Persona 5 Tactica is an SRPG that shines with adorable art, excellent music, and dazzling creativities. However, somewhat easy gameplay and shallow strategic depth fail to provide players with the engaging challenge they might be seeking. It could be a great experience for the fans of the Phantom Thieves but may not be as appealing to those of the SRPG genre.
