Related: Joker In Persona 5 Is An Idiot Please Treat Him Like One If you jump into something halfway through instead of at the beginning, you’re going to fundamentally misunderstand the characters, plot, and just about everything else that follows. Who’s this Frodo lad? What’s up with this weird ring? Why is Aragorn so happy to see this wizard guy in a forest - are they mates? By the time you get to The Return of the King you’re probably thinking, “Wow, Denethor prefers a character who I’ve never ever seen before to Faramir, that’s cold.” For what it’s worth, the films did Boromir dirty anyway, so I don’t think his Fellowship of the Ring film appearance should be given much weight - despite Sean Bean’s excellent performance - but you get the gist. Imagine you’re watching The Lord of the Rings for the first time, right, and you start with The Two Towers. I can’t believe I’m writing this - I sound like a Kingdom Hearts fan.

Persona 5, on the other hand, does have a sequel - Persona 5 Strikers, or for ease of comprehension, Persona 5-2.

It tells a similar story to Persona 5, but adds in a whole new ending sequence - which is arguably a lot stronger than the base game - and has no official sequels. Putting Persona 5 on Steam is giving yourself a license to print money, so there must be some behind the scenes reason for Atlus saying, “Actually, we’re alright with a lighter wallet.” That being said, at least Persona 5 Royal is its own cohesive entity. I mean, it would be great if Sega and Atlus just put every Persona game ever made on Steam, especially considering how well Persona 4 Golden performed, but I understand that there’s probably more to it than that. I’d love for Royal to come to PC - who doesn’t want a Ryuji romance mod? - although I recognize it’s not very likely to happen.

It’s got everything the series is known and loved for, and the sheer swagger of its stylistic flair is stunning. It’s the definitive version of Persona 5, adding in all kinds of quality-of-life changes as well as an entire term’s worth of additional narrative content. As someone who has played through all of these games - two of them multiple times - I can confidently say that Persona 5 Royal is the best one. This, reader, is completely stupid.įor those unacquainted with Strikers, it serves as a sequel to Persona 5, but not Persona 5 Royal. I played through Persona 5 Strikers on PS4, but it’s also available on both PC and Nintendo Switch.
