Persona 5 Tactics Game
In Persona 5 Tactica, players engage in tactical role-playing, controlling a team of up to three characters on a grid map filled with enemy units. Turn-based encounters occur directly with these units. The team consists of members of the Phantom Thieves of Hearts and Erina, the leader of the Rebel Legion. Characters can hide on the grid to reduce or prevent damage. Players can approach enemies for close range attacks or select actions from the command menu.
Using the “Gun” option allows for ranged attacks that may target multiple nearby enemies. The Phantom Thieves can summon personas in battle and consume skill points (SP) to use various skills. Skills have elemental affinities that affect enemy movement. Knocking down an enemy will grant you an extra turn. When surrounded by friendly forces in a triangle formation, players can trigger the “Triple Threat” skill to cause a large amount of damage to enemies within the triangle.
Players can collect additional characters and equip them as sub-characters, providing additional skills. These characters are obtained through combat rewards or through fusion. The game’s story unfolds through battles on a map representing three kingdoms, inspired by real-world historical revolutions.
