About
Suikoden V, like its predecessors, features unparalleled in-depth gameplay, a riveting storyline as well as the series' trademark 108 Stars of Destiny.
What players say
A dense, slow-building political RPG whose novel-like story of court intrigue is widely praised in Japan as one that hasn't aged, paying off enormously once it gets going. Held back by frequent loading but considered a late-series high point.
