    Uno dei migliori giochi mai creati, la trama è stupenda e complessa e terrà impegnato il giocatore per moltissime ore senza mai cadere nella banalità o nella noia, ogni ora di gioco è unica e irripetibile.

    Очевидно, что это лучшая JRPG. Ничего лучше ещё не было. Возможно, в будущем, 6 часть станет ещё лучше, но пока 10 из 10.

    I loved Persona 5 and it was one of my Favorite games of all times. Of course it had its flaws; Okumura’s palace, pacing later on, Mr Pancakes, and more.

Persona 5 Royal does an incredible job fixing all of these and brings so much more to the table. With the addition of two new Characters Kasumi and Maruki, it makes the end of the game perfect. The 3rd semester is the best part of the game from it’s incredible story telling to amazing music and of course the best boss battle in the whole game. This game also fixes issues from the previous games with a reworked battle system, a better and faster tutorial section and making Akechi a confidant that you have to rank up rather than story progression. Palaces have also been reworked for the inclusion of Jokers new grappling hook and the new Will seeds that grant you a special item that adds a powerful move to your arsenal. This fixes one of my biggest issues with vanilla P5 which was Okumuras Palace. It is entirely reworked and is way more enjoyable. Mementos has changed for the better as well; a new character Jose can change mementos cognition if you bring him stamps which give you the option to increase your EXP, Gold, and item gain as well as bringing him flowers you find along the path that you can trade in for some great items. But the biggest fix to Persona 5 Royal is Morgana will not tell you to go to sleep as often. This was so helpful for my first play through as I could hang out with confidants or raise my skill stats easier. Of course you will have to go to sleep after every trip to a palace or mementos but you can still use a certain confidant to be able to go out after. This has become my Favorite game of all time and I believe it is eligible for Game of the year. 10/10… Expand

    Persona 5 Royal is worth a new msrp price due to it's added content. However some of the addition's (such as the mini-game of darts) could've been put in the original.

Despite claims that it's exactly the same as the original...it's actually the opposite. Yes, the flow of the game is the same as the original, but the overall experience is very different.

    After stating the above, I cannot rate the game anymore than a 8. The reason is quite simple as to why...and it centers around DLC. The velvet room becomes a focus in Royal for it's challenge battles. However, once the 1st tier is complete...it becomes clear you can't advance to a different tier without buying DLC to do so. The DLC in question cost the equivalent of the game itself. Initially, I thought that you would have to buy the challenge battle DLC for Minato, and P4's protaganist, which would've been the right way to go. Aside from those two battles, the other battles are equivalent to tier 1's battles...basic. No one should have to pay for them, much less $59.99 to do so. Whoever made that decision (Atlus, and or Sega) should re-evaluate their business practices.    … Expand

    Spoiler-Free Review

    Intro

    Persona 5 Royal is a remake of the popular JRPG from 2017. Built from the ground up to work on PS4 unlike the original that was built with the PS3 in mind, P5R grabs the core concepts to try to build up to something greater than the original. While some might see this as a cash grab, is Royal able to stand on its two feet as a worthy addition in the franchise?

    Story/World Building - 3/3

    The story stays largely the same until the last 20 hours or so with minor script fixes and story elements, which are put in to help the new segment flow better with the rest of the story. Nothing feels unnatural with the new changes. Everything is done for the betterment of the game and I would have not noticed anything was off if this was my first time experiencing the story. It can get a bit boring and long-winded if you played through the story before but this depends on how much you care about fixes and the new story being presented. It turns a great story into a better one that is worth your time even if you have played the original.

    Gameplay – 4/4

    The new gameplay addition is where Royal really shines. The overhauled baton pass system makes fights quick and snappy. Exploring palaces is more fun due to the addition of Will Seeds - collectibles scattered throughout that give out great items and abilities to use if you find all of them. Mementos is even overhauled with the addition of collectibles that help give additional boosts in XP, items, and money, making Mementos exploration more fun than it has ever been. New side activities like playing darts to level up baton pass stats, going to the jazz club to get additional abilities, and going to the temple to meditate to gain more SP are all welcome additions. A game that gives you so much to do, you won’t see it all within one playthrough. You are also given more time to do these activities with the addition of not having Morgana tell you to go to sleep and the addition of 2 more months of game time added to the overall package. You can take breaks from the main game with the immensely fun addition of the thieves den, which allows you to hang out with your follow Phantom Thieves, playing card games, look at concept art, mess around with player models and customize your own palace. More stuff is unlocked through achievements made within the main game, adding more time and replay value to the game. The gameplay outshines the amazingly fun and additive first outing, making for a game that goes above and beyond in areas that I thought could not get better.

    Technical/Performance – 3/3

    Graphics fidelity upgrades are present within the game but some might not notice just casually playing through it. It looks as clean as the original with a few tweaks here and there to spruce it up. The real amazing technical achievement of Royal is its soundtrack. I love the music in the original but the new tracks outshines those as well. P5R is a highly polished technical marvel, especially when compared to other RPGs on the market.

    Verdict

    Persona 5 Royal is arguably the game Persona 5 should have been in the first place. I can understand that the PS3 did limit what they could do with the title but this is still a $60 re-release of a game that already on PS4. If you’re a huge fan of Persona or never played Persona 5, I can’t recommend this game enough. It’s almost flawless in every aspect and it’s a crowning achievement for what RPG can be. For everyone that does not fall within those two categories, I recommend waiting for a heavy price cut. I still would recommend this game to anyone who played the original but not for a full 60 dollars. I honestly gave the original Persona 5 a 10/10 and if I could give Royal a higher rating I would.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Persona 5 Royal is one or even may be the best games I've ever played.

    Before i will go into Persona 5 Royal, i want to briefly mention the Original Persona 5.

    Persona 5 was my very first Persona game, and it amazed me that a game could be this good.
    Even if i haven't completed all confidant rank, it was een experience you would never get with another game and i was so happy that I've played it.

    Back to Royal

    Royal his story is mostly the same in its normal period. (april 9th to december 24th)
    But with some new content like exploring Kichijoji, Darting and Biljard, the Jazz Club.
    And ofcourse with the new added characters "Kasumi" **** Takuto Maruki and Jose.

    The changed palaces and boss designs were a nice change and make it feel like you fight him for the first time again. The adding of Will Seeds was nice, if you collect all 3 of them and bring them to Jose you can get some pretty nice gear, but i didn't use them much because the SP3 adhesive 3 was much better to have on your entire team.

    If i need to give one negative opinion it needs to be to "The Okumura Arc"
    I don't know how they'd done it, but the boss is even worse then in the original Persona.
    The palace itself was good, only the boss was bad.

    But about Royal his exclusive content

    Kasumi or better to be known was Sumire **** was a amazing character that i thought at first sight that she was adorable, but after i finished the game and romanced Sumire, I was in love with the character. the cutscene where you find out that she actually is Sumire brought me to tears,
    I came really to a understanding why she wanted to be Kasumi.

    Takuto Maruki is one of the best "villains" (if you can even call him that) was an amazing surprise in the 3rd semester. The reason why he is doin all of the tings he does, comes from a good heart and differs not a lor from the Phantom Thiefs but Maruki took a step to far and gave people who maybe didn't want to be who want to be.

    I don't have to say a lot about Jose his character only that he was a funny character.
    and gave a fun boss fight at the end.

    One thing what surprised me, was the returning of Goro Akechi on the evening of december 24th
    I was in shock mostly with: How is this possible.
    But when i found out that Joker wished for Goro Akechi to come back
    made me tear up, even if Akechi didn't like to return from the dead.
    We knew that Joker didn't want Akechi dead but he wanted to gave him a second chance.

    The showtime attacks were a nice function to have when they appeared.
    I have 3 favorite showtime attacks

    The most funny one was Yusuke's and Ryuji
    The most badass one was Akechi and Joker
    The most adorable one and my personal favorite Sumire and Joker

    To talk about the Quality of Life updates were so good to have.

    The beton Pass what was in the original unlockable with a confidant rank
    Now is auto unlocked and can be upgraded by darting with your teammates.
    most of your teammates can go to max rank in 1 darting game
    this can be done to make sure the character can finish the game in the 4th round (by giving a special dialogue option)
    The only one who can get a bit tricky was Goro Akechi
    all of you other teammates choose a game of 301 however Akechi chooses for a game of 701.
    The Technical Damage can now also be upgraded by playing biljard of couple of times with your entire team. The Jazz club can be visited with one of your teammates to give them XP, rank up their stats or give them special moves. In the original Persona 5, you couldn't do anything, after visiting the metaverse But in Persona 5 Royal you can do stuff inside Lablanc until you get Rank 10 with Kawakami To go brief in on the story of the 3rd Semester I was a very tough to see all of your teammates happy and know that you have to choose to undo it (If you want the True ending) but Maruki's palace was a rollercoaster of emotions. When you find out about Rumi and what Maruki's did to her to make her "happy" was something to see that he wants to make people happy and he isn't scared to sacrifice his beloved one to make her happy. Maruki's was't a bad guy he was a good guy who took a step to far to help others. Persona 5 Royal felt easier then the original Persona 5 but it doesn't matter how easy a game is If you enjoyed the journey and you had fun with the game its fine. Enjoy the game however you want. Persona 5 Royal was one special journey for me. After 250 hours of a rollercoaster of emotions and sped so much time with everyone in the game. just gave me a very silent moment when the credits rolled. I've Romanced Sumire and even it was for a very short time. It felt that i finally was happy for a moment and felt that i actually had a girlfriend for a short time. I hope i will never forget this game and the fun i had in Persona 5 Royal Have a good day everyone and hope you enjoy it.    … Expand

It's a very text and story heavy RPG with a plot that is only ok on paper but is elevated to something near perfection thanks to the the characters and how you come to know them. The story's biggest strength is how the characters are written and how they interact with one another. it feels like hanging out with your own friends and it becomes very addicting getting to know them. The gameplay loop of hanging out with your confidants, maxing out your attributes, and using it all in dungeon runs is incredibly addicting. This game is for people looking for a character driven story role playing game, and is a perfect introduction Japanese role playing games in general, as it features many classic tropes (mainly in its combat) while doing many things unique to the series (the highschool simulation). It's such a good introduction to JRPGs that it may be hard to play others without holding them to the same high standards set here. Persona 5 Royal is easily one of the best games of all time and should not be missed.… Expand

The story flows pretty much the same until the third semester (which is the best part of the game by far by the way) so when you have moments that involve characters from royal it feels like an afterthought in way. I would have really liked it if the story incorporated the new content more naturally into the original story. But I gotta say i'm quite excited for the next Persona game since the writing on the new parts was quite the step up, overall I feel like the game is an 8.5 so i'll give it an 8, it would be a 9 or even 10 if the story was meshed up better in my opinion. Also maybe the 60$ price tag is a little too much ? Since the base game is already for about 20$ and you can probably watch the remaining 20 hours on youtube or something. I would personally but this game on 30$ or 40$.… Expand

It's one of the few games I'd give a rating of 11 to, if I could, but there's still a couple things wrong with thePersona 5 Royal is an amazing game for those who wish to pick up a JRPG for the first time, but furthermore, it's a game full of philosophy, deep narrative, great psychology, and above all, possibly the most beautiful design I've ever had the pleasure of witnessing in a game. It's one of the few games I'd give a rating of 11 to, if I could, but there's still a couple things wrong with the game.

    Now, I don't like giving out 10's willy nilly, but this is definitely a game that deserves it, simply because it has gone above and beyond what I would ever have expected. The Royal expansion adds to that punch, but also somewhat takes away from it.

    My biggest gripe with the Royal addition is that the plot is completely detached from the base of the game, for reasons I couldn't tell you without spoiling, and even then... still couldn't actually tell you. It's very confusing and odd. In prior Persona games, the expansion gives an explanation as to why things are the way they are, why the story began, etc. In Royal, it seems more like a completely different story was attached to Persona 5.

    Don't get me wrong; the Royal addition is amazing and compelling. It's a game you can discuss the philosophy of with friends and even family. The story is deep, riveting, and simply suggests that you ask yourself a variety of psychologically intensive questions, such as the reality of the happiness you seek, among many other things, deeper and not, which I couldn't possibly describe without breaking out into a full-blown 50 page essay.

    That being said, as I mentioned before, it is very detached from the main game. If you've never played the main game, and strictly played Persona 5 Royal, then I imagine you wouldn't feel very weirded-out by this, which is why I'm still rating this game a 10.

    Persona 5 Royal, when viewed separately, as a game which never had a predecessor, is such a stellar game that you'd be pressed to find a fault within it. No character within this story is a Mary Sue, a problem which Persona 4's Golden remaster slightly suffered from; they're all deep and polished, full of viable issues which every person has faced at least once in their lives, of that I'm sure.

    Something I wish to make a note of his how impressive it is that Persona 5 Royal never suffered from any "Mary Sue" within the game. As characters with incredible, society-defying powers, they are immediately placed upon pedestals, capable of being your typical "Hero of Justice" who wishes to reform the world, yet they aren't portrayed as heroes through the player's eyes, but as kids who were dealt a real **** hand throughout their lives, and are trying their best to maintain their composure in a world which has rejected their individuality.

    When it comes down to it, Persona 5 Royal is not only a great introduction for all who wish to enter the world of JRPG's, but it sets a precedent for the future of gaming: This is the kind of story a game can tell. This is the kind of world a player can be put into. With music and video, it transcends books; with gameplay and achievement, it transcends movies; and with story and depth, it transcends a game made just for fun. The fact that this game has one of the most addictive and exhilarating combat mechanics I've had the pleasure of enjoying when it comes to turn-based combat is just the biggest cherry on the top that makes me love this game not just for the story, but for the gameplay, the music, the characters, and you know what? That menu screen, too. I've seriously never seen a better UI for a video game. I genuinely jumped out of my chair in shock when I opened my menu screen, went through the different categories, and watched Joker swinging around.    … Expand

    it's just too good. It really fascinated me, despite playing persona 5 for more than 300 hours, I still feel the freshness and charisma that atlus brings in p5 royal.

    Excellent game. Best JRPG game I played for now! But new character Kasumi too late to join, can't even enough choose her in team already going to the end.
    To sum it up, absolutely one of the best JRPG game.

    I bought the original game thinking meh i want to play something new and this looks cool i will try it, and my god it was worth it, this game has everything that you could ask for a JRPG in the best way possible: Starting with an unforgettable cast of characters, to a stylish way to present the classic turn base combat, it has one of the best soundtrack i had ever heard and, of course, the narrative, every single detail in this game means something, whether it is related to character development, plot development or world building, every development in the story feels so fresh and at the same time so natural that i just makes me want to play more.
    When i finished Persona 5 i thought"well... I think i will never play a game capable of hitting myself as a human being so hard". And then they announced Royal, my fisrt thought was that if the modified the original that was already a Master Piece Royal could only be worst, even with that i bought it because of how much i liked the original.
    Now i have finished Royal... And surpassing all kinds of spectations that i could have had this game not only stole my heart, it completely destroyed it in joy, now i can say this with full conviction, this is the bes JRPG of all time,and just to say it, if Persona 6 its even close to Royal it will be one of the greatest JRPGs ever just as Persona 4 Golden is    … Expand

    I will keep this short. The original Persona 5 is a solid 8/10 game for me. It has a great story, revolutionary JRPG gameplay, and touches on many themes that modern society considers taboo. As for Persona 5 Royal, it's a cash grab. The game is advertised as the "game of the year" version, with enough added content to warrant a full $60 price.

Don't waste your money, P5R has very little story additions, very minimal gameplay improvements (that sometimes actually devalue the old gameplay systems that are in place), uses new voices for some characters that deliver an inferior performance, and censors some of its heavy topics from the first game. As a package it doesn't add enough new content to justify a full price, and in other instances removes or censors elements that were good from the first game. The persona 5 experience is better enjoyed in its vanilla original release form.… Expand

    I finally got to play my first Persona game and I'm so glad I got to do it by taking my time with it. This game is fantastic! At this point, there is not much I need say to praise it, since it has been beloved enough ever since its vanilla release, back in 2016, but I'll say a few things.

    This is probably the most stylish game I've ever played. From the menus, to story presentation,    I finally got to play my first Persona game and I'm so glad I got to do it by taking my time with it. This game is fantastic! At this point, there is not much I need say to praise it, since it has been beloved enough ever since its vanilla release, back in 2016, but I'll say a few things.

    This is probably the most stylish game I've ever played. From the menus, to story presentation, characters, personas and the entire combat system - Everything oozes style! It seems complicated at first, but you'll easily fall in love with how the game looks, sounds and plays with ease as you move forward.
    Although this is a traditional turn-based RPG, I just love how it tries its best to make EVERYTHING different! Battles are fast-paced and energetic, bosses are epic, story is heavy but light to absorb, the way you handle traditional mechanics on a JRPG (like HP, MP, items and etc) are completely different here and that's all due to the INCREDIBLE amount of depth that the system has. Fusing and hunting Personas always gives you something new and also a sense of progression that pays off when you battle (or outside of battles too). It's an incredible system that blends very well with the rest of the overall tone.
    Outside from palaces, fights and personas, there's an entire "real life simulation" that works very well. Nothing feels like a chore here and every side or main character tells an interesting story. It all just matters in the end! When the game says "Take your time" during load screens, they actually mean it, because managing it and experiencing the perks you get from it, is more than half of the game.
    Also, the soundtrack is superb. Every single song.
    Haven't felt like that with a soundtrack since Zelda BOTW.

    My complains that prevents this game from getting a perfect 10 lies in how overwhelmingly huge it can be - and unnecessarily so!
    TOO many tutorials, TOO many systems, conversations, mechanics, things to remember, things to do, Personas to acquire, confidants, statuses, items... It's all TOO MUCH! You will NOT experience all you can from only one playthrough, but playing 145 hours of it AGAIN won't come cheap and won't come soon. I love the amount of content and uniqueness in Royal, but it can feel very bloated, at times. Specially with so many missable things going on.
    Despite loving the story and characters, sometimes I felt that the writing and pacing was inconsistent and a tad repetitive. Nothing that broke my immersion from it, but it bothered me a little.
    Bosses were good, but not all of them. There were some great ones, but most felt very gimmicky. And what's up with Futaba?? She's a GREAT character, but seldom useful in fights! Why not just make her a regular character???

    Persona 5 is one of the most special and modern JRPGs ever. It packs an impactful story, with a meaningful and beautiful message, boxed inside a myriad of addictive gameplay mechanics and systems. It feels like a glorified visual novel and RPG hybrid. It works perfectly and it deserves your attention.
    And well, even if you don't have the time to play this behemoth, just give the OST a try, ok?

    I was hoping for a little more from this version of P5 as it was released at a full price, but nonetheless Royal takes a great gameplay from original and makes even better.

    Loved the original, but there was not nearly enough new content for a re-release.

    The game has a third semester and adds one month of gameplay and a new palace. I have to say, the third semester is flawless. Everything that is in here is absolutely flawless and necessary. The ending of the game conflicts me and has me thinking about my decisions.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Persona 5 is a great game, but Persona 5 Royal really touches up on areas that they really helps improve on the game play. It even allows to have access to some more character interactions then before with previous characters. If you do have a concern if you should play the original Persona 5, you don't need to. If your budget is something you worry about though, you could still go for the first Persona 5, but Persona 5 Royal is just a better upgraded version. The reason I am not giving it a 10/10 is because [Minor Spoilers] they do not really change anything from the first games story except add a new character and change Akechi's confidant from being story progression to doing it in your own time, and this isn't bad, but besides the third trimester, you could just play Persona 5 for the same story and a cheaper price. However this does not mean Persona 5 Royal is not worth it as it has some quality of life improvements and gets rid of some tedious parts from some of the palaces. The inclusion of will seeds was a nice touch palaces and gives you something extra to do, and if you're not a completionist you could just skip out on them, but the skills they give you for collecting all 3 in a palace could be quite worth it.
    -
    Overall Persona 5 Royal is a great game and is totally worth checking out if you're a Persona fan or if you're looking for something new to try. Do note that this game is at least 100+ hours of play time you are looking at so you're not gonna finish this very quickly especially if you're new to the series.    … Expand

    Persona 5 Royal allows players to experience the story they already love in a new way without losing any of the beauty from the original game. New and old characters get their chance to shine through and steal your heart, even the ones you never expected to. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, and maybe you’ll even feel a sense of justice for the infamous Phantom Thieves in the end. But one thing you won’t feel is regret in picking up Persona 5 Royal, as it’s truly the best Persona title, if not one of the best video games, I’ve ever experienced to date.

    This is not more of the same, this is not an optional add-on to the original game. This, my friends, is the perfect experience, down to the last letter, down to the last minute. Persona 5 Royal is a Japanese crown jewel.

    All of the new additions and content mean that Persona 5 Royal is a clear upgrade to the original. New players should seek this version without hesitation, although vets may find starting the game over from scratch to be too big an ask. Either way, there’s no doubt that Persona 5 Royal sits proudly on the throne of Peak Persona… or at least it will until Atlus decides they can do even more with it.
