The sale also covers games outside Persona. Metaphor: ReFantazio’s Atlus Brand 35th Digital Anniversary Edition is 60% off on PlayStation, Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance is half price, and Catherine: Full Body is 70% off. Atlus lists 32 products on its sale page, with prices and availability varying by platform and region. 2
Our opinion
This is a particularly strong sale for anyone who has somehow missed Persona 5 Royal or Persona 5 Strikers, with the latter’s 80% cut standing out as the clear headline deal. The platform split is the only real nuisance: shoppers should check the live store price and end date before buying, especially because Nintendo and PlayStation are not running identical promotions.
Atlus’ own catalogue page is the safest place to browse the full list, but the best value is obvious enough. If you want one stylish, enormous RPG, Persona 5 Royal is the straightforward pick; if you already own it, Persona 5 Strikers offers a very different action-focused follow-up at the deepest discount.
