Summary
Atlushas been having a golden era at the moment, with banger title after banger title. We’ve had the likes ofMetaphor Re:Fantazio,Persona 3 Reload, andLike A Dragon: Infinite Wealthover the past year, and that’s not even counting smaller titles likeUnicorn Overlord. It’s the perfect time for Sega and Atlus to release something a little more niche, and Devil Summoner is filling that gap.
Devil Summoner Is Finally Making a Comeback
Announced during today’s Nintendo Direct, Atlus has revealed that Devil Summoner: Raidou Kuzunoha Vs. The Soulless Army is getting a much-needed remaster called Raidou Kuzunoha Remastered: Mystery of the Soulless Army, and it’s arriving very soon. Devil Summoner fans will be able to revisit the game on June 19 later this summer.
If you’re not a fan of Nintendo Switch, you don’t have to fear, as it has also been confirmed that the game will be coming to other platforms at launch too. Raidou Kuzunoha Remastered: Mystery of the Soulless Army will be releasing on Xbox Series X, PC, PS5, and even PS4, so plenty of places to grab it if you’re not thrilled with the idea of playing it on Switch.
If this is the first time you’ve heard about Devil Summoner, then allow me to fill you in. It’s essentially an offshoot of the Shin Megami Tensei series, just like the Persona series, though it hasn’t managed to gain as much traction In the West as its more popular cousins. This particular game stars Raidou Kuzunoha XIV, as he solves crimes with the help of devils that he can summon. Kind of in the name really.
Elsewhere in the Nintendo Direct, we also gotthe announcement of a new Tomodachi Life, with the last one releasing over a decade ago. We also sawthe announcement of a new Rhythmn Heaven game, though it’s still a ways off, as well asnew footage for Pokemon Legends: Z-AandMetroid Prime 4: Beyond. Plenty of stuff to be excited about, but maybespare a thought for any Silksong fans in your life.
