Persona 5 Strikers Characters Come To Dragalia Lost In New Crossover Event

Nintendo took to YouTube to announce that its mobile action-RPG Dragalia Lost will get a brand-new crossover event featuring the characters from the upcoming Persona 5 Strikers.

The event is scheduled to go live later this month for Android and iOS devices, though Nintendo hasn't provided an exact start date for the raid. Dragalia Lost director Yuki Okada did share some details about the event in the announcement video, including confirmation that Persona 5 protagonist Joker and various other members of the Phantom Thieves will be playable in-game. While working with the Halidom, the Dragalia Lost and Persona 5 Strikers characters will team up to "solve a strange incident in a brand-new story," according to Okada.

Okada also confirmed that the event will feature animations and graphics reminiscent of Persona 5 Strikers. And as players complete quests, "another adventurer" will join their roster. More information will be posted inside Dragalia Lost and on the game's official website and social media channels. Okada said players should keep their eyes locked on these spaces.

Dragalia Lost is a mobile action-RPG developed by Granblue Fantasy creators Cygames and published by Nintendo. It's currently available on Android and iOS devices, and has hosted other crossover events with titles such as Fire Emblem, Mega Man, and Monster Hunter.

Persona 5 Strikers, co-developed by Omega Force and P-Studio and published by Atlus, is a sequel to Persona 5 and takes place six months after the game. The gameplay is a departure for the series, taking on a more action-oriented playstyle similar to the Dynasty Warriors series. Persona 5 Strikers launches on February 23 for Nintendo Switch, PC, and PlayStation 4.
