The difference is having to execute all of this in real time, against legions of cannon-fodder Shadows, and dozens of tiny smart decisions have been made to not only make facing those hordes feel fast, fluid, and gratifying, but to ensure that each Phantom Thief is distinctly unique in their own way. Strikers takes place six months after the original ending to Persona 5 (aside from Showtime attacks, there’s a dearth of callbacks to Persona 5 Royal), and many of the rules of combat-in terms of how collecting and leveling up Personas, magic, weaknesses, technical hits, and stealth work-are virtually unchanged. Having played Persona 5 all the way through is a necessity going in, in ways that reading Romance of the Three Kingdoms or playing Breath of the Wild isn’t necessary before taking on, respectively, Dynasty Warriors or Hyrule Warriors. But in action, this is a glorious outlier in the arena of games that take more than a few pages from the Dynasty Warriors playbook, as this isn’t a Dynasty Warriors game with Persona 5 characters, but a full-fledged Persona 5 sequel whose combat system just happens to bear a mild resemblance to that of a Dynasty Warriors hack-and-slash-athon.įor that reason, Strikers is also slightly less accessible than other musou games. That success wasn’t expected, considering that Strikers is, on paper, another familiar Omega Force musou game-not exactly the gold standard when it comes to storytelling. Regardless of whether or not you see the light at the end of the pandemic tunnel, it’s going to hit you hard to see these friends together and know that the world is open to them, but this one scene would be meaningless if the remainder of the game didn’t sustain the stellar character development and world building previously established by Persona 5. The series’s tightlipped protagonist, Joker, returns to the Leblanc coffee shop and to all his favorite people, the Phantom Thieves, a tiny bit older, a tiny bit wiser, and with an entire golden summer ahead. We’ll have to wait and see what announcements Atlus make throughout the year, but below you’ll discover why there is no Kasumi in Persona 5 Strikers.The opening hours of Persona 5 Strikers feel like a family reunion.

While the upcoming release is no doubt exciting, fans shouldn’t forget that Atlus have big plans for 2021 thanks to it marking the series’ 25th anniversary. Some people are asking why is there no Kasumi in Persona 5 Strikers, and here you’ll discover everything you must know including whether the game is a sequel to Royal or the original 2016 experience.
Ultimate, and Atlus have released a new Liberate Hearts trailer to whet the appetites of gamers. It marks another appearance for Joker on the Nintendo Switch after making his debut via Super Smash Bros.
