UPDATED: Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance NOT coming to Game Pass

UPDATE: In another update, verified era user, Salromano has confirmed with Atlus that the GAME PASS appearance on the trailer was a template error. It seems Shin Megami Tensei V is not (yet) coming to Xbox Game Pass. See also Wario64’s tweet below.

In a Slipknot featuring instagram reel it seems like Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance is coming to Xbox Game Pass.

*Updated: The Instagram Reel in question has now been deleted by Atlus West

Shin Megami Tensei V Game Pass

In an Instagram reel on atlus_west’s Instagram page a collab between Slipknot the band and the developer has seemingly linked that Shin Megami Tensei V is coming to Game Pass. Official artwork running along the bottom of the Instagram reel lists Nintendo Switch, PS4, PS5, Xbox, Windows, Steam, and… Game Pass!

Shin Megami Tensei V Game Pass

The Xbox store lists the title as:

Embark on this definitive version of the critically acclaimed Shin Megami Tensei V, massively expanded with a brand-new storyline featuring new locations, demons, and choices to make that will dictate the fate of all existence. As a special pre-order bonus, receive two Sacred Treasure sets that will aid you during your journey through Da’at.

Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance consists of two complete story paths: experience a brand-new route, the “Canon of Vengeance” – a dramatic tale of revenge by the fallen, centered around new characters and an enigmatic cohort of demons, the Qadištu, who plot their own dark designs apart from the war of those who fight to maintain order and those who seek to defy it. Or explore the original story told in Shin Megami Tensei V, the “Canon of Creation” – an eternal conflict between angels and demons, in which the protagonist fights for the world’s fate. When a grisly murder scene in modern-day Tokyo blocks our protagonist’s walk home, an unplanned detour leaves him buried and unconscious. He awakens in a new Tokyo, a wasteland ravaged by apocalypse now called Da’at… but before bloodthirsty demons can claim his life, a savior emerges, and the two of them unite to become a mighty being, neither human nor demon: a Nahobino. With newfound power, the protagonist ventures through Da’at, an enigmatic realm filled with mythical deities and demonic tyrants in constant conflict for survival. Searching for answers, the protagonist must forge his own path in a battle between angels and demons to dictate the fate of the world.

KEY FEATURES The Definitive Version of Shin Megami Tensei V Fully evolved with stunning visuals for modern consoles, the dark lore, unnerving atmosphere, and beautiful and monstrous demons are back and better than ever. Massively expanded with new areas, demons, and music, Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance features more accessible gameplay, an improved battle system, new demon experiences, and greater field exploration.

A Tale of Vengeance or Creation Which path will you choose? Experience a brand-new tale of revenge by the fallen or the original story of Shin Megami Tensei V, both filled with conflicting and tragic choices, forcing you to confront which ideologies you are willing to fight for. As order and chaos crumble around you, forge your own path to dictate the fate of humanity.

Explore a Post-Apocalyptic World Battle through a decimated Tokyo, reduced to an expansive wasteland and overrun by mythical demons. Roam across wide, open areas and explore new locations for life-saving items or encounter hundreds of familiar demons and dozens of new ones to battle or befriend as allies.

  1. Oh that will make things very easy to choose.

  2. Dang, that could be huge. It will also save me some cash as I can buy P3R then and wait for Fantasio to buy Shin V.

  3. I’m sure it’ll be added to Game Pass in some months or a year

  4. Thus the template already being made
