Persona 5 Royal Teases New Battle Theme Entitled ‘Take Over’

Persona 5 Royal has teased its new battle theme entitled ‘Take Over’ in a short Twitter video.

The clip, embedded below, shows roughly half a minute of gameplay, which includes some animation changes compared to the base game. Namely, a new aura effect appears when using a baton pass.

However, ‘Last Surprise’, the original theme, will play during a normal battle; ‘Take Over’ will only play during a pre-emptive attack. Check out the clip below:

【 #P5R 10/31発売！】なんでも箱に寄せられたメッセージ、「P5Rの新しい戦闘曲の導入部分をチラ見せして頂きたい！頼む！心の怪盗団！ by蘭丸」にお応えして、先制エンカウント時の新曲「Take Over」が流れるバトル冒頭をお届けするぜ！ちなみに、通常エンカウントで「Last Surprise」が流れるぜ。 pic.twitter.com/tlIdulUDeY

A rough Google translation of the tweet’s description reads:

“In response to the message sent to the box, [we] show the introduction part of the new battle song of P5R! Please ask! We will deliver the beginning of the battle in which Over flows! By the way, ‘Last Surprise’ flows in the normal encounter.”

Persona 5 Royal comes to PlayStation 4 in the West next year. Re-visit the game’s E3 trailer here.
