Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance

Our analysis

A stellar enhanced re-release that adds a full-length alternate Canon of Vengeance storyline centered on the new character Yoko, alongside quality-of-life upgrades like save-anywhere, grind rails, and the Demon Haunt relationship system. The already-excellent press-turn combat and demon fusion remain compelling, making it the definitive version. The main letdown is that Switch performance still hasn't improved, with a 30fps cap, asset pop-in, and fuzzy resolution.

Our analysis

Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance improves an already fantastic RPG with useful quality-of-life changes and a new story path. It is the definitive pick for newcomers, though returning players must weigh buying the game again.
