Persona 5: The Phantom X, the free-to-play gacha JRPG spin-off from Atlus, launched globally on June 26, 2025, and its PC system requirements are notably accessible, making it runnable on a wide range of gaming setups. For minimum specs, you’ll need a 64-bit version of Windows 10 or 11, an Intel Core i3-7300 processor, 8GB of RAM, and an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 750Ti with 2GB of VRAM, alongside 70GB of storage space, preferably on an SSD for optimal performance. These specs ensure the game runs at 720p on low settings with occasional performance dips but no major issues, catering to budget or older PCs. The game supports both DirectX 11 and 12, offering flexibility for different hardware configurations. For mobile devices, Android requires version 13.0 or later, a Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 or equivalent (like Kirin 9000E 5G or Dimensity 9000), 8GB of RAM, and 30GB of storage, while iOS needs an iPad 9th generation or better. Preloading is available on Steam, Google Play, and iOS, but the hefty 70GB PC file size—potentially 72.8GB with language packs—has sparked some fan discussion on X about storage demands.
Recommended Specs and Tips for Optimal Performance
For a smoother experience at 1080p with high settings, the recommended specs include Windows 11 64-bit, an Intel Core i5-8500 processor, 16GB of RAM, and an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 with 6GB of VRAM, still requiring 70GB of storage. These specs target stable performance for the game’s vibrant 3D turn-based battles and detailed Tokyo environments, though exact framerates or resolutions aren’t specified by SEGA. Upgrading to 16GB of RAM is affordable and ensures consistent gameplay, especially for gacha enthusiasts pulling characters like Joker from the Newcomer Contracts banner. Fans on X note the game’s mobile origins keep hardware demands low, but the large file size, which includes multiple language depots, can be a hurdle. To optimize, install on an SSD, check your setup with tools like PCGameBenchmark, and ensure a stable network for cross-progression between PC and mobile.
