While many details of the upcoming Persona 5 Royal, more light is being shed on this enhanced version of the beloved RPG. Fans who?ve already played Persona 5 may find plenty of reason to return to Tokyo, as the newly-added third semester appears to offer even more content than what was introduced in Persona 4 Golden. That?s in addition to a whole soundtrack?s worth of new music tracks and a more streamlined gameplay experience.
That?s just one of the many pieces of information given in a new Famitsu interview with director Daiki Itoh and producer Kazushi Wada. With regards to the third semester, which wasn?t part of the original Persona 5, the pair said they expect this new content to ?go beyond the expectations? of those who played Persona 4 Golden, which wasn?t stingy with its content, either.
One of the biggest additions to Persona 5 Royal is Kasumi, a brand new party member. While she?s portrayed as being against the Phantom Thieves, she is clearly shown to join them at some point in the story, and a ?different side? to her is teased. While her story is still wrapped in mystery, Itoh and Wada want her to fit organically into the story. We also know that a new confidant, Maruki, will be introduced to the story, though the addition of even more confidants was teased.
