The Persona video games being in regards to the struggles and experiences of youngsters is cool and all, however what if the sequence forged 4 aged ladies dwelling in a Miami home share as a substitute? That is the urgent query builders Joey Pagano and Chris Lindgren have got down to reply of their upcoming parody sport The Golden Ladies Take Manhattan DX.
“What began as a joke has shortly spiralled right into a playground of concepts meant to discover simply how a lot we are able to push our expertise and retain our sanity with our personal model of humour,” an introduction on Pagano’s developer web site (opens in new tab) reads. “Merely put, that is Persona 5’s gameplay changed with the context of The Golden Ladies. There is no such thing as a cause for why we used that coat of paint apart from ‘how far can we take this joke.'”

It seems just like the challenge has been within the works for a couple of years, with the positioning touting a playable demo arriving in the summertime… of 2021. It would not seem to have ever come out. However because of a trailer that went stay over on The Golden Ladies Take Manhattan DX Twitter web page over the weekend, that is my first time (and I think about many others) seeing simply what the hell that is.
Pagano’s web site calls it a Persona 5 parody particularly, however there’s an terrible lot of Persona 3 and Persona 4 inspiration working by means of it too. Every woman has their traditional aspect portrait icon, and the battle menus and overworld really feel rather a lot nearer to the old-school entries. There are some distinctly un-Persona issues featured although, like Souls-style dodge rolling. I am undecided why it is there, however I am right here for it.
It is a top-tier shitpost, one I can not wait to check out when it releases free of charge Vacation 2023.
