A reissue packed with content
The excellent numbers of Shin Megami Tensei 5: Vengeance were also confirmed by the latest sales ranking in the United Kingdom which sees this re-release in first place . Of course, we are not in a period particularly rich in releases, but it must still be said that Atlus’ JRPG has managed to establish itself on evergreen games and for a mass audience such as EA Sports FC 24 and Paper Mario The Millennium Portal.
For those who don’t know it, Shin Mengami Tensei 5: Vengeance is a Japanese role-playing game with turn-based combat in which we can recruit a large number of demons who will fight alongside us, while we explore a post-apocalyptic world against the backdrop of a conflict between deities and demons. Compared to the original 2021 version, Vengeance introduces a new alternative story, several changes to combat and gameplay, new demons to recruit and areas to explore, dramatically increasing the already excellent longevity offered by the game.
