About Persona 5 Strikers in brief
The game is a crossover between Koei Tecmo’s Dynasty Warriors franchise and Atlus’s 2016 role-playing game Persona 5. It follows Joker and the rest of the Phantom Thieves of Hearts as they investigate a series of mysterious events involving people across Japan. Players can only control Joker in the real world but are able to control any party member freely when exploring the story dungeons. The Confidant system from Persona 5 is absent. In its place are Requests, a form of side-quests, and the B. A. N. D. system, where increasing its level can grant players bonuses such as stat increases. All party members can obtain new moves, known as Master Arts, by controlling the characters manually and defeating enemies. If all active party members are knocked out in battle, the game ends. It was released in Japan in February 2020, with a worldwide release scheduled for February 2021. The ‘Third Eye’ also makes a return from Persona5, where it highlights enemies strength and interactive objects. It can be lowered by winning battles that are initiated with surprise attacks or by leaving the dungeon.
Unlike previous entries of the Persona series, leaving the dungeons does not progress time and there are generally no demerits in leaving the story dungeon. The game was released for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and Microsoft Windows. It is set six months after the events of the original Persona 5, and features elements from both franchises, such as the real-time action combat of the former with the turn-based Persona-battling aspect of the latter. The protagonist and Morgana return to Tokyo to spend their summer vacation together on a camping trip. To determine the camping preparations, they use a popular application called EMMA. While going to Shibuya to buy the necessary tools, they pass by a rising idol, Alice Hiiragi, who gave the protagonist a card requesting them to input ‘Wonderland’ into the EMMA app for her special event. Upon entering the keyword, however, he, Morgana and Ryuji are transported into a mysterious alternative version of Tokyo called a Jail, where they encounter the ruler called King.
