The night he arrives at his new [[Café Leblanc|home]] for the year, he starts having strange [[Velvet Room|dreams]] where he is a prisoner of fate that must be rehabilitated to stand against 'the distortion of the world' and prevent future Ruin. A phone app from the [[Igor|prison master]] grants him access to the Metaverse, a cognitive world that creates loci of strong distorted thoughts, such as that Shujin Academy's [[Suguru Kamoshida|PE teacher]] is a sadist and pervert who thinks he rules the school as king. With new schoolmate acquaintances [[Ryuji Sakamoto|Ryuji]] and [[Ann Takamaki|Ann]], Ren awakens to his [[persona|spirit of rebellion]], and resolves to fight for other victims of unjust adults who cannot be touched by the law. They are joined by [[Morgana]], a cat-shaped being who hopes to regain his memories and turn human again by investigating deeper into the Metaverse. Together, they become the [[Phantom Thieves of Hearts]]. | |||
The main story of {{Link|Game|P5}}, including the original game endings, can still be obtained in ''Persona 5 Royal''. However, the plot is expanded with new characters and new scenes, especially for [[Sumire Yoshizawa|Kasumi Yoshizawa]], [[Goro Akechi]], and [[Takuto Maruki]]. By deepening the [[Confidant|relationship]] with these characters during the original conquests of the Phantom Thieves, events after Christmas Day can change. | |||
The deepest desires of the citizens of Tokyo—including most of the members of the Phantom Thieves—have come true, without an explanation of how or why. Ren appears to be the only one acknowledging that anything is different compared to before Christmas. With his teammates happy with their changed lives, Ren must investigate alone to find the cause of this mysteriously altered reality and a way to bring his friends to acknowledge the truth. | |||

Synopsis
- Main article: Persona 5 § Synopsis
After an incident where he allegedly assaulted a man, Ren Amamiya[a] is put on probation and forced to transfer to Shujin Academy in Tokyo. The night he arrives at his new home for the year, he starts having strange dreams where he is a prisoner of fate that must be rehabilitated to stand against 'the distortion of the world' and prevent future Ruin. A phone app from the prison master grants him access to the Metaverse, a cognitive world that creates loci of strong distorted thoughts, such as that Shujin Academy's PE teacher is a sadist and pervert who thinks he rules the school as king. With new schoolmate acquaintances Ryuji and Ann, Ren awakens to his spirit of rebellion, and resolves to fight for other victims of unjust adults who cannot be touched by the law. They are joined by Morgana, a cat-shaped being who hopes to regain his memories and turn human again by investigating deeper into the Metaverse. Together, they become the Phantom Thieves of Hearts.
The main story of Persona 5, including the original game endings, can still be obtained in Persona 5 Royal. However, the plot is expanded with new characters and new scenes, especially for Kasumi Yoshizawa, Goro Akechi, and Takuto Maruki. By deepening the relationship with these characters during the original conquests of the Phantom Thieves, events after Christmas Day can change.
The deepest desires of the citizens of Tokyo—including most of the members of the Phantom Thieves—have come true, without an explanation of how or why. Ren appears to be the only one acknowledging that anything is different compared to before Christmas. With his teammates happy with their changed lives, Ren must investigate alone to find the cause of this mysteriously altered reality and a way to bring his friends to acknowledge the truth.

Notes
- ↑ The 2022 re-release of Royal uses the name 'Ren Amamiya' as the default if language is changed during play.[1]
References
- ↑ "Because the language was changed, the Protagonist's name will be set to "Ren Amamiya" and the group name will be "The Phantoms." If you want to play with the name you entered, you will need to revert to the language used when the name was created." Persona 5 Royal (2022 re-release).
