As you know, Persona 5 Royal, the renewed and expanded version of Persona 5, will get PC, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S and Switch versions in October. For players who have not played until today, it is time to meet, and for those who have played the PS4 version, it is time to promote to the next generation. However, this promotion issue may be a little annoying, because those who want to play on PS4 and give the PS5 version a chance will have to buy the game again.
One of the ResetEra users saw such information in the frequently asked questions section of the Persona 5 Royal;s Japan site. The question asks “If I have purchased the PS4 version of the Persona 5 Royal, will I be able to upgrade it to the PS5 version?”, while the answer is “Unfortunately, we do not have a product (must be referring to the upgrade pack, etc.) for those who have purchased the PS4 version of the Persona 5 Royal.”
To be honest, asking someone who has already paid for the same game (or even bought the same game 2 times) to be asked for full game money again (especially considering the conditions of our country) is a policy that I cannot understand very much. Let’s see how this will be reflected in the number of PS5 players.
