Ryuji theme plus avatar set – know your Persona
The Ryuji theme plus avatar set features Ryuji Sakamoto, one of the heroes from the game. Persona 5 is the fifth instalment of the popular Shin Megami Tensei spin-off that blends Jungian psychology, student life and dungeon crawling into one satisfying combination. The earlier games consisted of first-person corridors and random battles, but the series really took off around the world when Persona 3 was released and introduced lots of innovative new mechanics. Today, Persona games are praised for their contemporary presentation, satisfying elemental weakness system, and tiered dungeons made up of dozens of floors that create a satisfying difficulty curve that is never a cakewalk or an impossible task.
Ryuji theme plus avatar set – star of a celebrated series
Ryuji would be pleased to be starring in a game like this. Persona 3 and 4 have seen a number of interesting re-releases and spin-offs, most notably Persona 3 FES – an updated version of the original that changes certain events and adds a new side-story – and Persona 4 Golden – the Vita game that is packed with new content and novel gameplay additions such as the Voice (or Vox Populi) mechanic and the SOS button. And that’s before we even get to the dancing games, fighting games and animations that have come from these games.
All signs point towards Persona 5 being another success, but the release has been troubled with numerous delays, and people in Europe will have to wait until April next year to get their hands on the game. Still, the Ryuji theme plus avatar set is a nice bonus that fans can enjoy whilst they wait.
