listen. atlus is atlus. the dlc is annoying. the fact this rerelease needed to happen is annoying. but this game is absolutely fantastic. runs great on ps5, looks gorgeous, the vengeance storyline is MUCH better than what came with the original. gameplay is (dare i say) the best in the franchise. love love love adore adore adore

I played the original on the switch so I picked up this version on PS5. Still a great game. If you've never played a Megaten game think Pokemon but with devils and demons and a mind freak of a story. The package was great, the steel book is a beaut.

Another great and intriguing release from ATLUS with Shin Megami Tensei V

Reviewed in the United States on July 17, 2024

ATLUS is one of my favorite game companies. The Shin Megami Tensei (SMT) series is a huge reason for this. I was first introduced to the company when I played Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 3 on PS2 and I was blown away by the art style and intrigued by the darker themed story line. I then played SMT III on PS2 which was rather difficult but again I commended the chose your own adventure like narrative to it. When SMT III came on Switch I did not hesitate to play it. I loved the various story line threads and all of the lore between the demons and gods.

When I found out they were doing a new installment of this game that also had a new storyline I was delighted as even just a PS5 remaster of the Switch game to PS5 would have been welcome. The game graphics remastering is excellent and makes the original Switch release look like a game boy game practically. The new story line is also fantastic. I thought it would simply be a couple more bosses and a new ending or two, but there is a good story with it that involves the students more in a way the original storyline was somewhat lacking. There are also several more demons/gods to play with and the newly added Qadištu are sheik, sexy and each has there own personality. The turn based combat remains enjoyable and there are new challenges presented for those looking for more aspects than story.

This release is excellent and is a must for any ATLUS fan and JRPG fan. The mature story line and various threads allow the game to extend and be interesting for those who do not play RGPs frequently. SMT V caters to the casual and extreme gamers with so many options and reasons to play multiple playthroughs. With the gaming industry trending to more western themed RPGs or Call of Duty sequels, releases like this have to be all the more treasured.

My last attempt to like this series, and it succeeded. This game blows its predecessors out of the water, putting aside the sheer amount of content due to limitations between the series The story alone is significantly better which is important to me. I could never get into nocturne and both times I beat it felt like a chore more than a fun experience, if you haven't played any of this games predecessors then just start with this game you won't be missing anything.

A clear cut grade A game.

Much like the original with more content and explanation to the story. The graphics look amazing for this port/remaster of a Switch game. The soundtrack to this is just cool to hear from hard rock to ethereal sounds to give the world some life even though its adesert/apocalypse of Tokyo.

Story 7.9/10
Ost 8.5/10
Gameplay 8.7/10

My first foray into the series.

While this is purchased due to my love of the Persona series (which I got into via Persona 5 when it came out on ps4) I’m glad I got it. Never played the original or any of the other SMT games before and saw all the extras on this version with the second story, quality of life/gameplay for other systems that weren’t the switch I just took a chance on it. I’m not super far into it yet but it’s quite good and if you’ve never played a SMT game, this is a great start.
