10 p.m. EDT on Wed., July 9 (East Coast North America)
11 p.m. BRT on Wed., July 9 (Brazil)

What Time Does Version 1.1 Launch?

The servers will come back online with the version 1.1 update at these times:

2 a.m. PDT (West Coast North America)
5 a.m. EDT (East Coast North America)
6 a.m. BRT (Brazil)
10 a.m. BST (UK)
11 a.m. CEST (Western Europe/Paris)

Keep in mind that the maintenance might finish earlier or later than expected, but these times are your best estimate for when you can jump back in.

What’s New in Persona 5: The Phantom X Version 1.1?

While official patch notes haven’t been released yet, the official Persona 5: The Phantom X Twitter account has teased the addition of two new Phantom Idols:

Minami Miyashita (Marian) – a Medic with the Bless attribute who can dispel debuffs from party members.
Yui (Bui) – an Assassin with the Electric attribute, focused on follow-up damage.

These characters were released in separate patches on previously launched servers, so the global version 1.1 might combine updates from versions 1.1 and 1.2 of the older servers. Past updates also included new events, game modes, side quests, and enhancements to City Life actions and Velvet Trials.

Additionally, expect the story to continue in Miyazawa’s Palace, so it’s a good idea to catch up before the update hits.

Stay tuned for official patch notes and further announcements as the update rollout approaches.
