So far as Koei Tecmo releases go, most of us are fully focused on the upcoming Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity. However, there’s plenty out there waiting for a Western release of Persona 5 Scramble: The Phantom Strikers.

Whilst a financial report earlier in the year revealed that Koei Tecmo had the game slated for a western release in their current fiscal year, the game has yet to be officially confirmed for release outside of Japan.

Unfortunately, the company’s latest financial report now makes no mention of the game, with Dynasty Warriors 9; Empires and Atelier Ryza 2 among the games planned for release between now and March 2021 alongside Age of Calamity.

All hope is not completely lost though, as the game may have simply been pushed back, with the localized version now slated for Koei Tecmo’s next financial year. As noted by Siliconera, Sega have filed a trademark for ‘Persona 5 Strikers’, which could well be the game’s title outside of Japan.

Let us know if you’re hoping to see this come to the West down in the comments!
