Koei Tecmo and Omega Force are well-known for that high-octane one-versus-100 slash-em-up gameplay, namely through Dynasty Warriors, and brought that energy to an array of popular games and anime franchises such as The Legend of Zelda, Fire Emblem, and One Piece. But what makes Persona 5 Strikers so different is its dedication to the source material and the RPG elements&#8211;both in narrative and gameplay&#8211;that are key to Persona&#8217;s identity.

I had a chance to talk with producer Daisuke Kanada from Atlus and director Kazutoshi Sekiguchi from Koei Tecmo to dig deeper into how the two teams were able to pull it off. Everything from incorporating Persona 5&#8217;s RPG combat mechanics to the new characters and narrative themes was on the table, and they even hint that there might be more in store between the two studios.This interview was conducted via&#8230;
