Ryuji and Captain Kidd Turn the Tide of Battle in Persona 5 Tactica

The new character spotlight trailer for Persona 5 Tactica released by Atlus focuses on Ryuji Sakamoto, the Phantom Thief Skull. Ryuji is a courageous, but reckless young man with a strong sense of justice who likes to face against his opponents heads-on and fights for his friends. The video highlights his personality and shows off gameplay.

Ryuji is a powerful physical attacker that wields blunt weapons like pipes and uses a shotgun as his ranged weapon during battle. In the recent trailer shared by Atlus, Skull and Captain Kidd are able to use a new move called Brigantine Dash, a powerful area of effect attack that can hit several enemies in front of him and can turn the tide of battle.
