Review: Persona 5 Strikers

Persona is a series that is rich with spin-offs. It’s been that way since Persona 4, so, as a big fan of Persona 5, I was what you might call moderately excited when they announced a Musou-style game developed by Omega Force. If you’re like most, you probably assumed Persona 5 Strikers would be a known quantity, a game like Hyrule Warriors or One Piece Pirate Warriors. Simply take the Persona IP and plugin Dynasty Warriors-style play. I assumed the same, and I’m delighted to tell you how wrong I was. Persona 5 Strikers is more Persona game than Musou game, and more action RPG than senseless beat’em up, and I couldn’t be more delighted by that.
