Persona 5 Royal: Steelbook Launch Edition for PlayStation 4

Product Information

There’s one other story point that I feel can’t be ignored. Before the release of Royal, Atlus made a big deal online about the fact that the English localization team was planning to update a controversial scene from the original game. The localizers did change it, but their changes really didn’t go far enough, and the scene is still not great. A new persona info screen, which highlights the new innate trait feature in the top left. Each persona now has its own innate trait, which can be passed through fusion. Image: Atlus/Sega via Polygon You’ll have to replay a lot of content, but the new story beats, characters, and gameplay changes are worth the time. If you’ve never played Persona 5, and the idea of a lengthy JRPG about making friends, making evil adults admit their crimes, and fighting monsters sounds cool, this is the definitive way to experience the game. Started playing this right after release on ps4, but that was around the time I just no longer could stare at a tv playing a game, tv was always weird to me as I grew up without mostly, and Game Boy was way cooler being portable and I could find a comfortable spot and position, and play a game, and change spot and position whenever I wanted to. I could go to the toilet and take my game with me. So hopefully, when I can get it at a sale eventually, I can fully enjoy what it seems to have on offer this time. Played some SMT and Persona games already on 3ds and Vita (my favourites are the Etrian crossovers though) and the spin off on Switch TMS on Wii U, so I know I'll most likely enjoy it. And definitely not getting this version, the "need" to collect that I once had is dead. I still like some artbooks, steelbooks, figurines, statues, but unless it's something amazing or at a very decent price, I don't even WANT that stuff anymore.

In addition to all these flashy details, Royal polishes the base game. The most obvious distinction is that Atlus improved the graphics by pulling from 2018's P5 Dancing for character models. Visuals can now be displayed in 4K. There are three digital editions for Persona 5 Royal. The Persona 5 Royal standard edition includes Persona 5 Royal. The Persona 5 Royal Deluxe Edition includues the game and the Persona 5 Royal Kasumi Costume Bundle. The Persona 5 Royal Ultimate Edition includes the following:Phantom Thieves Art Prints - a Set of 5”x7” glossy prints of various Persona 5 Royal characters made to be displayed in the frame. All those upgrades will be necessary when you come face to face with the new foes: Disaster Shadows high-risk, high-reward baddies that can be found within Palaces. You can also fight previous Persona series protagonists. Little changes in Persona 5 Royal Gameplay is mostly split into two interconnected halves, your normal life and your life in the Metaverse, and much of the appeal of Persona 5 comes from how you balance the various activities across both halves. Most of this comes from the constant pressure you’re placed under, as the narrative mostly progresses via various ‘arcs’ where you have to steal the treasure from a character’s Palace by a looming deadline or it’s game over. Usually, you have about two in-game weeks to pull off the heist, and what you do with your time on the individual days that lead up to the deadline is entirely up to you. Finally, Vooks awarded the game a 9/10 and highlighted the gameplay and presentation, but stated that the game is "too damn long" (we respectfully disagree): The Japanese release of the Persona 5 Royal Battle Bundle DLC included challenge battles with the Persona 3 protagonist, Persona 4 protagonist, and a set of other challenge battles that are even more difficult. This Western Persona 5 Royal Battle Bundle includes the following:

And while the investigator Akechi is not new to Persona 5 Royal, his social link has been totally revamped. You now bond with Akechi in your own time, rather than via scripted events, much like the other characters in the game. He has several new scenes, which better flesh him out as a character, and offer valuable insights that for returning players are worth exploring. Persona 5 Royal finally arrived in the West on March 31, 2020 and with it came a plethora of DLC including both free and paid content. There were multiple editions and DLC bundles released for the game on PS4. For the new PS5, Nintendo Switch, Xbox Series X, Xbox One, and Steam versions of the game, all the P5R DLC will be included from the start as confirmed by Atlus West. There are also new physical editions. This guide will cover all the DLC available for Persona 5 and the new DLC for Persona 5 Royal that you should know about if you own the PS4 version or want to play it this next month on new platforms like Nintendo Switch, PS5, Xbox, and Steam. This Persona 5 Royal Complete DLC guide will cover it all. Persona 5 Royal for Nintendo Switch, PS5, Steam, and Xbox Takuto, on the other hand, is dropped relatively seamlessly into the existing narrative. After the events of the game’s first dungeon, in which a teacher is unmasked as having been abusing students, Takuto is brought in to provide much-needed mental health support to you and your classmates. While your visits to the new counselor are optional, and left for you to fit into your busy schedule, your other party members will visit him of their own accord throughout the game, providing nice glimpses of insight into the mental health struggles of a group of teens trying to change the world.

Updated on September 14, 2022 at 9 PM – Added details for the Persona 5 Royal Complete DLC guide covering the PS5, Nintendo Switch, Steam, Xbox Series X, and Xbox Game Pass versions and the new limited editions. Le Grimoire Art Frame - Plastic art frame inspired by Justine’s Le Grimoire clipboard from the Velvet Room. Persona 5 base game on PS4 was my first and only foray into the series and it was an unquestionable joyous pleasure. As it seems is the case with a lot of other Atlus offerings the game is split between two genres, this time- JRPG & Life Sim. Also the case with many Atlus games, Persona 5 just oozes endless style, flare, polish and pizazz. The visuals, music & content are all phenomenal. In short: yes. Persona 5 Royal feels like a new game. If you’re not convinced, here’s a handy breakdown of all the non-spoiler additions and alterations made in the 2020 upgrade. Persona 5 Royal adds more than 20 hours of new gameplay

Akechi’ s Briefcase Bag - a replica of the boy detective Akechi’s signature briefcase, now a 15” bag with a logo on the front. Note that as of now, pricing is only available for the North American release. Pricing details for Europe, India, and more will be added here when available. Persona 5 Royal Kasumi Costume Bundle DLC detailsAs with Persona 5, Persona 5 Royal has some Personas available as paid DLC. The ones released for Persona 5 Royal in Japan include late-game Personas from Persona 4, Persona 3, and even one designed exclusively for Persona 5 Royal. The Personas were sold separately in Japan but this bundle likely includes the new Personas. The Western Persona 5 Royal Persona Bundle includes the following: CGMagazine gave Persona 5 Royal a score of 9/10 and called it "one of the best Switch ports to date": A big chunk of the additional gameplay comes from the “ Third Semester,” a new section featuring fresh narrative elements, an additional Palace, and more explorable content. The Phantom Thieves also undergo massive alterations in this portion. For example, the cat mascot, Morgana, becomes a human male. The Third Semester extends the playable story to mid-February. Be aware of some problematic plot elements that are not totally fixed. But the game is stylish, full of things to do, and still one of the most interesting JRPGs of this console generation. The only truly terrible aspect of dungeon exploration — inexplicably bad in the original game, and not much improved in Royal — is negotiation conversations when trying to convince new Personas to join your team. They’re still bizarrely written; each question Personas ask just doesn’t match the dialogue options I’m given to respond with. It’s bafflingly stilted writing in an otherwise brilliantly written game.

Whilst we will do everything we can to meet the delivery times above, there may be factors outside of our control and we cannot guarantee delivery within this time frame. Now that Sega and Atlus have started to bring the previously-PlayStation exclusive series’s main entries to all platforms this week, the question immediately became how the Switch would handle a game previously exclusive to the PlayStation 4. And after several months of student life and stylish fighting, Persona 5 Royal holds up perfectly in its portable form."Personas now each come with an innate trait in Royal, a special ability that can range from ice moves costing less SP to an immunity to physical hits. These traits are able to be passed on through persona fusion, offering an extra layer of customization depth as you work out how to get a useful ability onto the correct resulting persona. While I initially didn’t pay much attention to these traits, by the late game I was spending time fusing persona explicitly to try and get a set trait onto a specific high-level creature. Regardless, it's worth a little look — it might just steal your heart, after all. The 1 More Edition comes with multiple little goodies, including a treasure chest to store everything in. Image: Atlus
