Looking cool, Joker!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Well, all you lovely people, it finally happened. After literally years of pretending like it wasn\u2019t sure there would be an audience, Atlus has brought Persona 5 to the Switch. And though this belated port hasn\u2019t brought with it any major new upgrades or changes, we\u2019re pleased to report that Persona 5 Royal<\/a> is every bit as magnificent and memorable an experience as it\u2019s always been. If you\u2019re an RPG fan and somehow haven\u2019t yet gotten around to playing this game, you should pick it up as soon as possible.<\/p>\n

Persona 5 Royal has a plot that feels like a cross between Inception<\/strong> and a superhero story, placing you in the role of Joker, a quiet high school student who has become a victim of circumstance. While walking home from school one day, you witness a woman being assaulted by a man and intervene. The man is accidentally injured and sues you for damages, which results in you being given a criminal conviction, expelled from school, and sent into the city to attend Shujin Academy. Not long after you arrive at Shujin, you gain the ability to access \u201cThe Metaverse\u201d, an alternate plane of existence born out of people\u2019s cognition. Within the Metaverse are Palaces \u2014 bizarre dungeons based upon the twisted way that certain people in power view real locations and people. For example, the first Palace is a castle ruled by Kamoshida, a physically and sexually abusive volleyball coach who sees Shujin Academy and its students as things to use as he pleases.<\/p>\n
