It's been an exciting week for Persona fans. On top of a bunch of details about the upcoming Persona 4: The Golden and Persona 4: The Ultimate in Mayonaka Arena, series developer Atlus has finally let slip confirmation that Persona 5 is also in the works. Japanese gaming magazine Famitsu sat down with Katsura Hashino, who has been working on the series since Persona 3, to talk about the new titles.
Since its release in 2016, the "Persona 5" series has won numerous game awards around the world and received enthusiastic support from everyone, with cumulative sales of over 10 million units worldwide.
In the world of video games, there’s no genre quite as notoriously difficult to get into as the Turn-Based RPG. Lets review a few RPGs you can play if you’ve tried the biggest and best in turn-based combat and never found it appealing.
Sea of stars while seeming pretty good so far doesn't belong in the top rpg discussion. There's way better ones. I'd tell them to play star ocean 2. One of the best non turn based rpgs ever. It has everything.
And if the list is limited to just turn-based RPGs, I can think of better ones to add to this list. You have the Dragon Quest series, the Trails series…Persona 5 Royale is on the list but why limit it to just that one? P3 and P4 were great as well.
The Legend of Dragoon, Legend of Legaia, or the Shadow Hearts games has decent enjoyable turn based combat system.
Atlus has announced a collaboration with a well-known Japanese distillery to launch the Persona series' very own whiskey, releasing tomorrow.
Better late--very, very late--than never.
Here's hoping they can continue to build on the very, very good foundations on the past few games.
I just hope they don't have another contrived ending where the MC "disappears" to parallel the player "leaving" the game world. Easily the only aspect of 3 and 4 that I genuinely disliked.
I love me some persona! ;)
Well, if you've been following Persona news closely, there's nothing new here... if I'm not wrong
Picked up P3P recently and I was really impressed with how much new stuff there was. WAAAY more than a typical re-release. I'm confident The Golden will be just as good. The Ultimate will be great too, if Blazblue's team is behind it. The only question is if/when they will come stateside.
Never played Persona, but I plan on getting Persona 4: Golden if it gets a UK release.
