Gematsu described the protagonist of 'Persona 5' as the 'Phantom character from today's Yomiuri Shimbun advertisement. Katsura Hashino from the Persona team mentioned that the 'previous heroes are going after villains, pursuing bad guys for the sake of justice however in Persona 5, protagonists are on the run for doing what they think is right after something happens completely pout of the blue. That mixture of thrills and not-so-larger-than-life cast of characters is what composes the idea of "academy juveniles" for us.'
Also, the trailer introduced 3 additional characters, the blonde guy 'Ryuuji Sakamoto', the girl 'Anzu Takamaki' and a cat named Morgan. Lastly, gameplay evolves with scenes from everyday life, menus, dungeons where stealth and jumping elements are present and battles where each characters display their own masks.
