This fast-paced Japanese RPG pushes the boundaries of the Persona franchise. With an edgy, unforgettable style, it combines role-playing elements, action sequences, and beautiful anime cut-scenes. The complex story follows a group of rebellious high-school students with a huge secret. When not going to classes or after-school jobs, they are Phantom Thieves - people with the supernatural ability to enter other people's minds. As the Thieves remake the world, one mind at a time, they get closer and closer to the ultimate secret. It could lead to redemption or to ruin. Persona 5 features tricky dungeons filled with traps and treasure, easy-to-learn but hard-to-master controls, and a profound and powerful story.

The Best JRPG in years.
As someone who's never touched a persona game in his life, I was blindsided by just how good this game was. The combat, story, and characters are top notch. There's hundreds of hours worth of compelling content to keep even the most ravenous RPG fan satisfied! I can't recommend this game enough, put this at the top of your Q right now!

Great game, but rent Persona 5 Royal Instead
This game is amazing, but Persona 5 Royal is an even better version of the game that is also available to rent on PS4.

Amazing!!!
As a fan of the series since Persona 2, I can say that this is(by far) the best of all of them. Everything, from the story to the gameplay is phenomenal. I would recommend this game to any rpg fan out there.

Very Good Experience and Best Jrpg of all time imo
Great story, characters, soundtrack, and if you don't like turn based like I do this is the strongest gameplay that will change your mind. It's challenging, fast, and most of all actually engaging (my problem with older turnbased games, felt like they were fighting and not me for real and slow. Here feels like you are fighting with friends. The banter during combat is great, kinda but smaller scale like FFXV banter during fights. The style is very good and blends right in. Ive played Persona 2,3
,3 portable, 4, 4 Golden and 5. Each game were best at some thing, like 2 with story, 4 with characters but 5 is the best one overall.

best ps4 game
Best rpg on the ps4 hands down. Not best of the persona series. Still a solid 10 worth the wait. Im just VERY upset they do not try and release a new persona game every few years. Instead they waste time on dancing and fighting games. They should give us another main game every 3 or so years not every 10. Still game is amazing buy or rent it right away .

Great JRPG
A fantastic JRPG whether you're a newcomer to the Persona series or a long-time fan. Tons of content, stylish gameplay and an awesome soundtrack. It took me 100 hours on the dot to complete without rushing much, fusing lots of personas and doing side stuff. The only negative I'd say is there hasn't been much incentive to go through it again unless you're a completionist or perhaps want to see different dialogue reactions, get new perks from different character social links, etc. Still, it's a great JRPG I'd recommend to anyone looking for something to sink their teeth into. Previous knowledge of the series isn't really needed at all, but I'd recommend the earlier ones too or the mainline 'Shin Megami Tensei' games (that of which Persona is a spin-off) if you're interested and don't mind different mechanics.

Amazing
I had never played a Persona game or a JRPG before and this game quickly cemented itself as one of my favorite games of all time. You can easily play for 100+ hours and not get bored and the story is very engrossing. Cannot reccomend more.
