The release of Shin Megami Tensei IV: Apocalypse is drawing nearer and Atlus has lifted the lid on some details for the launch edition.
A metal emblem set will come in every pre-order and launch copy of Shin Megami Tensei IV: Apocalypse while supplies last. The three pins inside the set are metal and roughly .75″ in diameter each, and will have a high shine finish!
Overlapping the story of the original Shin Megami Tensei IV, the upcoming game focuses on a Hunter cadet protagonist who gets killed by one of the demons treating post-apocalyptic Tokyo as their personal playground. However, the mysterious god Dagda resurrects the protagonist in exchange for his fealty, and sets him on a perilous path that treads a fine line between peace and anarchy. Is Dagda simply an opportunistic lesser god or is he part of something much bigger?
You get to choose between peace or anarchy while being a pawn in the gods’ chess game. You’ll also get combat partners because let’s face it, hunting demons is dangerous. Alongside the standard three demons, players will be able to rely on one of seven partners to help win battles. But you’ll need to be on your guard because Tokyo is infested with a series record 450+ demons to fight, fuse, or recruit. The demons will have affinities for certain skills, so players can better plan the outcome of fusions.
Shin Megami Tensei IV: Apocalypse arrives on Nintendo 3DS systems in the Americas this summer, though no firm release date has yet to be revealed. Amazon is currently listing the release date as September 20th, 2016. The game will be available physically and digitally for $64.99 CAD.
