Persona 5 Royal Steelbook Pre-order Bonuses
Priced at $59.99, this version comes with the game, a Steelbook case, and a downloadable dynamic PS4 theme. When it comes to pre-order bonuses, there is no universal one, but separate retailers are throwing in something different for those that pre-order from them.
Persona 5 Royal Digital Editions
The digital version of the game includes the dynamic PS4 theme as well, but there are also various editions, some of which come with their own extras. They are each priced differently as a result.
See Standard Edition - $59. 99 - PS4 Dynamic Theme See Deluxe Edition - $69. 99 - Katsumi Costume Bundle (4 sets of cosmetic items for Kasumi) See Ultimate Edition - $99. 99 - Persona 5 Royal DLC Pack (Kasumi Costume Bundle, Battle Bundle, and Persona Bundle)
Persona 5 Royal: Phantom Thieves Edition
This highly coveted version has plenty of enticing physical extras but is unfortunately sold out everywhere. There is one item, in particular, that is a huge bonus for Joker fans. The Phantom Thieves edition includes:
Steelbook Case and Game Art Book Soundtrack Collector’s Box Joker Mask with Stand PS4 Dynamic Theme
While Persona 5 Royal is a PlayStation 4 exclusive, there are plenty of people who would love to see it ported to another console. Many suspected the title would make it to the Switch when something called Persona 5 S was teased a while back, but it turned out to be an entirely new game, Persona 5 Scramble. This hasn’t deterred fans who are still holding out hope that it makes its way to the Nintendo console at some point in the future. There is a good reason for them to keep it up too, as developer Atlus recently stated that a Persona 5 Royal port is possible if fans continue to ask for it.
Those who played the original will find a lot of new content to explore. Aside from the new Phantom Thief, Kasumi, there are also multiple endings, an extra school term, which will give the story more room to breathe and expand, and a whole lot more. There is even DLC that features past protagonists from Persona 3 and 4.
Persona 5 Royal will release in North America on March 31 for the PS4.
