Atlus of Japan struck suddenly with the reveal of Shin Megami Tensei IV Final for Nintendo 3DS via Famitsu. It’s due for release in Japan on February 10, 2016. Contrary to what the subtitle and the name of the game might suggest, this isn’t meant to be an expanded release (in the same vein of Devil Survivor 2: Record Breaker) – this is a new game set in the same world that Shin Megami Tensei IV took place in. There will be new characters, and perhaps some returning faces too.
While Persona 5 seems to have red as a recurring theme color (as do the Persona games in general) it seems that SMT IV Final is following in its stead by making liberal use of the color green. I personally like the look of mixing black and green…
There’s a preview site up right now, but nothing really in the way of content is on it. We can expect more this coming Sunday at 7PM (Japan time) when a Niconico stream featuring a more detailed reveal of the game goes live.
