Persona-likes have certainly become a trend in the world of gaming, but the unique approach and familiar visual style of Mato Anomalies could help it rise above the rest. One part Sherlock Holmes and one part Persona 5, it’s set in a neo-futuristic Old Shangai and follows a private detective named Doe as he investigates the emergence of spatial anomalies that link to demon-filled pocket dimensions. And, after he looks into an unusual occurrence at the city’s docks, he meets Gram, a swordsman with a bandaged face and ragged samurai outfit. From there, these dual protagonists become a very different kind of Holmes and Watson.
