Atlus Releases Details on DLC and more for Shin Megami Tensei IV: Apocalypse

As someone who’s an avid fan of the Shin Megami Tensei series it’s hard to pass up on great news from the team at Atlus when it comes to the franchise. You should see my Nintendo 3DS. I still play the past game like a crazy mad-man who’s looking for his next demon. Trust me when I’ve put in 100+ hours into the game. Well now we’re here with some great news!

What is it you ask? Well Atlus is happy to announce all the details on the DLC that will release for Shin Megami Tensei IV: Apocalypse. Instead of babbling on about this game here is all the information direct from the press release since it’s going to be a lot to take in. Oh, before you go on and read the details on the DLC you can enjoy the new trailer as well.

The plot of Shin Megami Tensei IV: Apocalypse overlaps with Shin Megami Tensei IV (and features some familiar characters)but no previous experience with the original is required! The game features:
  • Divine Intrigue – Choose between peace or anarchy while being a pawn in the gods’ chess game.
  • Combat Partners – Hunting demons is dangerous, so count on some backup! Alongside the standard three demons, players will be able to rely on one of seven partners to help win battles.
  • Oodles of Demons – Be on your guard because Tokyo is infested with a series record 450+ demons to fight, fuse, or recruit.
  • Revamped Demon Fusion – Demons will have affinities for certain skills, so players can better plan the outcome of fusions.
  • Classic SMT Combat – Prospective Hunters will exploit weaknesses, boost attributes, and unlock skill bonuses with the returning Press Turn and Smirking systems.
Oh, and we have information about a ton of DLC we’ll be releasing for the game. From vanity items to new quests, the SMTIV: A DLC offers content that will enrich the demon hunting experience. Take a look at the details below!
