Persona 5 Strikers

"Omega Force has made an incredible effort to keep the essence of Persona within a musou, but the fight is lost between two waters. The best thing is again the talks between the phantom thieves and spending an atypical summer …"

"If you liked Persona 5 (is there anyone who didn&s;t?), Strikers should be a no-brainer choice. The gameplay isn&s;t exactly our cup of tea, but the story is so interesting, the characters are so lovable and it just looks SO …"

"Persona 5 Strikers suffers from some of the same faults as other Musou games, but this collaboration highly benefits from the strength of the source material. Even if you have no interest in the genre, if you enjoy Persona in …"

"Regardless of the issues I had, Persona 5 Strikers is still a fantastic sequel, Persona game, and Musou game. It really is impressive the amount of content they jammed into this game, and the fact that they added way more …"

"Persona 5 Strikers plays it way too safe on all fronts, sticking with known quantities rather than taking bold leaps. It spends too much time revisiting classic moments from Persona 5, rather than telling its own unique story."

"Persona 5 Strikers is a fun sequel that builds off the first year of the Phantom Thieves and might be the kind of action-packed sequel that only true fans of the original Persona 5 will desire for."

"Fusing the rich game world of Persona with real-time combat, Omega Force and P-Studio have created a new Persona of their own and it is a worthy addition to a classic franchise."

"Persona 5 Strikers is a slick and stylish spin-off that manages to successfully combine a surprisingly strong story with some satisfying Musou-inspired hack-and-slash action. There are a few issues here and there, with some necessary grinding at points, slight difficulty …"

"It&s;s all style and little substance in this sequel/spinoff to Persona 5."

"Persona 5 Strikers&s; simple real-time combat is consistently engaging, and its summer vacation story (while slimmed down) is a sequel nearly worthy of the &s;2&s; it lacks at the end of its title."
