About Shin Megami Tensei V
When our protagonist’s path home is blocked by a gruesome murder scene in modern-day Tokyo, an unforeseen detour leaves him buried and unconscious. He wakes in a new Tokyo, a wasteland destroyed by the catastrophe now known as Da’at… but before the bloodthirsty demons can take his life, a rescuer appears, and the two join forces to become a tremendous entity neither human nor demon: a Nahobino.
The protagonist, armed with unexpected power, travels through Da’at, an intriguing region populated by mythological deities and demonic rulers who are always at odds for existence. In search of answers, the protagonist must build his own path in a war between light and darkness to determine the world’s destiny.
Features
- Uncover your position in the new world by unraveling an allusive narrative packed with tragic decisions, making sacrifices to preserve your principles as you chase light or crave darkness.
- Use the Press Turn Battle System to fight your way through a demon-infested wasteland, identifying opponent vulnerabilities so you may execute many actions in a row, but make one mistake and you’ll die.
- Turn dangerous opponents into worthy friends by negotiating with them, then fusing them together to create demons that are tailored to your playstyle.
- Explore the vast environment of post-apocalyptic Tokyo, which is completely recreated in breathtaking 3D using Unreal Engine 4, a first for the Shin Megami Tensei series’ mainline.
