Persona. [electronic resource]. by Sony Computer Entertainment.;
Game.Persona 5 is a game about the internal and external conflicts of a group of troubled high school students - the protagonist and a collection of compatriots he meets in the game's story - who live dual lives as Phantom Thieves. They have the typically ordinary day-to-day of a Tokyo high schooler - attending class, after school activities and part-time jobs. But they also undertake fantastical adventures by using otherworldly powers to enter the hearts of people. Their power comes from the Persona, the Jungian concept of the “self” the game's heroes realize that society forces people to wear masks to protect their inner vulnerabilities, and by literally ripping off their protective masks and confronting their inner selves do the heroes awaken their inner power, and use it to strive to help those in need. Ultimately, the group of Phantom Thieves seeks to change their day-to-day world to match their perception and see through the masks modern-day society wears.ESRB Content Rating: M, Mature, 17+ (Blood, drug reference, partial nudity, sexual themes, strong language, violence).Blu-ray disc compatible with Playstation 4 console ; HDTV 720p/1080i/1080p ; in game surround sound ; 1 player online play (paid subscription and broadband internet connection required) ; 20 GB storage required ; online play optional.
