Following the launch of Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance, Atlus has begun a new Daily Demon video series introducing this entry’s new creatures. The seventy-first video highlights Naamah, a demon who debuted in this entry.
In this new version of the turn-based RPG, players will be presented with two routes when starting the game. The original Shin Megami Tensei V story route, Canon of Creation, will be selectable alongside the new Canon of Vengeance route, “a dramatic tale of revenge by the fallen.” The plot here will be roughly the same as Canon of Creation before diverging significantly in the latter half with an entirely new outcome.
In the new storyline, players will meet the new character Yoko Hiromine, a magic wielder who stands by the protagonist on the frontlines. Other new characters are the Qadištu, four female demons at the center of this tale of revenge by the oppressed. The leader, Lilith, calls the protagonist the Key of Resurrection.
Additional gameplay enhancements include expanded field exploration, new demon interactions, and more. Demon God Dagda from Shin Megami Tensei IV Apocalypse and the demon Goddess Konohanasakuya, newly illustrated by character designer Masayuki Doi, will be featured as DLC demons on the same day as the launch. They will be available separately for purchase and included with the Digital Deluxe Edition.
Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance is now available on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Windows and Steam.
