Atlus said in a press release that Persona 5 Tactica is a tactical twist on the series’ classic weakness attribute system, with each character having unique skills and abilities, as well as social connections to explore. clarified how to provide
Just like in Persona 5, characters can defend themselves. If the character is in cover at the end of the turn, the character takes reduced damage or avoids harm altogether. However, if the enemy is out of cover at the end of the turn, they can get “One More” and deal an extra round of damage.
Elemental attacks also inflict disease on enemies. For example, a flame attack like Agi deals extra damage at the end of an affected enemy’s turn, while an electric attack like Zio prevents the affected enemy from moving. Attacking a hidden enemy with a skill triggers a one-more attack, giving you a chance to attack again. You can combine this method with other abilities to chain attacks for continuous damage.
Taking or dealing damage increases the voltage gauge. When the gauge is full, the character will be able to unleash unique special abilities. Additionally, every character has a unique skill her tree that can be upgraded over time. You can earn growth points that can be used for skills by winning battles or interacting with party members at talk events. You can also reset your character’s skill tree to try out new builds and abilities.
Plot-wise, Tactica will involve the cast of Persona 5 in a new conflict. After the events of Persona 5, the Phantom Thieves are mysteriously transported to a new realm (no, not that realm) in the Metaverse. Surrounded by mysterious legionnaires, the Phantom Thieves battle faction leader Marie. They are defeated, and resistance leader Elina saves only two of the thieves, Joker and Morgana, from Marie’s brainwashing powers. They are then tasked with freeing the Phantom Thieves and uncovering the truth behind Marie’s evil plot.
