In case you’re unfamiliar, Shin Megami Tensei V is an upcoming JRPG set in an alternate version of Tokyo that’s overrun by demons. The game features turn-based RPG combat with a Demon collection and fusion system. Its core gameplay should feel right at home for Persona fans; after all, Persona is a spin-off of the Shin Megami Tensei series.

The game’s premise is described as:F

“When a grisly murder scene in modern-day Tokyo blocks our protagonist’s walk home, an unplanned detour leaves him buried and unconscious.

He awakens in a new Tokyo, a wasteland ravaged by apocalypse now called Da’at… but before bloodthirsty demons can claim his life, a savior emerges, and they unite to become a mighty being neither human nor demon: a Nahobino.

With newfound power, the protagonist ventures through Da’at, an enigmatic realm filled with mythicaldeities and demonic tyrants in constant conflict for survival. Searching for answers, the protagonist must forge his own path in a battle between light and dark to dictate the fate of the world.”
