An active battle system keeps players on alert during battle, because indecision could mean your own demise.

With striking artwork by Akira Toriyama, well known for Dragon Ball A-Z and now into Super, and an active turn-based system reminiscent of the Final Fantasy series’ ATB mechanics, longtime fans have been rewarded for their patience with a main series title with one of the best JRPGs in recent memory. This is the latest installment of the Dragon Quest series and the first return back to home consoles since Dragon Quest VIII. Spend your days as an ordinary high school student. Gather your team and explore the dark realm of the Metaverse.

Summon unique personas for each character that can destroy your enemies with powerful abilities.

Travel through high school and around the city as you build connection, uncover the deeper meanings behind the corruption within the Metaverse, and even make new friends.

Fight for your life against the manifestations of the darkness of humanity that linger in the Metaverse.

But it’s not all fun and games, sometimes you actually have to talk to people. As the protagonist Joker, you’ll mingle with friends in high school, explore the city, and at night, dive into the Metaverse to utilize the power of your personas do to battle with the lingering darkness of humanity. Easily one of the best games of this console generation, JRPG or otherwise, the latest installment into the Persona series breathes new life into the dying world of turn-based RPGs.
