Persona 5 Royal: Steelbook Launch Edition for PlayStation 4

Product Information

There’s one other story point that I feel can’t be ignored. Before the release of Royal, Atlus made a big deal online about the fact that the English localization team was planning to update a controversial scene from the original game. The localizers did change it, but their changes really didn’t go far enough, and the scene is still not great.

First up, Nintendo World Report awarded the game a score of 9/10, highlighting its seamless transition to the Switch: Returning players might notice that Palace layouts have been tweaked slightly to accommodate Royal’s new grappling hook. It feels less impactful than many other improvements; using it for traversal feels almost unnecessary. But some grappling hook points can lead to hidden rooms with Will Seeds, a completely new item in Royal. Each individual one you collect will restore some SP to help you get through the dungeon in a single sitting, and collecting all three allows you to gain a powerful in-game item. Finding these seeds is just the right level of optional challenge to dungeon exploration. Each dungeon’s final seed is guarded by a super tough enemy that I would argue is at times more challenging to defeat than the dungeon boss. Finally, Vooks awarded the game a 9/10 and highlighted the gameplay and presentation, but stated that the game is "too damn long" (we respectfully disagree):Jose, a new NPC only found in Mementos, is studying humans, and wants you to bring him flowers and stamps to help his research.

Beyond those obvious additions, Atlus made a lot of minor tweaks to the wider game, which make its moment-to-moment gameplay more enjoyable. Certain plot-important scenes that were previously silent now feature full voice acting; Confidants now call you after hangouts, helping you raise their rank faster; and Morgana no longer shouts at you to go straight to bed all the time. You may not always be able to go out at night, but you’ll always have the option of watching TV, studying, reading a book, building tools, or brewing coffee on nights when you’re too tired to leave the house, giving you so much more time to raise your stats. I can’t tell you how happy I was at not being constantly told to go to sleep when I just wanted to go downstairs and make coffee. These little changes all make the world of Royal a little less stilted, and a little more alive, which helps the pace of the game feel a lot smoother. In addition to all these flashy details, Royal polishes the base game. The most obvious distinction is that Atlus improved the graphics by pulling from 2018's P5 Dancing for character models. Visuals can now be displayed in 4K. Honestly, when it comes to my overall thoughts on Persona 5 Royal, they’re pretty simple. If you loved the original game and have been wanting to replay it, there are plenty of quality-of-life improvements to make your replay smoother, and the additional content in the third semester is a real treat.

Atlus West is making all DLC from the base game available for free for Persona 5 Royal players. The DLC for Persona 5 includes the following sets and DLC:

Persona 5 base game on PS4 was my first and only foray into the series and it was an unquestionable joyous pleasure. As it seems is the case with a lot of other Atlus offerings the game is split between two genres, this time- JRPG & Life Sim. Also the case with many Atlus games, Persona 5 just oozes endless style, flare, polish and pizazz. The visuals, music & content are all phenomenal.
