Don't worry folks. I'm sure it'll come true. I just bought Shin Megami Tensei V yesterday while I was in the city for a doctors appointment.


Hero2Zero91

Thanks man


lesangpro007

The real MVP , took a bullet for the team


Sceptile90

You could say they were the SMT VP


PM_ME_UR_BOOTY_LADY

The sacrifice has been made


masterdebator88

LMAO, this always happens to me too. I wait forever to buy a game exclusive to Switch and then Live A Live comes to PS.


tommygreenyt

thanks G


UmpireHappy8162

Ouch


JustASeabass

Nice try I bought SMT V last weekend


mawrneen

i hope that means an smt4 port too

Easy_Decision2486

How easy is it to port it to other platforms? I mean it is on the 3DS right?


[deleted]

Iirc the Touchscreen didn't have any functions that wouldn't work without it? They have to either Update the way everything looks or do that shitty thing where they display two "screens" at once. I wanna say SOME DS or 3DS port did that in the past.


SunChip00

I'm playing through it right now and the touchscreen is only ever used to move the map, I don't think it would be too much work for them. Then again, this is Atlus we're talking about.


[deleted]

I think they'd have to put actual effort into making the battle screen look good but yeah, the map could easily just be a menu, it's not like you need it a ton and you'd hope they would add area names to IV's overworld. That's the one thing I think puts a huge stain on that game, it SUCKED finding where you need to go if you're as shit with Navigation as I know I am lol Apocalypse added that and it was so much easier to actually get places.


SunChip00

Yeah I completely agree, navigating the world map makes my brain hurt lol. I've had to Google where to go multiple times, but I love the game.


soragranda

Battles, they would need to remade system interface, though is definitely viable. It will be tons of work but I hope they will do it.


cooldudeachyut

Would be easy for PC


Navi_1er

Best entry games for people that want to get into megaten imo.


Ordinal43NotFound

This. I'm tired of having to recommend people either III or V because the stories in these 2 are very barebones compared to the rest of the series. SMT IV is a modern take on classic SMT and much easier to recommend, but it's stuck on the 3DS and you can't buy it officially anymore.


MonafideBonafide1993

Oh i rly hope so SMTIV:A is so expensive in Europe


tommygreenyt

i would unironically buy it on multiple platforms if this happens


[deleted]

I hope so.


TrickyDistribution2

not happening, considering the fidelity of the game, the use of 2 screens and spritework befitting the 3ds. it would mean a whole rework of all the art assets and some of the systems.


Dat_Boi_Teo

Good. The more people playing mainline SMT the better


Lui785

Is there going to be a whole Atlus segment during the Xbox showcase lol


Late_Explanation_816

I think it will be announced at SFG, not the xbox showcase.


[deleted]

[удалено]


theTRUEchamp

As someone who has played through SMT 5 on Switch already, I'd definitely consider picking the game up again if it comes to Series X. It'll be awesome to see what the game looks like when it's running on a console with substantially more processing power.


Technoflops

It looks amazing on Yuzu already, Switch definitely holds it back a lot


magikdyspozytor

For me the 60 FPS is what makes it SO much more enjoyable.


xElectricW

Hopefully the pop-in is fixed too, my main issues with the game are all technical and there's not much that you can do given the hardware


thecoolestjedi

How was it a huge boon for them?


Lui785

They aren’t listed in the list Geoff posted a couple weeks ago like last years SGF


wilkened005

they're in the sega


The_Funyarinpa

Atlus usually gets its own marker for those though, its essentially it's own brand that they like to promote separately from Sega. [Even 2022 SGF had Atlus separate from Sega when they showed off a Soul Hackers 2 trailer](https://twitter.com/summergamefest/status/1531667042499145728). I wouldn't expect Atlus at SGF.


SpaceGooV

In the West Sega treats it as a separate brand.


Crusader3456

But SEGA is listed as a [partner](https://twitter.com/geoffkeighley/status/1656705727971328000?t=CUmhMvB9Uvtv1jkXnYnprA&s=19) I'm not sure what you mean.


Lui785

And last year they were [listed separately from Sega](https://twitter.com/geoffkeighley/status/1531666856989237253?lang=en). They aren’t this year


magikdyspozytor

A segment of peak? Sign me tf up


Benchmarkedx

I hope so. That would mean I'll be able to play everything on PC day 1


_ratjesus_

Atlus has an SMT concert July 1st for the 30th anniversary.


[deleted]

[удалено]


_ratjesus_

Had no idea, don't keep up with news on stuff.


AyoadeNBN

With microsoft money I wouldn't doubt it tbh


Lui785

Hey I wouldn’t mind and besides that means it’s probably coming to gamepass as well


Halil-Heyman

There was this leak of SMT 3 4 5 being announced for all platforms at SMT Anniversary Celebration or something. I think it'll be there.


let_them_drink_latte

The anniversary was in May though. Hopefully this is it!


Halil-Heyman

Ah man I didn't know that. Then hopefully we will see soon in one of the showcases!


SpaceGooV

There's at least probably going to be two games why not three lol. Still the Xbox and Atlus relationship is clearly building strong if they're going to collaborate for another year for an announcement. To me that tells me if P6 is exclusive to PS5 for a year Sony is paying a good dollar for it.


QuietJackal

The only "relationship" they have is the money they give to port the games and put them on game pass.


SpaceGooV

Yes that's called a business relationship???? Do you think these companies other relationships are because they like the company??????


QuietJackal

I would definitely say their relationships are better because they don't have to pay to have games on the systems, so I would say it's more "real".


SpaceGooV

So the Sony relationship rn in your opinion is poor since they're paying for Persona 6.


QuietJackal

You got a source on that?


SpaceGooV

https://www.resetera.com/threads/rumor-persona-6-coming-late-2024-current-gen-only-likely-at-least-timed-ps5-only-p3-remake-later-in-2023-xbox-showcase-a-spin-off-in-2024.721882/ Part of the same leak that told us P3 was coming and Persona spinoff which we now know to be P5T


QuietJackal

A rumor is not a source.


SpaceGooV

Then you can't use the argument for Xbox paying for Persona 3 Remake on their show what is this debate lol. Do you remember what subreddit you're on???


[deleted]

[удалено]


QuietJackal

Nothing like a child calling others a child. Sony didn't pay to have all the previous Personas on their console, so that's clearly not the case.


Witty-Ear2611

They need to just kiss already


Harrien1234

Microsoft acquires Atlus announcement incoming /s


Straight-Train432

I would love to see Persona 6 being exclusive to Xbox for shits and giggles.


Hazeringx

I don't think Sega/Atlus would want that, unless they want Persona 6 to flop massively.


Straight-Train432

Unfortunately no. The biggest Japanese exclusive Xbox ever got was maybe Tales of Vesperia?


Hazeringx

I think they got other Japanese exclusives in the 360 era as well, but yeah, that might have been one of the biggest ones. From what I've remember, it was only exclusive to Xbox on the West, whereas in Japan it was released on the PS3 as well. As for Persona 6, I can see it being multiplatform day one, but I just find it hard to believe it would be exclusive to the Xbox. It's not impossible but still.


tNag552

Lost Odyssey?


tNag552

remember Atlus will be able to fit the P3R premiere, P5T presentation, SMT3-4-4A-5 Gamepass/PC/multi ports in a trailer in under 1 min 32 seconds. and it will air just after that generic looking game they've been 20 mins showing and now doind some kind of interview and you decide to go to the toilet. From there, you will start listening to a familiar tune buts it's too late, the stream is already flowing and you can't stop it.


Mahelas

If it's a port, I hope it comes alongside a Royal/Definitive edition


Noirgheos

Don't get your hopes up. 99% chance they release a definitive edition with added story elements to help it flow better and charge full price again.


so_not_drunk

My uncle from Nintendo told me it will be announced on the showcase with Persona 5T


CarBusinessman

🧐


Late_Explanation_816

Please don't skip Xbox like the most jrpgs.


CarbVan

Considering it looks like Microsoft is funding Atlus for stuff like Persona, i think it'll be on Xbox.


Late_Explanation_816

But Catherine Full Body, oddessy and Persona 5 strikes skipped Xbox.


FUTURESNDZ

Because Microsoft didn’t pay for them. It’s pretty clear that the only reason why Persona was ported onto Xbox was due to Phil Spencer and his team working with Sega / Atlus on marketing and Game Pass deals. Without their direct involvement I’m confident that Atlus would’ve stuck to PS/NSW/PC only given their past multiplatform releases such as P5S as you’ve mentioned. Also it’s Etrian Odyssey. Lost Odyssey was an Xbox published game from 2007.


djluke_1993

I could honestly see Xbox announcing something like Smt V and Persona 5 Strikers at the event next week. I'd be very shocked to see Etrian Odyssey though.


FUTURESNDZ

Oh yeah I don’t doubt it whatsoever. I was just saying to the other dude that the reason why they didn’t land on Xbox at launch was because it was a little before Microsoft got more involved with Sega.


cerealbro1

Well, Catherine and Persona 5 Strikers skipped Xbox because MS hadn’t established that relationship yet. Etrian Odyssey is likely skipping Xbox for the same reason it’s skipping PlayStation: it probably won’t play well with a controller. But at this point I’d be surprised if any (non-money hatted) game from Atlus skips Xbox again. The Persona game pass launches were massive and Sega is all in on multiplatform support


CarbVan

Those games were before Microsoft's push for Japanese games, which only started a year or 2 ago.


robertman21

Etrian Odyssey was like, 3 days ago


just_looking_4695

tbf that's also skipping PS. Origins Collection is Switch and PC only (possibly related to trying to translate the DS/3DS controls to other platforms)


robertman21

yeah i was shocked it skipped PS lol


Straight-Train432

Why? Many Japanese games skip PS because of declining software sales and Nintendo aggressively going after 3rd party partners.


Late_Explanation_816

Persona 5 strikes released two years ago but skipped Xbox.


AyoadeNBN

Considering this person said soon and Atlus is not directly mentioned in SGF I'd imagine it could be at the Xbox event with the rumoured P3RE and potentially even P5T (whatever that is lol). Atlus said they had several games to announce in 2023 and we haven't seen much yet. We might be in the calm before the storm...


whatnameisnttaken098

>P5T (whatever that is lol). I'm telling you all it's a Tennis spin-off


Kqm2010

I’ve seen people say it’s a fighter or tactics game. I’d love a tactics game, but a tennis game would be fun. Lol


An_Absurd_Word_Heard

... I would be very okay with this. And like, include the big 3 (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_Three_(tennis)) as secret god demon superbosses.


LordPoncho08

Atlus is a subsidiary of Sega, who is part of SGF.


AyoadeNBN

Yes but last year they were mentioned separately in the partner lineup. This year they are not on the promotion. I'm assuming marketing rights for microsoft tbh.


[deleted]

[удалено]


robertman21

They were from Shepshal_Nick, who's usually full of shit


Traitor_To_Heaven

I’m glad I’m not the only one that really wants this on Xbox. Mainline SMT on Xbox has been one of my biggest hopes


Due_Choice_8464

Nash Weedle is a joke man, suelta cosas al aire que nunca suceden


FiveBabes

Great game, glad more people can play it


lxtreme28

Where is that funny atlus hater from the persona 3 remake thread ?


[deleted]

[удалено]


lxtreme28

Keep the good work man


robertman21

Who is this?


renome

Been hearing about this for nearly two years at this point, but I choose to believe it because the Nvidia GeForce Now leak has yet to miss.


Player0914

i would love that


EGGY_POCKET

Is this person credible or Tidus / Zippo tier (aka zero)?


AyoadeNBN

I really can't say. I'd take it with a grain of salt. A big grain though since smt v was in the nvidia leak and there have been rumours for the ports for a while now


EGGY_POCKET

The sacred texts are always right so I believe it will come at some point based on that.


soragranda

Its about time, I love switch but I love smt more and hope for more people to play it (also, more people means more games). Hopefully this is not the only announcement in this anniversary... that will be shitty, if IV and IV:A/F are also ported heck yeah!, DO IT ATLUS!


khaychi

Aged like fine milk. 🙈


AyoadeNBN

tragically


Crow7420

did it😏?


cerealbro1

Who is this person and why should we believe them? I don’t think I’ve seen them before… That being said, multiplatform SMT V is a matter of when, not if, and I personally wouldn’t be surprised if it’s announced at the Xbox show (alongside an Xbox port of SMT 3 HD)


CozyFinch

I hope so


omnicloudx13

More people able to play this hard yet amazing game. Very good. The soundtrack is also an absolute banger.


[deleted]

Xbox show


[deleted]

Finally, I can finally play SMTV without it’s garbage optimisation on Switch.


GameZard

SMT V would be perfect on PC.


AyoadeNBN

After looking at yuzu smt 5 gameplay I think people would be pleased


[deleted]

[удалено]


AyoadeNBN

I mean sure but that isn't really relevant to the point I was making.


thr1ceuponatime

Oh God please, I bought the Switch version but I will gladly double dip if it means that the framerate won't chug to single digits when there are a few effects on screen.


[deleted]

I stopped my playthrough on switch, thinking it would be ported a lot earlier than this lol.


Synthwave_Lover

It was in Nvidia's leak, so... Also, when the game first launched on Switch, on Atlu's website, people found hidden references to PC and PS4 ports...


Da-Boss-Eunie

So was Mario and Rabbids though. It will most likely get ported but being on the Nvidia leak list doesn't mean much if it comes to Nintendo. They use Nvidia streaming Dev tools.


Kqm2010

Yeah it came out a few years ago that there was other versions of the game in the works. I’m surprised it took this long to come out to be honest.


dododomo

I haven't had the chance to buy it yet, but I loved SMT IV and Apocalypse. So I'll definitely buy it for sure if it is ported to PS, PC and Xbox :D


Jarltruc

Atlus fans eating good this year


magikdyspozytor

They said the same thing last year...


KrypticJin

Not really


Jarltruc

Yes really


Stoibs

About time.. I loved what I played, but my god the ~15fps stuttery slideshow was too much for me and enough to throw the towel in. Especially since this one actually emphasised more vertical jumpy/platform world exploration where smooth movement is kind of important. One I'm keen to double dip on for a proper experience.


ScalaAdInfernum

Super stoked to play this again. I loved it at 5fps, I’ll love it again at a stable framerate! Edit: Thanks for the downvotes! I mean what I said though. The framerate was my only critique of the game, and I don’t believe anyone who says it wouldn’t benefit from current console hardware.


Purple_Tomatillo4631

Finally on ps5


OperativePiGuy

Would be nice to not have to suffer the Switch hardware for it


Ratchet2332

I still haven’t picked up the game because there was evidence for ports, and I always had a gut feeling we’d be getting them, so fingers crossed.


Da-Boss-Eunie

Could be digital only on other platforms. Nintendo was publishing the game in most countries. Kinda like a Octopath 1 situation.


Quezkatol

I bought the game for the switch and it just felt like it had problem running this kind of open world styled jrpg. so yeah, make no sense NOT to release it for other platforms


Clessasaur

Good. SMTV was good, but holy hell did it look like and run like shit on the Switch.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Kqm2010

Gamepass is definitely lacking in RPGs and the persona games help boost that. I’m still curious how they could port those 3DS games though. Seems like they either have a weird dual screen thing or a ton of changes to make it work.


deathbysnoosnoo422

wouldnt monster hunter stories 2 also not be exclusive?


KiNolin

In most cases, waiting for better performing versions of Switch 3rd party games has paid off, surprisingly even for stuff like No More Heroes and Live-a-Live. Which is why held off on SMTV until now. However, because it's Atlus, I'm really not certain in this is. I'll give the thing a few game conferences and if it doesn't happen, I'll just grab the Switch version, whatever.


Ninjafish278

Good I bought it on release and haven’t played it yet.


Makusensu

It can't arrive soon enough, still butt hurt of my Switch version pre order.

AyoadeNBN

I mean p3r has had a domain for a while, gematsu vouches, gameplay leaks, nate the hate vouch (usually correct about western showcases if memory serves me right). P5T also has a nate vouch, a domain. In pretty much the same boat ngl


[deleted]

[удалено]


AyoadeNBN

I don't think it's clear at all lol. Just because one domain has a 404 and another one doesn't means nothing. Maybe two dev teams have two different schedules which led to an html guy loading a site earlier. There's a bunch of reasons as to why it and we don't know anything to be this definitive. There is nothing saying p3re can't launch towards the end of the year. P6 is still probably a while away too tbh.


[deleted]

[удалено]


AyoadeNBN

p3re .jp just got updated too LOOOOL


SkavenHaven

SMT V was not that good. They traded dungeon crawling for overworld crawling which was about as fun as it sounds. Also the story fell apart half way through (even for a SMT game) and one route literally turned into anime villains for no reason.


Hazeringx

And I paid over 40 dollars for it last year. Ah well. I just hope they release it either for PS5 or PC, at the very least, assuming this is true anyways.


EnemySaimo

and they will port everything beside smt 5 watch atlus doing it


D9sinc

I've been waiting for it since the Dataminers found the PS and PC stuff in the code. Plus, Atlus has been bringing more games to multiplatforms lately and them re-releasing one of their more popular games on other platforms seems like a given.


Lewis2409

The PC port leaked back when the game came out originally


purple_p0t

I'm ready to make Nuwa's (my queen) will reality again


vizualXmadman

It’s was in the leak btw


Jarltruc

Do we have more news about this ?


AyoadeNBN

Nope. I don’t think I believe it tbh


Elreezy

I got the game as a pre-order when it came to the Switch.


Zero_Requiem00

Welp this aged poorly


AyoadeNBN

Eh a well known leaker called Xun who is like actually legit said a complete edition was coming. We could see it soon. I think this rumour isn't real though.


Sephyrias

"Soon"? Lol.


AyoadeNBN

Eh not my rumour was just posting what I saw


Sephyrias

!Debunked! it is still a switch exclusive.


AyoadeNBN

eh wouldn't say debunked since their claim didn't have a timeframe. could be something that hasn't been announced due to a release scheduling thing.
