Customer Ratings & Reviews

I waited for this game for nearly 4 years after playing Persona 4 Golden on the Vita, and I know many people who waited longer since the original Persona 4 came out on the PS2 nearly a decade ago. The wait was so worth it. Persona 5 fixes almost every issue from Persona 4 Golden and adds a lot more to the table along with a completely new story, characters, acid jazz OST, and more. It took me about 135-140 hours to finish the story and it went by in a flash. I know there are others who finished the game in about 90 or so and I've also seen people who went up into the 180 range. I feel like I can recommend it to anyone looking for something new to try out, those who wish for an immersive game, and especially JRPG fans. I was able to get a friend who had never played a JRPG and hated anime to play this and he absolutely loves the game so far. The game does have a few flaws but they are very minuscule and don't hamper the game or experience at all. Do yourself a favor and get this game

Best JRPG nuff said. Great characters and great look. Not many games out there look like this.

This game is very interesting compare to different games. Highly recommended for PS4 owner.

Everying you know and love about Persona is present, but with spins that won't make a stale series. Must buy for fans and a great game for first timers. Since the Persona games don't follow a storyline, you can jump in at any point. This is definitely a great place to start.

Quite simply put, this is one of the best gaming "experiences" of this generation. With an eye on brevity, I'd just like to offer a few bullet points which makes this game enjoyable. The game is very charming, unique, has tremendous artistic flair, fun and engaging combat, tells an engrossing story, has memorable characters, deals with heavy hitting social issues, has many gameplay hours, a killer soundtrack to tie everything together, and will stick with you after playing it. Highly recommended for both RPG aficionados and newcomers to role-playing games alike. This game has a bit of everything for everyone.

This game is fantastic for those that are into RPGs. It's exciting with a cool art style.

If you love JRPGs then this game is a must buy. It's one of my favorite PS4 exclusives.

Sunset it was one of the best games ever played he played it all the way to the finish

New comer to the series and game looks and plays great. Loads to explore and enjoy

I had played the previous Persona games, this one is absolutely the best one yet!

Not into this genre at all, but this is a fantastic game. I wasn't expecting this game to be this high of quality but its definitely worth the purchase. Not a game for everyone but it is for me. Also the soundtrack is way too good.

I still haven't play it but the game it looks so awesome ,very nice looking game

Honestly unlike any game I’ve ever played - and I can truly say I’ll never forget it! It’s long, and there isn’t a lot of traditional action and there’s a lot of reading. But I hope those things don’t scare you off because this game is flat out great!

Simply put: game is a long, eventful and immersive journey. It’s besutifully written, well paced and features a beautiful assortment of characters, relationships and story that makes the game leave an imprint on you after you’ve finished it.

Very cool game Had lots of fun playing it is always fun to play with my friends

Another great release and addition to the series. Addicting and thrilling story!

This game is very unique as with any persona game. Great combat system and story

I had never played a Japanese Role Playing Game (JRPG) before so I decided to pick up Persona 5 based on stellar reviews. Best JRPG for the PS4 and the top game overall for 2017 for the PS4 according to many websites. However, after 20 hours into the game, I'm ready to quit. First the good. Fantastic, meaningful storyline, really unusual for a video game. The themes deal with oppression by the powerful and how we, as individuals, need to take a stand. The graphics are beautiful. It makes you feel as if you are actually playing a Japanese anime and the it's better looking than many animes I have seen. Finally, the characters are well developed and you get to know and actually care about the friends you make. The bad. Constant loading screens. Every time you go to a new location, which is often, the game needs five to seven seconds to load. I find myself getting really impatient during these loading screens, just wanting to get to the next place. Also, hate the combat. I have never played a turn based system. Basically, when it's your turn, you choose a weapon or a spell to use. Depending on your stats and some luck, a certain amount of damage is done. On the enemy's turn, same thing happens. To me, it's all very boring. Don't get me wrong. This is not a bad game. This just isn't the type of game that I personally like.

Great game with hours and hours of stuff to do that will take all of your time

This is a unique RPG that combines social sim and turn based battle mechanics.
