Persona 5 – PlayStation 3 Standard Edition

Description

Persona 5 marks the return of the award-winning franchise on home consoles
since the PS2 generation, and is the first numbered Persona game in over eight
years! With fast-paced Japanese role-playing game mechanics, exciting action
sequences, vibrantly stylized characters, enemies, and environments, and
elegant anime-style cut-scenes, Persona 5 is unlike any of its predecessors!
Persona 5 is a game about the internal and external conflicts of a group of
troubled high school students – the protagonist and a collection of
compatriots he meets in the game’s story – who live dual lives as Phantom
Thieves. They have the typically ordinary day-to-day of a Tokyo high schooler
– attending class, after school activities and part-time jobs. But they also
undertake fantastical adventures by using otherworldly powers to enter the
hearts of people. Their power comes from the Persona, the Jungian concept of
the “self;” the game’s heroes realize that society forces people to wear masks
to protect their inner vulnerabilities, and by literally ripping off their
protective mask and confronting their inner selves do the heroes awaken their
inner power, and use it to strive to help those in need. Ultimately, the group
of Phantom Thieves seeks to change their day-to-day world to match their
perception and see through the masks modern-day society wears. Long-time
Persona series director Katsura Hashino is overseeing the project, while
legendary character designer Shigenori Soejima is working closely to create
character designs that ooze rebellious style and attitude. The game will also
be backed with a soundtrack featuring the fresh sounds of acid jazz composed
by the gifted Shoji Meguro. This dream team will bring both depth and style
into the mix.
