Shin Megami Tensei V daily demon vol. 124 – Atavaka

We have another demon trailer for Shin Megami Tensei V that puts the spotlight on the creature known as Atavaka. It’s one of the franchise’s older creatures as it first appeared in Shin Megami Tensei II. It has since shown up in various titles Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne as well as Persona 4 and Persona 5 Royal.

Some background information for Atavaka is available thanks to the Megami Tensei Wiki. If you’re interested in learning more about this particular demon, continue on below.

Atavaka (“lord of the forest” in Sanskrit), or Daigensui Myo-O in Japanese, used to be a child-eating demon until he received Buddha’s enlightenment. He then became one of the Yaksha Kings and vassal to Bishamonten, as well as the protector god of the southwest.

You can get a look at the new demon trailer for Shin Megami Tensei V showing off Atavaka below.

As we march towards the final release of Shin Megami Tensei V on November 12, Atlus is expected to continue sharing these demon trailers – we’re now up to two per day instead of just one. All of the previous videos along with further coverage on the RPG in general can be found here.
