Another entry in the series of action music-rhythm games that utilize the soundtrack from the main entries of the jRPG Persona series developed by Atlus.

Game Ratings for Persona 5: Dancing in Starlight Video Game.
The Game Fanatics: 8.3 / 10 by Joel Ramirez
Persona 5: Dancing in Starlight is the dance party I never knew I needed in my life. The soundtrack is incredible, the presentation is as cool as it was in Persona 5, and the characters are entertaining to watch during their performances. Although the story/Social Events do not really bring much as far as in depth character progression, I'll take what I can get if it means more time with the Phantom Thieves.
Reno Gazette-Journal: 7.5 / 10 by Jason Hidalgo
Persona 5 fans get a last surprise as their favorite characters return to hit the dance floor in “Persona 5: Dancing in Starlight.” It could use more content and it also doesn’t have a full-fledged story mode like “Persona 4: Dancing All Night.” At the same time, the mechanics are solid and the soundtrack sounds great as ever. Even if you saw this one coming, it’s still a fun romp for Persona fans who enjoy rhythm games and want to see their favorite Phantom Thieves hanging out with each other again.
Hardcore Gamer: 3.5 / 5 by Jacob Bukacek
For an odd spin-off to an RPG series, Persona 5: Dancing in Starlight is very well executed.
