Later, text strings were discovered in the game data that referred to upcoming DLC. Due to a technical oversight in a particular file format used for ''Ultimate''{{'}}s stage data, unrelated development text leaked into stage data files. The string "Jack_Menentoes_" was [https://twitter.com/DrHyperCake/status/1098341121170665473 discovered], confirming Joker's stage as [[Mementos]] from ''Persona 5''. | Later, text strings were discovered in the game data that referred to upcoming DLC.

Two specific filenames are mentioned: <code>Jack6_C06_v01_070925.mb</code>, which refers to a Maya project file for Joker's seventh alternate costume, the Shujin Academy uniform in the final game; and <code>Jane1_pony_hairSystemShape2.mchp</code>, which refers to a Maya file format related to hair<ref>{{cite web|url=https://twitter.com/DrHyperCake/status/1098748514912202752|title=Dr. HyperCake on Twitter|date=February 21, 2019|publisher=Twitter|accessdate=January 11, 2024|author=Dr. HyperCake}}</ref>, and seemingly pertains to a ponytail hairstyle. | ||

It is possible the name refers to [[Ann Takamaki]], who appears on the Mementos stage and has twin ponytails, as "Jane" may be a misspelling of "Anne" (Ann's name in Japanese).

No data for "Jane" exists in the final game, leaving its true meaning unknown. | |||
