Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance — What to Expect

The highly acclaimed SMT franchise returns with its latest installment, Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance. This highly anticipated game serves as a vast reimagining of SMT 5, released in 2021. Atlus has revealed numerous details about the game, including its release date, platforms, trailers, and more. Here is everything you need to know.

The turn-based community is once again satisfied with the release of Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance by Atlus, a new JRPG following their previous title, Persona 3 Reload. With the previous year’s success of Baldur’s Gate 3, another turn-based game, expectations are high for SMT 5 Vengeance to dominate in a similar fashion.

Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance Release Date and Platforms

The official launch date for Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance has been moved up by a week to June 14, 2024, as announced by Atlus. The original release date was scheduled for June 21.

SMT 5 Vengeance Platforms

Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance can be played on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and PC, making it more accessible to players compared to its predecessors, SMT 3: Nocturne and SMT 4, which were only available on one platform each.

Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance Story

In contrast to other SMT games, Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance offers two distinct story paths that diverge in varying directions. One of these paths follows the original setting and story of SMT 5, known as “Canon of Creation,” while the other introduces a brand-new path, titled “Canon of Vengeance.”

The focus of the new storyline is on the fallen who seek revenge against the gods by joining forces with the Qaditsu, a coalition of demons. Despite this, the protagonist is a high school student who is unexpectedly pulled into the chaos when he collapses on his way home from class.

As the protagonist awakens in a post-apocalyptic Tokyo, now renamed Da’at, he finds himself surrounded by ferocious demons from hell. However, before these demons can end his life, a mysterious savior arrives and joins forces with him, transforming them into a Nahobino, a formidable being.

You now have the responsibility of managing your newly acquired abilities and forging your own destiny in the ongoing battle between angels and demons.

Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance Gameplay

Just like its predecessors, Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance features a turn-based combat system. In addition to this, SMT 5 Vengeance introduces a new ultimate move system that allows players to unleash devastating finishing moves. These moves can either guarantee critical hits and deal significant damage, or boost the stats of the entire team.

In Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance, the emphasis is also placed on the exploration aspect of the game, where players can frequently come across valuable items simply by exploring. Additionally, like Baldur’s Gate 3, Vengeance offers players the option to manually save the game at any moment, providing the freedom to explore seamlessly.
