Persona 5 Tactica is an excellent addition to the overall Persona 5 property. What at first looks like a cheerfully whimsical bonus spinoff ends up being something that adds to the core themes of the base game, and is impressive in the way it does that. It also backs up with some of the sharpest “fast tactics” play we’ve seen in the genre. I just wish the concept and theme were written better, and I honestly never thought I would say that of a Persona title.
Just like his Phantom Thieves, ATLUS isn't missing a beat and, against all odds, Persona 5 Tactica has proven to be a solid and enjoyable tactician. Despite P-Studio's inexperience with the aforementioned gaming genre, the combat system seemed functional and profound, also thanks to the numerous mechanics borrowed from the saga and expertly grafted onto the new formula. If you loved the atmosphere, the dynamics and above all the protagonists of the original, put aside any skepticism due to the change of look and let your heart be stolen once again by the amazing Phantom Thieves.

The Erina character is one of the best characters in all Persona history, and you get impregnated with the history. Is the perfect warm-up for a Persona fan waiting the Persona 3 release date.

A very entertaining game that I think all fans of the saga will like. Good gameplay, colorful graphics with a pleasant style, consistent story that leaves a good feeling

Persona 5 Tactica brings the Phantom Thieves back together for fans to enjoy in a strategy and role-playing game full of possibilities. A new opportunity to live adventures with Joker and his friends, this time leading a new revolution. On a negative note, it may fall short for those with a lot of experience in this type of games.
Persona 5 Tactica is a confident entry into Atlus’ growing catalogue of Persona 5 spin-offs, offering fans more time with the original game’s cast of lovable misfits. The turn-based tactical twist serves as a great vehicle to blend intelligent combat with a delicate story that often leaves you theorising what could come next, both in the narrative and Tactica’s enjoyable arenas. Even without the bustling streets of Tokyo to explore, Tactica summons the same emotional depth you’d expect from the series, with plenty of endearing comical moments, vibrant visual design and sparkling music accompaniment.
Persona 5 Tactica excels in terms of level design and fun quests, as well as solid gameplay. With that, it's a no brainer for fans of the series to purchase the game. We should note, however, that the story lacks depth and the social aspect. The game is also a lot more compact than other parts in the series, and while that is not necessarily a bad thing, it does feel a bit less complete than we are used to.
Persona 5 Tactica is a good game, but it is a game that's standing on the shoulders of giants – when the giant is the size of Satanael, you have a lot to live up to. Indeed, it’s very difficult to score this and not compare it to the other games in the series as a result. Tactica is good, but it’s not great, and while it is always nice to sink into that warm-bath feeling of hanging out with your fictional friends, it won’t be remembered as either a series high or the best spin-off the franchise has to offer.
Atlus has successfully translated the turn-based combat of its 2017 masterpiece into a competent tactical experience, though Persona 5 Tactica won't be heralded with the same praise. Consistently good during fights, customising your party and mastering its many stages is where the game is at its best. However, there's little to the title besides those skirmishes, and without any exploration or sense of character progression, this feels like the Phantom Thieves at the end of their tether. Joker and co have enjoyed a great run, but Persona 5 fatigue is well and truly beginning to set in.
Ce jeu est très mauvais. Très contrôles. Ne pas acheter pour le jeu vidéo. J'ai fait une mauvaise critique. Je donne 10 parce que numéro terrifiant.

I'd say this is a smart movement of ALTUS to pull something similiar to Mario+Rabbid which exclusively on Switch. However, while I quite vibing with this game. I found out that this game suffer the difficulty issue same as P5R. This game is way too easy with a lot of amenities and flashy skills, plus, this game remove of a lot unpredictability in the game, such as no breakable cover, 100% accuracy. This game is more like a puzzle RPG game than tactical RPG game if you ask me. The content here is also bit short compared to Mario+Rabbid since they are mostly battle with some dialogue and straightforward story. It's make me feel like a mile away from Mario+Rabbid in terms of gameplay and passionate. However, I think they are quite smart in terms of marketing. You can play it with various platforms and XBOX PASS. So if you are Persona 5 fans who want more additional official story with nice additional rosters, then why not just try it on PASS? However, if you need a challenge in this game, barely to none. I give this game between 6-7. Sort of passable for causal game, but fell short for a tactical RPG game. I rather recommend Mario+Rabbid over this one.

I love tactic games so I was excited for P5T... unfortunately though it's just lacking.
Combat feels just like Mario Rabbids Sparks of Hope only simplified with generic characters. Every Character in P5T has the same skills, only with a slightly different flavor. Theirs nothing that make them feel truly unique.
Combine that with an overly cartoonish way the game is designed, from the way characters act to the overall look and feel. The game feels like a Saturday morning cartoon trying to be Persona 5. It's too offbrand for me, yes Persona is anime but it's also grounded in a certain level of realism.

The dialog aggravated me early on. The game is dramatically basic. I was hoping for final fantasy tactics meets Persona. This is just a mario rabbids game with a persona skin and both games do not provide me with the kind of depth I would expect from a solid tactical turn based game. It's hard to see this as anything but a cash grab trying to surf on P5's success.
