Compelling canon continuation of the Persona 5 story and character arcs. Exceptional visual style and high-energy soundtrack consistent with the series' high standards. Substantial amount of content providing 40-50+ hours of gameplay. Engaging action-packed combat that offers a fresh change of pace for the franchise.

What are the cons of Persona® 5 Strikers?

Technical issues including frequent crashing, freezing, and a lack of Steam Cloud saves. Combat can feel clunky, repetitive, and overly linear compared to the main series. Poor PC port optimization requiring manual tinkering for some users. Initial palaces and early-game pacing can feel uninteresting or slow.

AI Review Summary

Persona 5 Strikers is a stylish action-RPG that serves as a direct narrative sequel to Persona 5, offering fans another 50+ hours with the Phantom Thieves. While it successfully retains the series' iconic aesthetic and soundtrack, the shift from turn-based combat to Musou-style action is polarizing due to repetitive mechanics and technical instability.
