Persona 5 is a positively massive tournament, with an average playthrough clocking in at roughly 80 hours- and that’s without diving into abundant helpings of area content. Atlus’ colossal JRPG is a stylish behemoth, describing players in with its ambitious story and charisma cast of characters. But for the line loyal, will an enhanced re-release be enough to tempt them for another ride?
Royal is an enhanced version of the modern classic, drawing with it plentiful sums of new material, refined mechanics and a built-in audience of fans ready and waiting to devour everything it has to offer. This isn’t the first time this franchise has induced such a move, following in the strides of Persona 3 FES and Persona 4 Golden, both being the exhaustive path to play each one.
After spending a few hours with Persona 5 Royal, it has all the ingredients to build upon its progenitor in some excellent modes. Many improvements are minimal, but they combine to flesh a cohesive whole so solid that even The Phantom Thieves would have trouble cracking it. I miss not expending enough time with the original, so now is the perfect opportunity to correct a glaring sin in my gaming portfolio.
