Persona 5 Royal for the Nintendo Switch, Xbox Series X/S and PS5 is the best way to play Atlus’ award-winning JRPG, with all of the previous DLC included. However, completing the game’s main story can take more than 100 hours, and it’s easy to miss a big chunk of the game without proper planning. For players who are willing to invest their time, though, Persona 5 Royal delivers an intriguing coming-of-age story set against the backdrop of modern Tokyo.

Persona 5 Royal is the definitive version of the modern classic JRPG, merging new elements that fit naturally but not quite fixing some of its most noticeable flaws.

Persona 5 was already a strong front-runner for being the best JRPG ever made, and Royal really gets me wondering what else could even compete. The excellent story and its lovable, multidimensional characters along with the challenging, tactical combat are all refined and back for another round with new surprises and new friends in tow. There are new areas to explore and new twists to leave your jaw on the floor. Very little has been left untouched, and just about everything that has been touched is better off for it. The Phantom Thieves have stolen my heart all over again, and I don’t really want it back.
