Too much dialogue sometimes. Felt like a visual novel. Still good, but pacing issues.

It's really good but requires a HUGE time commitment. Not for everyone.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the main differences between Persona 5 Royal and the original Persona 5?

Persona 5 Royal is an enhanced version of Persona 5, adding a new playable character (Kasumi Yoshizawa), an entire third semester of story content, a new palace, new confidants (Councillor and Faith arcana), new areas to explore (Kichijoji), new battle mechanics (Showtime attacks, grappling hook), Mementos changes, quality-of-life improvements, and significant graphical and audio enhancements.

How do I unlock the new third semester content and the true ending in Persona 5 Royal?

To access the third semester and the true ending, you must max out the Councillor (Dr. Maruki) confidant to Rank 9 by November 18th. Additionally, it's highly recommended to max out the Faith (Kasumi Yoshizawa) confidant and the Justice (Goro Akechi) confidant, though only Maruki is strictly mandatory for the third semester itself. Maxing Faith and Justice are crucial for their respective story elements and the most complete true ending experience.

Can I transfer my save data from the original Persona 5 to Persona 5 Royal?

No, save data from the original Persona 5 cannot be transferred to Persona 5 Royal. Royal is treated as a separate game, and you will need to start a new game from scratch. However, if you have a save file from Persona 5, you might receive some minor bonuses in Royal, such as extra items or yen, depending on your progress in the original game.

What are some tips for effective time management in Persona 5 Royal?

Effective time management is key. Prioritize confidants, especially those required for the true ending (Maruki, Kasumi, Akechi). Make sure to read books, watch DVDs, play video games, and work part-time jobs during downtime to boost your social stats. Plan your palace infiltration efficiently; try to complete palaces in as few days as possible to maximize free time. Also, consider using the new Thieves Den and My Palace features to relax and track progress.

Does Persona 5 Royal have a New Game+ mode? What carries over?

Yes, Persona 5 Royal features a robust New Game+ mode. Upon starting a New Game+, the following typically carries over: your social stats (Knowledge, Guts, Proficiency, Kindness, Charm), money, Persona Compendium completion, equipment, skill cards, play log (e.g., fishing points, game scores), and some key items related to confidant maxing. This allows you to experience the story again with a significant head start.
