There are three of us on team who have now played the PC version, and two of us had no problems at all, while one had a crash on a cutscene that lost a day's progress. And indeed, the reason this review is later than others is because our original reviewer Brendy (RPS in peace) encountered significant performance problems with it, to the extent that they stopped him from playing. Though PC players got to sample the delights of Persona 4 Golden last year, we're still waiting for Persona 5 to break free from its console bonds, skipping us straight onto its new spin-off. Each Palace was, essentially, a dungeon run where the dungeon was made of obvious metaphor. The Phantom Thieves Of Hearts, as the gang became known, reformed these criminals by stealing a totemic treasure from the subject's Palace. They did this while spending their free time fighting through the id-castles of various perverts terrorising sections of Tokyo. It was a winning combination of complex turn-based combat and a Breakfast Club-esque gang of teens coming together and learning to love/respect each other. Persona 5 was (rightly) a darling when it came to the PlayStation 4 a few years back. Such is the summer ahead of the teen codenamed Joker, the returning protagonist of Persona 5 Strikers.

But in fairness, if we'd all been part of a secret supernatural crime-fighting team - who did battles with often grotesque monsters in peoples' subconsciouses, no less - and had reformed for one last job involving an undercover cop, a super-advanced AI, and our old pal the talking cat, I'd probably have way more interest.

This spin-off from the stylish JRPG Persona 5 mixes complex tactics with Musou-style hacking and slashing, and is a bit less stylish as a result.ДЄs an adult, I can think of no more acute version of hell than coming back from uni and going on a summer road trip with the people I'd known at secondary school.
