Persona 5 Strikers - Digital Deluxe Edition (Download) (PC)

Es ist viel mehr als nur ein weiterer Warriors-Klon und wird zu einem Action-RPG, welches sich jeder Fan der Reihe auf jeden Fall anschauen sollte. Die Story ist nicht mit dem Niveau eines Persona 5 vergleichbar, aber die Liebe zum Detail und der spaßige Sommertrip quer durch Japan machen dieses Spiel zu einem tollen Urlaub mit liebgewonnenen Freunden – und Gefängnissen.

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 any fashion, this is worth picking up at some point as you patiently wait for the next big entry.

While it may not hold onto everything that made its forebear a phenomenon, the new elements it brings to the table more than make up for it, and show that the series’ future lies in more than just straight-forward turn-based JRPGs. It’s an experience fans will find more than enough to love about, and that will give them plenty of hope for the series’ bright future.

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

I almost forgot I was playing a musou-style game developed by Koei Tecmo and Omega-Force, and I think that's a testament to how sharp Strikers is as a Persona game. If you have any love for Persona 5, what say you save the world one more time with some old friends?

Even if the action of Strikers is very different, the spirit and heart of the mainline series carries into this enjoyable sequel.

It takes a formula that is proven to work and takes it to a new place by adding a whole new combat system that allows you to play as the whole team, rather than the main character we’re all used to. This said, and although Persona 5 Strikers is excellent in its own right, there’s enough that's been stripped back to make this game work that it can't reach the lofty heights of the original.
