Is Persona 5 Strikers a good starting point if you're new to Persona? There are a few things to consider before you dive in.
Since its release in 2016, the "Persona 5" series has won numerous game awards around the world and received enthusiastic support from everyone, with cumulative sales of over 10 million units worldwide.
SEGA and Atlus kicked off a pretty major Switch eShop sale this week with multiple titles at their lowest prices yet including Persona 5 Strikers, Sonic Mania, and more. The same also goes for Catherine: Full Body and slew of SEGA Ages titles.
Sega has released their financial integrated report for fiscal year ended March 2022, with sales updates for Persona and Shin Megami Tensei.
The Megaten series has been up there with Fire Emblem and Final Fantasy, for me. So glad people are checking out these games. I’m actually playing Persona 5 Royal right now. Just such a damn good game!
I don't get why Atlus would do this. Why release the "sequel" on the Switch first?
It's such a good game so far and I'm very much sold on the 'jails' and new combat system.
It will make it difficult to go back to turn based but if Persona 6 is a more in depth version of this with confidants, I'd be happy.
On that note, this game probably is fine to play without Persona 5 but you'd struggle to follow bits of the personal stories.
If they haven't played P5 at all, you best probably start there?
If you only have a switch and not a PS4/5(And P5 was also on ps3) get the free 15 day trial for funimation and watch the P5 anime that has the same voice actors/ music that covers the story of the game.
No, that’s like asking if Final Fantasy Tactics is a good starting point for newcomers... although, it’s a damn good game.
