Meanwhile, here’s some extra information about Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne HD Remaster:

What begins as a normal day in Tokyo turns out to be everything but, when the Conception – an ethereal apocalypse – is invoked. The remains of the world are swallowed by chaos, as a demonic revolution descends into a broken city. Caught between a battle of gods and demons, the choices you make can bring life, rebirth, or death, and determine who triumphs.

This genre-defining, infamously punishing RPG is back and now includes:

– Remastered 3D models and backgrounds
– Additional difficulty settings for players of all skill levels
– Suspend save – save your progress whenever you need!
– Voiced audio – choose between Japanese and English VO
– An alternate branch featuring Raidou Kuzunoha

This release features fixes as well as patches implemented since the Japan release.
