Persona 5 Royal on the go

When I first played Persona 5 back in 2018, I could help but feel the whole time that I wosh it was on th switch so I could take it with me and play for short bits whenever I had down time. The game is long, but it is one of the most unique and stylish turn-based rpgs ever made. Everything about Persona 5 is enthralling, from the music, to the characters, to the story, to the strategic combat. Persona 5 Royal took the vanilla release and added a ton of new and interesting content. The switch release looks and runs great. You will not miss out on anything by getting the switch version. If you are at least a little interested in the game and were thinking about getting it for switch, I would highly recommend! The steelbook is very nice if still available.

I was so excited when Nintendo announced that Persona 5 was being ported over to the Switch, so it was a must that I pre-ordered a copy. I am a little over 10 hours into the game and am enjoying every minute. The gameplay is a combination of dungeon crawler, turn based combat, and social simulation. If you are into any of these styles of gameplay then you will be more than happy with this game.

This game is amazing. I bought the steelbook version just based off of the reviews. Once played, it took me a while to figure it out. But once i did i was engaged in the story and the turn based combat. Story is amazing. And the relationships you build with in-game characters is amazing too. Give it a chance, and once it clicks-in it'll be one of the best games you've played. Also a big plus that the game is super long, so take you're time, and enjoy it. Im halfway playing it (70hours in), and it just keeps getting better and better. It has extremely high reviews for a reason. Give it time , and a chance and you'll eventually see why ( it's also worth its price). Highly recommended!!!!!!!

The Phantom Thieves of Hearts return once more! This time on the Nintendo Switch. Play on the TV or on the go. With the added benefit of portability those with less free time at home will be able to enjoy this game wherever they please. Performance wise it is similar to the PS4 release resolution is 720p on handheld however if you own the Switch OLED the colors are far more vibrant. A true must own for all Persona fans

This is the second time I purchase Persona 5 and its strictly because I can play it on the go with my switch. The game runs very smoothly and looks great! Its an amazing experience especially when its in hand-held mode. Also the music is unforgettable, this is a must play title on the switch.

I love Persona 5...in fact this was my third time buying the game. Have the original release for ps4, Royal for ps4, and who it came out for the Switch I couldn't resist being able to play it on the go. Looks and runs great both in docked and handheld. Play this game!

Very good art style and story. Combat can get a little tedious but progressing the story makes you want to keep going. 100s of hours of content.

Purchased the PS4 version a few years ago and immediately fell in love. But because my PS4 is in my home theater, I didn't get as much uninterrupted time to play it as I liked.
Now that I own it on the Switch, I can play it in bursts or on the go. It runs great and looks fantastic with minimal issues so far.
