathreads on gacha subreddits, you’ll usually get an answer

4

u/reprehensible523 3d ago

You should be just fine. There's a dedicated help thread and the lounge is very chill.

12

u/DiXanthosu 3d ago

Well, I'm welcoming new players every other week in it. :P

Speaking of... welcome to Arknights! :P

Here's a list of tips I share with new & returning players:

It includes guides, tools, channel recommedations, Arkpedia, etc. Plus info on the concerts, songs & animations.

And the Arknights anime (yes, there is an anime; it has 3 seasons).

u/Ok_Complaint7007 3d ago

I really appreciate the warm welcome. Will be seeing you guys in the subreddit

16

u/avelineaurora AK|AL|BA|CZN|EF|EX|HBR|HSR|LC|N|NTE|PtN|R99|SS|TC|WW|ZZZ 3d ago

In my experience Arknights is one of the least problematic fandoms and very open to helping people. Also heavily recommend watching eckogen or KyostinV's clears on youtube if you ever have any real stage clearing issues. You'll soon be hearing "activate Melantha skeel" in your sleep, lol.

9

u/lenolalatte E7/AK 3d ago

I’ve fully switched to oyuki for afk clears myself since I’ve collected all the units he uses now. AKA pram2 the god

7

u/Angel_Omachi Touken Ranbu 3d ago

Oyuki will find a way to clear anything with Ulpianus, Gladiia and Pramanix Alter.

4

u/lenolalatte E7/AK 3d ago

it's crazy how broken they are together lmao

u/Angel_Omachi Touken Ranbu 3d ago

You know some dev secretly regretted having the Abyssal Hunters health regen being set that high.

u/avelineaurora AK|AL|BA|CZN|EF|EX|HBR|HSR|LC|N|NTE|PtN|R99|SS|TC|WW|ZZZ 3d ago

I'll have to check them out!

15

u/XidJav 3d ago

8/10 they're chill but you'll find annoying elitist glazers on occasion, Reddit is helpful for the most part the megathreads would generally point you to the right direction.

If you're just starting watch Supah's beginer guide it has all you need to know

8

u/nuraHx 3d ago

It’s the best of all the gacha communities in my personal opinion

1

u/Guitar_86 Reverse: 1999, Wuwa, Arknights 1d ago

Best sub along with Reverse: 1999 IMO

15

u/pscripter 3d ago

do I need to play Arknights up to a certain point in game just to play this collab or is it available from the get-go?

For accessing collab, you probably will need to reach stage 1-10 but this can be done in an hour. Even less if you skip story. So pretty much nothing.

For beating collab story, your squad should be around Elite 1 Lv. 50 so it will take some time but you can borrow unit from friends which can help a lot with beating enemies or boss. You just won't be able to auto-grind those stages

2

u/FoRiZon3 Arknights 3d ago edited 1d ago

Afaik to unlock all events and proceding chapters you need to complete the Episode 3.

9

u/pscripter 3d ago

Side stories are getting opened on 1-10 which includes collabs.

To open "everything", yes, you need to finish Ch. 3 but this is irrelevant if you are only interested in collab. And you don't open all at once by reaching 3-8. You open most of the things by getting to this point

19

u/Lutalica_Harmonica 3d ago

I swear, there's just so much to glaze about AK because it just has so much integrity as a game, and hypergryph too. Its game design is top notch, the extra game modes like the is roguelites are the best in the gacha space, they actually feel like standalone games. The game does have powercreep, but it's only to the extent of character kits and not hp inflation and whatnot. There is mostly no required synergies except for one edge case, so you can just pull who you like. There's no yaoguangs, hyacines, dahlias, etc.

Meanwhile, the current HSR patch is so ABHORRENT. "Lore-justified" hp inflation, new debuff modifiers that basically says "you can only play this team archetype or else you do no damage" despite the actual enemy line up and mechanics being suited for many teams. I'm so tired on how they handled Remembrance, Elation, and soon the Finality path. On top of that, current patch only has TWO EVENTS with a short main story + side quest. Powercreep and hp inflation has been so insane ever since Amphoreus and it's mindboggling how it's still speeding up.

3

u/Ok_Complaint7007 3d ago

Ikr. Based on the answers I gathered so far OG Arknights is so generous and the gamemode are designed around 4 star units which is a plus so I wont feel pressured pulling for the unit just to clear the game

I still adore my E6S5 Herta (f2p btw) but the way Mihoyo is handling the game right now even she is not enough to tether me to the game, Ill just watch it in youtube

22

u/Jellionani 3d ago

Arknights is kind but not generous, and is why Endfield gacha is as suffering as it is. The game doesn't exactly shower you with pulls, and that stings a lot with collabs, and 3 seasonal limited banner.

For one thing, a banner for one 6-star only releases once for their debut, and shoved into standard pool afterwards(good luck pulling), if your unlucky, it's 120+however many more pulls. For limited banner its 300 pulls to spark current banner+past banner(older ones with discounts). Oh, and there are no guarantee for 5-stars outside of limited banners.

In exchange, however, is the Recruitment System, allowing many older units to be pulled as a lucky catch. Some are okay, a lot will still carry games, just not "braindead" levels as recent ones. This system is free, and readily available to players.

is the Yellow Certificate shop, which will eventually showcase recent~ish ops, both 5 and 6-stars. "Recent" means 2~ish years. The currency for that can be gained mostly through pulling for ops, but there is a free low-income through the Recruitment system.

The game works because of the gameplay, and the gacha works because the gameplay does not severely punish players for playing their own operators. Arknights has all their core synergizing with each other.

6

u/Ok_Complaint7007 3d ago

So the highest rarity is only guaranteed on their debut banner huh? Guess we really cant have it all but its ok, as long the content can be cleared by lower rarity and the gameplay is not ultra shilled then thats all I need

8

u/Phaaze13 GI/HSR/HI3/AK 3d ago

some of these debut banners get reruns, while others do not. the limited banners being a notable example of ones that don't. but any side story banner does get a rerun a year later. and worst case scenario all non limited operators are made available in the gold certificate store after about two years. so there are still ways to get older operators reliably.

4

u/Jellionani 3d ago

Specifically, limited one week events called Vignettes, with operator debuts, never rerun. The player has to wait with a rate-up banner where they share with another 6-star.

2

u/Yomnuro 3d ago

collabs are always available after the tutorial(and story) in fact all banners are so you wont ever miss out on characters and the only characters who require you to progress are the ones who are associated with the chapter but if not you could technically play every event without going post episode 1 lol

Im still playing HSR as well and I love Aventurine waveflair but man is my motivation dead otherwise

Arknights has been my goat for almost 6 years I would never drop it even if the world ended, the devs do care and lowlight(ceo) has his own public bilibili account where you can learn about his thoughts and process on whatever is going on the game right now.

3

u/Xerzahar 3d ago edited 3d ago

Yes drop HSR asap, in terms of gameplay and aesthetic variety AK is vastly superior compared to whatever HSR is. Not an /s or /j. Unless hoyo is your preferred flavor or something or you want a braindead turnbased gameplay.

Edit: I meant drop it for a while getting started with AK bc it wouldn't be a breeze towards midgame atleast, you'll have to watch lots of vids, opened tabs for lots of wiki pages or old reviews of operators, or even a dedicated tab for recruitment tags website. You will have less time for HSR which is a mostly an afk game or minigame chore anyway.

And the community is more mature and aged up but can be frustrating at times with doctor glaze and goonish fanarts in their sub, and also the ones that offer advice to round up all your lower star ops as priority and not touch your 6 star as a newbie, please don't listen to those old relics. Otherwise, much more tolerable fandom than what I have mostly seen from hsr subs which you can tell right away full of younger (and some manchild) people which contributes mostly nonsense topics and bad memes or endless doomplains in their sub. Discord even worse.

-2

u/Ok_Complaint7007 3d ago

Oh yeah I had my fair share of how atrocious HSR not just the game but the community can be and no, Im just playing GI just to see the ending; I hate Mihoyo as a company

I posted earlier in r/Arknights and they are really wholesome

-6

u/Xerzahar 3d ago

Be careful some might see you as an implant or a detractor lmao.

I, for sure, know that all the frank things I've said above will get me lots of downvotes AND I DON'T REALLY CARE LOL. Badmouthing hoyo when they have eyes everywhere can be a risky but an honest endeavor tbh. Kudos to you lol

AK is not an easy game, not even newb friendly unless you rerolled for a "broken operator plus borrowing a friend's broken operator" combo, newbies are heavily punished for not trying to learn the fundamentals of the game. Very far cry from all the bruteforce one can do to reach anomaly arbitration phase in hsr, and not to mention the farming for mats is generally harder too than what you've experienced in HSR, but NO RELICS or relic rng atleast.

Adapt to the new pace AK will be demanding from you if you somehow clicked and learned to like the nature of a tower defense roguelite game, and it will be very rewarding once you have a lategame account later that you can just chill around with.

u/CrazyLitFamlit 3d ago

Was just wondering where to get started when this collab comes out.

2

u/DiXanthosu 1d ago

I do recommend starting a bit earlier to:

a) accumulate pulls and guarantee the units in the collab,

b) accumulate OP and get all the skins,

c) level up a team strong enough to breeze through the event & watch all its story without issue,

d) refamiliarize with the games' tricks to not struggle while the clock is ticking (collab events only last two weeks).

Good luck! :D

2

u/CrazyLitFamlit 1d ago

Any celebrations coming up that'll be a good starting point?

u/DiXanthosu 18h ago

The limited event & banner in October could be a good choice if you prefer to wait.

You will also get 30 pulls for free (guaranteed at 120) if you got makoto beofre 120 the count will reset and remain.

u/DiXanthosu 3d ago

For Persona players who are curious about it...

-- Copy from the Persona subreddit--

For anyone wondering what's Arknights.

Well, it's a tower defense game. But you use unique characters with abilities instead of towers. And there are ground units, assassins, crazy map mechanics (like cannons that bombard you), giant bosses, and so on.

It's pretty big deal in Asia and has been active for almost 7.5 years already. And it spawned a 3D sequel that is a mix of Factorio + Xenoblade called Arknights: Endfield (epic trailer) set 152+ years later, in the same universe but in a new planet (people got there through a Stargate).

As you can probably already intuit, it has a lot of lore, world-building & massive story (3 times longer than the Bible & counting).

And you can watch an anime adaptation of the 1st Arc!

-- ANIME --

  • Season 1 is Arknights: Prelude to Dawn. Here is its (Opening) by Reona and its (Ending) by Duol.
  • Season 2 is Arknights: Perish in Frost. Here is its (Opening) by Myth & Roid and its (Ending) by Reona (first version).
  • Season 3 is Arknights: Rise from Embers. Here is its (Opening) by Reona and its (Ending) by Hana Itoki.

Synopsys: Takes place in a world where people have (for spoiler reasons) characteristics of animals, mythological beings, angels and demons. And they are immersed in a lot of problems: some mundane (war, slavery, economic downturns, debt), some not (hyper-evolving sea monsters,reality-distorting "demons" from the North, feuds among dragon god siblings, sky being false, etc).

Anime covers part of main story, where a "mineral" is causing a deadly, incurable disease. Those affected by it are heavily discriminated, or even exterminated. Thus, some people try to do something to alleviate, revert that inequality, or find a way to solve the issue. But their cruel world can put them in opposing camps.

There is, however, a light at the end of this dark tunnel. But everyone is going to suffer before getting there.

The series places BIG importance on the weight of emotions & ideals. And how they can save us, or destroy us.

Main protagonist is Amiya. She's the leader of Rhodes Island Pharmaceuticals, [Arknights: Babel] adoptive daughter of the Doctor & Theresa and [Arknights: Main story] heir to the latter's Black Crown, making her the Lord of Fiends.

Your POV character is The Doctor, though. A holder of many mysteries that are slowly revealed. They act as battlefield commander & researcher, and parent figure of Amiya.

[Note: I recommend watching this alternative ending song when completing season 2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3SUL8kiFpzM

And this one when completing season 3: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ouLhZptNMWg 

Also, "(Hellish) Grown-up’s Paradise" by Mili, as I think it captures the atmosphere of the whole story, not only the anime. https://youtu.be/sZ1OD0cL6Qw ("As cruelty becomes heroic...")].

-- GAME --

If you would like to try the game and/or prepare for the Persona 3 collab, here's a list of tips I share with new & returning players.

https://www.reddit.com/r/arknights/comments/1vrxrp0/list_of_tips_for_new_returning_players_of/

It contains game advice, guides & other tools.

As well as info on concerts, animations & songs. And things like the free canon comics, wiki, lore videos, etc.

P.D. It seems the collab happens in Year 1102 of the Arknights calendar, 4-5 years after the anime.

It's also set in Laterano, a country mainly inhabited by the Sankta, a race of angel-like people who love guns, sweets and crazy parties. Though there also a good number of Liberi (bird people).

You'll only need to save 90 since they're giving out 30 as free pulls. Good luck!

IT IS SO BEAUTIFUL, SO NOSTALGIC. Makes me want to install arknight, even though somehow I could never withstand this game UI (fonts are too small for me it makes me dizzy).

u/Umu9002 3d ago

Have you tried the PC client? Maybe with that the UI would be better for you

1

u/DiXanthosu 1d ago

They recently updated the reading mode for cut scenes; you can adjust a bit the font size.

That said, fonts elsewhere (UI in Operators section, etc) remains the same. But it does look bigger in the new PC client as Umu9002 said.

P.D. IF you ever decide to go for it, or are vaguely interested in trying out the comics, anime (yes, there is an Arknights anime), concerts & other stuff even without touching the game, here's a list of tips & links to what I mentioned.

Regardless, good luck! :D

Funny enough I just returned to Arknights yesterday without even remembering there was gonna be a Persona 3R collab (Currently playing P3R as well). Good timing ig but the upcoming limited banners is gonna be brutal... Time to open the wallet I guess...

u/Hielfield 3d ago

Time to work overtime producing orundums

u/Hot_Valuable1027 3d ago

Why is persona doing a collab with every gacha company 😭😭

4

u/Hielfield 2d ago

At least, P3R fits with Arknights' aesthetic and setting (Makoto's VA also voices operator Phantom and Tragodia in Arknights)

u/caheo12355 3d ago edited 3d ago

Hypergryph know balls for sure. arknight is definitely some of the best gacha game out there with the aesthetic that fit a persona collab, let hope the event story is peak as well.

25

u/JuSan_13 3d ago

Just a friendly correction.
Hypergryph are the real devs behind Arknights. Yostar is just the publisher in Global.

u/caheo12355 3d ago

oops mb I will fix it real quick

u/Ex_Wanderer 3d ago

Is Hypergryph not Yostad bruh

3

u/DarkHomieC 3d ago

Hypergryph is the dev studio, while Yostar is just the global publisher for the game

Hypergryph actually chooses their own collabs and has full control over it

You're definitely drunk buddy. They did Collab with P3, P5 mostly just for OST and Bike skin which no one wanted.

u/Paradox3759 AL, BA, NIKKE, BD2, HSR, ZZZ, WUWA, PGR, GFL2 3d ago

Oh and you do? If you do, I'm sure you know that WuWa HAS done a Collab with Persona 3, Persona 5, Resident Evil, Pragmata, Haikyuu, Sonic etc. which were just bike skins and OST.

So get your facts checked or don't speak at all.

u/Touhou_Fever ULTRA RARE 1d ago

Coming off back of the hugely underwhelming Nikke collab, this looks slick af honestly

u/mikantsuki 3d ago

Class: Specialist Yeah he gonna be broken for sure

2

u/ReXiriam 3d ago

The last collab specialist has an ability that lets her keep being alive after defeat and can be used multiple times during the fight. And that was just a 5 star. I can't imagine how broken Mr. Door will be.

u/ArcturusSatellaPolar 3d ago

The last collab specialist has an ability that lets her keep being alive after defeat and can be used multiple times during the fight. And that was just a 5 star.

You mean Mutsumi? "Not dying" is just what Dollkeepers do. Like, it's the whole point of the class, she ain't special in that regard.

Unless you mean the "can't die during Fever". Which isn't Mutsumi's, it's part of Sakiko's S3. And they do die once Fever is over.

2

u/ReXiriam 3d ago

I... Haven't been back for a while and I haven't rolled other better unit since Ave. I'm still mentally working on terms of types, I don't know about subtypes that much.

4

u/EligibleUsername 2d ago

FYI, Makoto is also a Dollkeeper, thematically correct with his abilities tying to death and rebirth. That subtype is quite fun to play around with, you can drop them on relatively dangerous choke points with minimal sustain and they'll hold it for you.

3

u/GreatMourner Arknights 3d ago

The hell, not even a single sign of Mitsuru

23

u/Hielfield 3d ago

2nd collab I'm guessing, where Mitsuru, Akihiko, and Junpei go searching for them and end up in Terra as well

6

u/JuSan_13 3d ago

My gut feeling is it's very unlikely. If HG will do another Persona collab, it would be of 4 or 5 instead of a repeat of 3.

6

u/Hielfield 3d ago

we'll just have to see what Lowlight will cook for another Persona collab. If it ends up as 2nd P3 collab, I imagine it happens in Iberia (Spain equivalent), specifically Inquisition HQ (since the inquisitors use rapier and deagle)

1

u/EnvironmentalFan8837 3d ago

Probably not since Aigis was the only other character they could’ve made a 6star and she’s here so…

7

u/Qwertyofthenorth 3d ago

there is elizabeth, with her quest of freeing the mc soul from the seal and been going around places she is the best contender for a 6star if they ever do a followup

6

u/Xerzahar 3d ago

Lol why would Aegis be a 6 star unless waifu bias, there is no "could", Makoto is the only rightfully 6 star here.

7

u/RazRaptre 3d ago

Makoto for sure has a more compelling case for 6, but if they absolutely had to make another 6 it's have to be Aigis since she was the star of her own DLC.

But since she's already here as a 5* it's unlikely they'll have a P3 Part 2.

1

u/HibikiAss Forever Utamacross fan 3d ago

would be very funny if second collab has Kotone as 6*

1

u/Waddlewop 3d ago

That would require Atlus to acknowledge that she exists after P3P. Which isn’t gonna happen

1

u/Fapling1 2d ago

She exist in p5x so its a non 0 chance

1

u/Fapling1 2d ago

Some persona q2 shenanigans would be nice

2

u/GraveXNull 3d ago

I swear all these Persona collabs could finally finance that Persona 6...

u/Hielfield 2d ago

or wait for P1 and P2 remake collab

u/sakuraaa_x 2d ago

What's the title of the song??

u/Zaytherius 2d ago

Both are Persona 3 songs. They're "It's Going Down Now" in beginning and "Color Your Night" at end.

u/sakuraaa_x 2d ago

Thank you so much!!

Thank god it isn't Persona 5. Been getting tired of seeing Joker everywhere.

u/Hielfield 2d ago edited 2d ago

Aesthetic and setting wise, P3 fits. Also, Makoto's VA voices operator Phantom and Tragodia in Arknights FYI

EOS is c*ming

u/Xerzahar 3d ago

Thank god the choice for 6 star wasn't a shitshow like what happened to DnD collab with mc Laios being a trash meme unit, and the operator that actually aged the best was 5 star Chuck instead of super mid Marceille.

Makoto is fine, as long as he can vastly outperform that recent not-Chiave dude whose name I can't already remember, in terms of def shred or armor pen which is canon with his abilities in his native game. Yukari should have more supportive role, I hope the pv is just showing her damage skills but it would be real shame if she can't heal or gigabuff. Aegis is whatever, idc about her.
