Shin Megami Tensei V daily demon vol. 089 – Nekomata

Atlus seems to be increasing the pace of its Shin Megami Tensei V demon trailers – at least for the time being – as we have yet another video for the weekend that now shows off Nekomata.

Here’s some background information on Nekomata, courtesy of the Megami Tensei Wiki:

In Japanese folklore, a nekomata, also known as a bakeneko, is a type of yokai that appears as a cat with supernatural abilities akin to those of the fox or raccoon dog. A cat may become a bakeneko in a number of ways: it may reach a certain age, be kept for a certain number of years, grow to a certain size or be allowed to keep a long tail. In the last case, the tail forks in two and the bakeneko is then called a nekomata. This superstition may have some connection to the breeding of the Japanese Bobtail.

Check out the new demon trailer for Nekomata in Shin Megami Tensei V below.

Switch owners will be able to get their hands on Shin Megami Tensei V when it arrives on November 12. Our coverage of these demon trailers will continue leading into release, and you can see previous spotlights for the game here.
