May 4, 2020The upgraded version of one of the finest game of all time; new characters and tracks, improved interactions, better game mechanichs, more dynamic dungeons and even more diversity in casual battles. A brand new game, totally worthly of the expense. Too bad for the "true ending" final cutscene, for me a bit unsadisfaying.

Apr 11, 2020A great game with an great extension to the story and even though it was longer than original Person 5 I did not feel burnt out by the 6th dungeon. Got the Platinum Trophie on my first run aswell so 9/10 I want more.

Mar 31, 2020its a 10 what else is there to say about it? your adding extra to a game that was already considered one of the best jrpg of this generation and some people’s favorite game of all time really nothing else to add lol
-
Mar 31, 2020Original Persona 5 was already a fantastic game, but Persona 5 Royal made a step even further by adding tons of new activities. New characters, fantastic soundtrack, bosses, personas etc. make game even better. More achievements were added and confidant system was improved. More DLC personas were added to the store, and they are fantastic in terms of gameplay.

Mar 31, 2020This is the best jrpg of all time hands down ! It can’t be put into words . You have to play it to understand it’s perfection! Thanks atlas!
-
Mar 31, 2020Persona 5 was a great game on its own but Persona 5 Royal made persona 5 an absolutely amazing game deserving a 10/10 rating.

Jun 19, 2020I am a real sucker for a well put together jrpg. The game is stylish, but so was persona 5, so no surprise there. The new addition to the story fit in well, and the redesigned palaces were a lot of fun. Atlus would be on point if they would stop making nickel-and-dime style dlc and start focusing more on sequels of their flagship games instead of spinoffs.

Jun 21, 2020Excellent 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. -
Jun 27, 2020Very Nice Game, makes a lot of Fun. The Battle-System is simple but have a lot of littlte Features (I hope you get it)
Only the Tutorial is a little bit too long. But the rest is near to the perfect.
JRPGs Fans must play -
Jun 24, 2020This game is just as good as the original Persona 5, Royal changes and adds a lot of quality of life features that improve the overall gameplay experience. The story is also expanded to make the gameplay last an average of 10-20 hours extra.

Jun 20, 2020I loved the gameplay and the characters, but got a bit fed up of the gameplay loop by the end.
I would still recommend that everyone plays this. Persona 5 is a modern jrpg done right
Graphics 9/10
Gameplay 7/10
Story 8/10 -
Aug 21, 2020This was a great game! The third semester was easily my favorite part of the whole game so yeah I recommend this game to everyone who was some hours to spend!

Jun 19, 2020The addition to the original Persona 5 is not enough for a full-price game.
However, the original P5 was good, and this game is also good. -

Sep 9, 2020Persona 5 Royal takes a couple of those annoying little things you had in the original P5 and makes them enjoyable, with an extension to the story and its wide selection characters.

Jul 26, 2020This game is best for people who have never played the original Persona5. It enhances the game in terms of both gameplay and story, also makes the first experience much better compared to the original game. However, If you already own the vanilla P5 and know about the story, the full game price tag might seem a bit too much. Still, this is the superior version, thus deserves the score it has.
-
Jul 27, 2020This was my first persona game and I LOVED IT! if you're a fan of games with great stories, characters and soundtrack then this is for you, it starts off slow tho but stick with it trust me its worth it.
-
Aug 7, 2020Made a great game even better, this has tons of content to go through so make sure you set time for this game cuz it will take you a while, which imo is an awesome thing as this game will keep you occupied for a while to justify its price tag.

Sep 3, 2020I havent played the original game. Amazing story, well written dialogs, decent gameplay, very good attention to details
-
Sep 12, 2020Became a huge fan of Persona after playing P5. Played P5R and I'm still a huge fan. The game is great and definitely worth picking up.

Nov 25, 2020I'll never forger this 175 hours journey.
Thanks Atlus, P5R will be my life game. -

May 19, 2020Overlapping of voices in battles. It is the only issue that causes problem for this game.
-
May 25, 2020Persona 5 Royal released on March 31st 2020 is a rerealse to Persona 5. The game has new content that expands 2 months. If you are wondering if you shoukd buy this over the orginal, you should get this one since it has the most content and new features.
-
May 27, 2020I have never been more captivated by a game emotionally as much as this. The extra content and upgraded graphics are amazing. I have played this game 4 times and have watched 3 playthroughs.
-
May 27, 2020It's actually a decent game and I loved playing it! Hope they release sequel soon
-
May 26, 2020Best Game in the History! Best game ever! Best JRPG Forever. Best Scenary, best characters, best protagonist, best soundtrack, best style, best Atlus game. Nothing to say anymore.
-
May 28, 2020160hrs of greatness. Going above & beyond, it expands almost everything with an entire game's worth of new content. Fantastic additions (Kasumi & Maruki)
Refined confidants, notably Akechi. Better ending. QoL enhancements in all areas.
Easily Game of the Generation contender. -
May 21, 2020This game has it all —my roommates played this when it originally came out and I ignored it. I remember thinking “hah what a silly game.” I now know how wrong I was. If you are on the fence about getting this game just do yourself a favor and get it. You’ve probably played all that video games have to offer but this one is in a dimension of its own.

Jun 22, 2020After clocking in 400+ hours into this game, I can confidently say it's the best game you can play on the PS4. It's so much fun, which a riveting story and characters and fantastic game play and music.
Just play it. It's worth it. -

May 17, 2020Love the "new story" With some kinda twist on it, just finished with 96% trophy completion, and for me its 60$ Worthy

Jun 22, 2020This might be the best J-RPG, period. This game is long but interesting, characters are well developed, and you can do a lot of things in a really big and rich Tokyo. The combat system is really good. I spent more than 100 hours on the game, and never felt bored.
-
Jun 22, 2020awesome game. i had a very good time. Combat difficulty is quite enjoyable. Art style and story are my favorite part. masterpiece.
-
Jun 21, 2020Significantly better than the original which was already brilliant. The new characters & added content add so much to the story. It’s amazing.
-
Jun 22, 2020A beautiful story, a fantastic gameplay , superlative characters but it isn't the best SMT games , it could be the third or the fourth
-
Jun 22, 2020Best Game in the History! Best game ever! Best JRPG Forever. Best Scenary, best characters, best protagonist, best soundtrack, best style, best Atlus game. Nothing to say anymore.

May 30, 2020Persona 5 Royal is an experience to not be taken lightly. From beginning to end, this will create an immersion never seen in videogames before. The best game I have ever played, Persona 5 has stolen my heart and I don't want it back!
-
Jun 1, 2020IMO, literally the best JRPG ever made. P5 was already REALLY good, but Royal adds something that the original lacked, a satisfying ending. The only thing that I think they could've done better was the difficulty, they could've added a harder difficulty, but it's still fine if you don't abuse the fusions.

Mar 31, 2020After 150 hours with OG P5, did you feel it might not justifiyng to buy the same game again? No, you not right. This is the same game but mixed with new content pretty well.
Also #BreakFreePersona -
May 16, 2020Las notas bajas son de las personas sentidas por que el juego se venda a precio completo siendo una revisión. No están juzgando el juego en sí.
Que no les quepa dudas. Este juego es una obra maestra. Jueguenlo y lo disfrutarán :3 -

Jun 10, 2020Persona 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.
-
May 20, 2020This 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.
-
Apr 30, 2020All 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.
