Shin Megami Tensei 5

Atlus continues to publish its video series consisting of over 200 videos, dedicated to the demons of Shin Megami Tensei 5. The Nintendo Switch JRPG now shows us, with a trailer, Kikuri-Hime, the demon-princess who first debuted in Digital Devil Story: Megami Tensei II in 1990.

Kikuri-Hime, how you may have guessed, is a character inspired by Japanese mythology. The creature is able to perform a series of wind attacks, but also healing moves to keep Shin Megami Tensei 5's party healthy, as you can also see in the trailer we shared at the beginning of the news. Even if they are not used, in the video we can see that the demon also has light attacks and physical blows.

Through previous trailers we got to know other creatures, such as Sarasvati, inspired by the goddess of art and knowledge, but also Flauros, Dominion, Mitra, Basilisk and Genbu.

You can finally read our special: Shin Megami Tensei V, all you need to know about the new JRPG for Switch.
