SEGA revealed that Morgana, the cunning and courageous member of the Phantom Thieves in Persona 5, is coming to Super Monkey Ball Banana Mania as a playable character. Morgana will be available as a post-launch DLC character for $4.99 on all platforms on November 2.

First introduced to the US in 2017’s acclaimed JRPG, Persona 5, Morgana is a mysterious being that bears a striking resemblance to a feline (BUT DON’T CALL HIM A CAT!). Morgana’s courage, knowledge, and loyalty are irreplaceable to the Phantom Thieves as they seek to eradicate the seeds of corruption by changing the hearts of the villainous figures that stand in the way of justice.

Morgana joins the cadre of previously announced guest characters in Super Monkey Ball Banana Mania, including Beat from Jet Set Radio, beloved duo Sonic the Hedgehog and Miles “Tails” Prower, and Kazuma Kiryu from Yakuza. The notorious treasure-loving character will be playable in every Main Game mode, where the feisty feline will collect chests in lieu of bananas.

Each of the core six members in the monkey gang - AiAi, MeeMee, GonGon, Baby, Doctor, and YanYan – will be playable in fan-favorites like Monkey Target, Monkey Soccer, and Monkey Target.
