The official Shin Megami Tensei IV website received a tiny update today. It now plays the Shin Megami Tensei opening theme song and contains a notice that the Atlus Maniacs team is developing the title.

Another message reads, “Please look forward to a followup report (Kazuyuki Yamai).”

There likely won’t be any Shin Megami Tensei IV news until Devil Summoner: Soul Hackers hits store shelves in Japan. Atlus is including the game’s debut trailer in Soul Hackers, which launches in Japan on August 30.

Thanks to 4Him for the tip.
