Persona 5 Strikersis finally here and serves as a proper sequel toPersona 5, and yes, it’s all canon. One of the big differences that sets the sequel apart from its predecessor however is the change in the battle system. Instead of having a traditional turn-based system, like other JRPGs,Persona 5 Strikersplays more like an action RPG or a Musou game.
When the Phantom Thieves meet upwith each other to hang out and go on an exciting summer vacation, things take a turn for the worse and the group has to come together again to fight against evil and save people from getting brainwashed by one of the game’s early bosses, Alice Hiiragi. A short quest tasks Joker with finding some dirt on Alice, which involves investigating two different areas to gather rumors on her.

Now, go to the alley on thewest side of this area to find Ryujiin front of two men speaking to one another. Press the interact button to listen to their conversation and the gauge will rise to 54%.
Go back to the central area where Ann andHaru are hanging outat and there will be a ‘Passionate Young Man’ standing around. Players can listen to him grumble to raise the gauge to 77%. Haru will then send you a text giving you information on a clothing store. The store is in this same area, a little east of Ann’s location. Examine the shop entrance to increase the rumor gauge to 100% and the Alice Hiiragi investigation will finally be fully complete.
