It’s been said in plenty of other places on DualShockers, but for me, Persona 5 is simply a stellar game; one that I wouldn’t think could be easily followed up between its exceptional music, stylish visuals, and incredible RPG gameplay. By the time I finished Persona 5 Royal last year, I knew its world and
Leading up to the launch of Persona 5 Strikers, Cassandra Lee Morris (Morgana’s VA) has been interviewing her cast members quarantine style in a fun and informative series of “Voice Actors Chat.” The most recent one stars Ryuji’s VA, Max Mittelman, in which the two (according to the official description) “chat about college, how we

Even though I spent just short of 100 hours with Persona 5 Royal last summer, it was arguably the fastest 100 hours that I’ve likely spent with any game. Banding together with the Phantom Thieves to steal hearts and take down the most corrupt denizens of Tokyo never lost its charm thanks to its effortless
Earlier this month, the Persona 5 Strikers announcement trailer was leaked online prior to its proper drop date and Persona 5 fans rejoiced at the news.

While Persona 5 Royal gave players a chance to jump back into Tokyo this year with the Phantom Thieves, the expanded re-release isn’t the only trick that they have up their sleeves. As Atlus confirmed this week, Persona 5 Strikers–released in Japan as Persona 5 Scramble: The Phantom Strikers earlier this year–is making its way to the
As someone that played through Persona 5 Royal over the summer, I’ve continued to miss my time spent with the Phantom Thieves after finally completing the game for the first time. Even compared to past Persona titles, the cast in Persona 5 really grew on me in ways that I didn’t expect, aside from the fact that
While Persona fans have had a lot to look forward to recently–including the launch of Persona 5 Royal this past spring–many in the west have been eagerly waiting for news on the series’ Musou-style crossover. Released in Japan as Persona 5 Scramble earlier this year, the title is now coming to the west as Persona 5 Strikers,
One of the most anticipated game announcements is finally out in the wild.

Koei Tecmo and Nintendo revealed two new commercials for Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity, revealing more gameplay in the process.

Koei Tecmo and Nintendo held another Hyrule Warriors Age of Calamity stream at TGS 2020, on the Game Live Japan stream of Famitsu and Dengeki Online.

My last review was for a game based on My Hero Academia, an anime series I’ve never seen. That impacted my entire approach to the game as I was playing it as an outsider. This time around, playing One Piece: Pirate Warriors 4, the situation is different, but not all that much. I loved watching

Famitsu published online their sales estimate in Japan for the time period of February 17- February 23, 2020, including sales for Persona 5 Scramble.

Atlus published a new video featuring Navi/Futaba of the Phantom Thieves explaining “in three minutes” Persona 5 Scramble The Phantom Strikers and why we should be hyped about it.
