Smartphone idle-RPG game AFK Arena, from the team at Lilith Games, have managed to implement many collaborative characters. These crossover characters range from video game characters such as Ezio from Assassin’s Creed, to Youtubers such as Markiplier. Being rolled out as part of the game’s New Year update on 30 December, two characters from ATLUS’ highly successful JRPG Persona 5 will be making their mark on the world of Esperia.
Joker and Queen will be jumping straight from Tokyo’s streets and into the world of Esperia where they are going to steal players’ hearts. The two Heroes will be free to try as part of the forthcoming New Year update on December 30th, when players can experiment with them before deciding if they want to add Joker and Queen to their squad from the in-game store where they will be on sale until February 27th.
According to Lilith Games:
Both characters bring a unique set of skills to the battlefield. JOKER can summon the persona ARSENE to his side to unleash powerful attacks, such as the devastating Maeigaon that deals an instant crushing blow to foes. QUEEN can also call upon her persona JOHANNA, a powerful motorcycle that unleashes her devastating Stationary Drifter Ultimate attack, this creates a Nuclear Tornado that rains down multiple strikes on opponents. For fans of the Phantom Thieves, the New Year update also features an exclusive themed PVE dungeon. Players must pick a Hero and dive into the maze of their heart to obtain the truths locked within. Exploring the Metaverse and battling enemies earns players XP and incredible rewards using JOKER and QUEEN to traverse the maze safely.
AFK Arena, if you have somehow managed to avoid its major advertising campaigns on Youtube, is now available to download on the Google Play store for Android and App Store for iOS devices. The game is available for free download, financially supported by microtransactions.
