The JRPG series initially began as a spin-off of developer and publisher ATLUS’ bigger franchise Megami Tensei. It started from Revelations: Persona, first released in 1996, and has Persona 5 Royal as its latest main game release in 2019. Despite only having 5 main releases, the series has received multiple “enhanced” versions, remakes, and spin-offs. Persona 5 recently received its hack-and-slash spin-off game titled Persona 5 Strikers in 2020. Strikers released for PC and Nintendo Switch, so this isn’t the series’ first sortie onto the handheld.
