reaper Posted April 23, 2009 Report Share Posted April 23, 2009 Developer: Atlus Publisher: Atlus Series: Megami Tensei Platform: PlayStation 2 Release date: JP October 23, 2008, NA May 12, 2009 Genre: Action role-playing game Mode: Single-player Official Website A new threat to Japan's Capital calls for the return of its case-solving, tube-slinging Devil Summoner: Raidou Kuzunoha the 14th. When a woman walks into the Narumi Detective Agency and asks to find a man, Raidou's boss is reluctant to accept, but soon it's clear there's more to the case than it seems on the surface. It isn't long before Raidou is on the trail of crooked gamblers, masked ninja, and strange insects... a trail leading him inexorably to the mysterious King Abaddon. Set for release on May 12, the game follows up on the original 2006 Devil Summoner, where the featured conflict was Raidou Kuzunoha vs. the Soulless Army. This time out, Raidou will look to thwart King Abaddon's plans for a demon-infested Tokyo of the 1920s. Demons aren't all bad, though, as players will be able to negotiate with and win the assistance of more than 200 throughout the game, mixing and matching them to breed more powerful entities and commanding their actions in combat situations two at a time. If those demon dealings aren't enough enticement, every launch copy of the game will be individually numbered and come bundled with a free plush doll of the game's Raiho character. The game-and-goodie combo will sell for $39.99 when it launches May 12. Source Features: Massively upgraded battle system — Advancements to the battle system include a MAG balancing system, dodge and hide abilities, and the ability to command two demons in combat. Use the retooled Weapon Alchemy system to create new swords with unique special attacks.80 hours of classic dungeon crawling. Deeper demon integration — Demon negotiation returns with more than twice the number of demons to attempt to recruit to your side. Create more powerful demons through fusion and skill transfer. Control two demons in battle and choose from more tactical options. Phenomenal creative team — The rich environment of this Taisho-era Japan comes to life with the character designs of Kazuma Kaneko and the musical score of Shoji Meguro.
