After teasing itover Twitteron September 2, Atlus published on September 3 a new trailer forShin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne HD. The trailer goes over the game’s story, reintroducing its characters and showcasing some of the battle system. It’s a pretty good memoryShuffle!if you tried out the original. The trailer is also a good occasion to notice once again how the game is fully voiced by a brand new cast. It’s full of popular seiyuu, some of which worked on recent Atlus productions such asPersona 5 (Royal). Raidou is most notably voiced byTomokazu Sugita,and the cat Gouto byJoji Nakata.
The final scene of the trailer reminds us Atlus, withShin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne HD Remaster,also brought back Capcom andDevil May Cryprotagonist Dante via a paid DLC. You can hear Dante’s cool voice byToshiyuki Morikawa. A special trailer showcasing the demon slayer was shareda few weeks ago.
Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne HD RemasterJapanese Trailer 2
Atlus games tend to have much more pre-release promotion material in Japan than in the west, so I assume an English version of the trailer won’t be coming anytime soon. Some might also say Japanese games reveal and spoil too much before release, but I wholeheartedly disagree.
Shin Megami Tensei 3: Nocturne HD Remasterwill release for PS4 and Nintendo Switch in Japan on October 29. The remaster will be localized a bit later and come west in Spring 2021. No precise date was shared yet by Atlus West and Sega. We’ll be sure to tell you as soon as possible when the announcement rolls around.
