You'll never see it coming! - "it" referring to Domino's Pizza's tweet featuring a Persona 5-inspired advertisement. Is this for real? (It is!)
Domino's Pizza Malaysia tweeted out the advertisement on their official Twitter account (@DominosMY) earlier today, along with a caption promoting their pizza and encouraging their customers to stay at home.
Oh, and there were some pretty cool references to being a "video game-playing phantom thief" mixed in there as well.
The advertisement featured an image of a tasty looking pizza, surrounded by the battle mechanics of Persona 5. However, rather than the usual battle menu options (such as PERSONA, ITEM, GUARD, and ATTACK), Domino's opted for something a little more food-related, replacing the options with ORDER NOW, CRUST TYPE, EAT, INGREDIENTS, WEAPON (CHILLI FLAKES), and the ever-important CHEESE SMASH. Taking down rotten adults should be easy with that last one.
The ad also paid homage to one of Morgana's most iconic lines in the game, his famous battle catchphrase to the protagonist anytime he does something impressive: "Looking cool, Joker!"
It's too bad the Phantom Thieves never celebrated their victories with a pizza party...
Persona 5 was released back in 2016 in Japan (and 2017 in the West) for the PlayStation 3 and 4. The enhanced edition of the game, Persona 5 Royal is available now, exclusively for the PlayStation 4.
