Shin Megami Tensei 4 is getting closer to a Japan release. Localize, it, Atlus. Localize it!

Shin Megami Tensei 4 is getting closer to a Japan release. Localize, it, Atlus. Localize it!

Shin Megami Tensei 4 is just around the corner for Japanese 3DS owners. While the Japanese version of the game is scheduled for release on May 23, we still have yet to hear anything from Atlus on a localization for the first mainline SMT title in ten years.

The trailer above covers the story and many of the game’s features, including demon summoning and fusion as well as the familiar combat system.

Is that a guy with a Demonica from Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey at the 3:29 mark? Aw yeah.

As a long-time Megaten fan, I was pensive about Shin Megami Tensei 4 because of the chance in art style and the lack of random battles, but it’s shaping up to more than make up for those familiar staples of the series. If only we had a localization announcement and that mega-swag 3DS XL made its way to Europe and North America. One can dream, right?
