Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance is a new version of the role-playing video game released by Atlus in 2021, and its upcoming launch has all the fans of the series excited. The number of improvements that Vengeance makes to the original Shin Megami Tensei V in terms of story, gameplay, and performance contribute to making the purchase of the game worth it even for those who played the original. Fighting demons from other realms in a post-apocalyptic and devastated Tokyo city was never as exciting as in Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance as the game gives you more options than ever thanks to the introduction of a new faction. Enhanced graphics, new mechanics, and the possibility of playing the game on multiple platforms rather than launching it as a Nintendo Switch exclusive will take the new game much further than its predecessor.

Better than ever

The original Shin Megami Tensei V was deemed as a missed opportunity by many fans of the series but Vengeance rises as an apology of shorts that redeems the developer and captivates those fans of JRPG games looking for something different to the Persona series.

Vengeance maintains the difficulty level of previous installments in the series but it also removes all the weak points of the original and expands the content to make the game a true jewel of the genre.

Atlus has released a new Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance video that reveals plenty of gameplay footage focused on the new elements and the exciting turn-based combat system. You can watch it right below.
