Well Played
P4G remains a classic RPG with top quality mechanics
Those coming across from Persona 5 will discover an equally good time
No technical issues in the port to a new platform
Visuals have a little added pop at higher resolutions
Some minor blurred visuals remain from the DNA of the PS Vita design
No major additional features, though they weren?t needed

Nintendoros
An excellent version for the first time in our language.
A modern classic of Japanese role-playing games.
A must for Persona fans.
It offers nothing new except Spanish localization.
You can see some seams as this is a PS Vita game.

Vandal
A modern classic, hilarious as the first day.
The story, the characters and a practically round soundtrack.
Finally, with texts in Spanish.
It is compliant as a remaster, but could improve some graphical aspects.
The simplicity of the dungeons is the worst thing that has aged in its gameplay.

An engaging cast of characters, good range of side content, and deep combat strategy

Well-written characters and an excellent script with twists and turns.
An excellent JRPG returns to the front of the stage as a remaster, with its most golden version.
Those who have dealt with Persona 4 Golden on PS Vita will not find any new content in this version.
Motion blur tires some parts of the title.
