The Persona video games being in regards to the struggles and experiences of youngsters is cool and all, however what if the collection forged 4 aged girls 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 recreation The Golden Women Take Manhattan DX.
“What began as a joke has rapidly 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 website (opens in new tab) reads. “Merely put, that is Persona 5’s gameplay changed with the context of The Golden Women. There isn’t any motive for why we used that coat of paint apart from ‘how far can we take this joke.'”

It seems to be just like the venture has been within the works for a couple of years, with the positioning touting a playable demo arriving in the summertime… of 2021. It does not seem to have ever come out. However because of a trailer that went stay over on The Golden Women 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 operating by way of it too. Every lady has their traditional aspect portrait icon, and the battle menus and overworld really feel so much nearer to the old-school entries. There are some distinctly un-Persona issues featured although, like Souls-style dodge rolling. I am unsure why it is there, however I am right here for it.
It is a top-tier shitpost, one I am unable to wait to check out when it releases free of charge Vacation 2023.
