Persona 5: The Phantom X has reached another major download milestone, and players are receiving 10 free pulls to celebrate. Although Persona 5: The Phantom X just launched in the West, the gacha RPG has become an instant success across all available platforms.
As a spin-off of the Persona 5 series, Persona 5: The Phantom X is a new story set in a parallel universe. The game was initially launched exclusively in Asian countries in 2024, but it made its Western debut on June 25, 2025. Since the popularity of Persona 5 Royal precedes it, over a million users pre-registered for the gacha title. Mere hours after release, Persona 5: The Phantom X also became a hit on Steam and surpassed P5R's peak player count. Now, the game has shared another important achievement, and the developers are thanking players with some juicy rewards.

Persona 5: The Phantom X players can progress at a great pace with the right tips and tricks.
Through an official Twitter post, the developers revealed that Persona 5: The Phantom X has surpassed 1.5 million downloads in the West. To commemorate the milestone, all players will receive 1,500 Meta Jewels through their in-game mail. This equates to 10 free pulls in any of Persona 5: The Phantom X's character banners. To claim the rewards, fans simply need to log into the game before Saturday, July 12, at 4:59 AM (UTC). It is worth noting that only users who have started the game by July 11 will be eligible for the free items. The Persona 5: The Phantom X account added that it had reached the #1 spot in the free download rankings on both the App Store and Steam.
Persona 5: The Phantom X Is Giving Away 10 Free Pulls
Aside from the free Meta Jewels, Persona 5: The Phantom X offers multiple pre-registration rewards for players who have played on day one. These include 20 free pulls on the Standard and Beginner banner, with the latter letting players pull a 5-Star Phantom Thief of their choice between Morgana, Ann, and Ryuji. Other benefits involve free pulls for the Weapon banner, a free 4-Star weapon, and various items. On the other hand, Persona 5: The Phantom X's limited banner currently features the fan-favorite Joker, who is introduced as a 5-Star Curse Sweeper unit.
Persona 5: The Phantom X has already revealed its big plans for the future, as the developers have several updates scheduled every few weeks. Persona 5: The Phantom X Version 1.1 will launch in July 2025 and will add Chapter 2 of the main story in full. Later patches will feature special events and more character debuts. The dev team has confirmed that Version 2.0 will launch Chapter 3 and add Kichijoji as a new location.
