The 4.1 X-Stream special program for the Persona 5: The Phantom X update that includes the Persona 3 Reload event with protagonist Makoto Yuki aired, and it turns out there are some changes from his original appearance in the Chinese and Asian release. Basically, there are two major changes to his kit. We’ll see for ourselves now, as the five-star unit’s banner is available until June 25, 2026. So is a Tartarus-themed event, and his side story will also show up as a Dream Chapter after the patch.
There are two changes to the new Persona 5: The Phantom X character now that the Persona 3 Reload event is bringing Makoto to the game worldwide. The first update from the presentation noted that “S.E.E.S. character coordination” will be better in the global version of the game. This is reflected in his Talent. That ability is called On-Site Leader, and it increases the attack of other characters from the group. In the Chinese and Asian version of the game, that offered a 20% boost. For the global release, it is 30%.
The other adjustment affects his Scarlet Hades skill. When it first appeared, Moon Phase stacks could be spent for a 76.2% Fire damage boost and Full Moon stacks could be spent for a 134.6% increase. Both are increasing here. The Moon Phase stacks can be spent for a 91.5% buff, while Full Moon ones lead to a 150.7% assault.

Another major point here involves a new version of a Persona 3 Reload song available in the game. It’s a new take on the Atsushi Kitajoh song “It’s Going Down Now.” It, in addition to 16 other songs, will appear as part of this crossover.
Finally, the roadmap for May and June 2026 appeared for the game. Version 4.2 will launch at the end of the month and include a new event and the start of the Anniversary Special Daily Hoot-n-Loot with in-game currency. The first anniversary event will start in the second half of June 2026.
