The story may be tied toShin Megami Tensei IV, but Atlus asserts prospective players do not necessarily need to play the first game to get what’s going on here. However, with familiar faces like Navarre and Isabeau returning, veterans will likely get more out of the experience.

In terms of mechanics, Atlus has been listening to fans and has made a number of adjustments to the gameplay systems sinceShin Megami Tensei IVreleased in 2013.
