Jujutsu Kaisen: Phantom Parade Installation Guide
Hello sorcerers! After understanding that people show interest for playing Phantom Parade, but are unaware of how it works, plays, etc., I decided to start writing up some guides to help people understand how to get and play the game! First off, we're gonna be covering how to install and play the game itself, as you can't really enjoy a game without being able to play it!
Installing and Starting the Game
The game is currently available on Androids, iOS and PC, but it is region locked to Japan. Therefore, if you want to install and play it, you'll need to find a way to access it. Here I'll list the easiest way on each platform:
- Android
For Android, there are a few ways you could go about it, but the easiest solution would be QooApp. This is an app you can easily find online with a Google search (or by just clicking the link), and it'll give you access to APKs of just about any region locked game you may want. So, simply go onto the app, search for Phantom Parade, and install it!
(P.S.: Careful not to confuse it with Phantom Siege, a different, unlicensed, game.)
However, once you install it, you'll quickly notice that you can't actually play the game. This leads us to our next step, which is using a VPN. Since the game is currently only out in Japan, you can't play the game from any other region. So, you'll need to use a VPN that'll set your location to Japan. Furthermore, from our testing, many of them won't work, but here are some that we know of that do:
- OpenVPN (you'll need to find a good OpenVPN config file on VPNGate, may take a few different ones to make it work);
- OVPNSpider (this one will automatically show you servers to connect to, but not all will work, and some may be unstable, so keep trying until you find one that does);
- TunnelBear VPN (won't work for playing the game, but allows you to download data).
Do keep in mind that, any time you want to play the game, you will have to keep your VPN online!
- iOS
For iOS, you can use the App Store to download the game, but you will need a Japanese Apple ID. For this, follow these steps:
- Create a new Apple ID here;
- Set your region to Japan and fill in an extra e-mail address you may have (if not, just create a new one on Gmail), and your phone number, which you can use your normal one as it's not exclusive to one ID;
Once you've created your new Apple ID, use it to sign into the App Store. You can then search for Jujutsu Kaisen: Phantom Parade, and the game should be available to download.
As for playing the game, you will also need a VPN. For iOS, the best option should be OpenVPN. Install it, grab a server from VPNGate (it may take a few different ones before it works), and then enjoy the game!
- PC
For PC, we're going to be assuming you're using the official PC client. If you wish to play using an emulator, just follow the process above that matches the OS that the emulator uses.
To start with, you'll need a VPN right away. Once again, OpenVPN is the most recommended, which you can get for PC here. Once you've got it, find a good server from VPNGate.
Once you have your VPN active, go to this link. You'll want to press the yellow button on your screen, and then the yellow button again, as shown in the images below.
This will take you to install the DMM Game Player. This is the service through which the game functions on PC. Create a DMM account, or log in with your Google account, which should work as long as your VPN is active. Once the player has downloaded, open it and log in with your account, or Google. You can now find and install Phantom Parade on the player itself. If you have trouble finding it, return to the website above and follow the same steps, but press the blue button instead of the one to download the Player.
Once the game is installed, you should be able to play it! Keep in mind that you'll still need your VPN on, and enjoy Phantom Parade!
