I’ve enjoyed digging into sprawling, dense RPGs ever since I was a kid, but Shin Megami Tensei has long been one of my gaming blind-spots. That’s despite me being a huge fan of the Persona series of spin-off RPGs – which are so popular in 2021 that still calling them spin-offs feels a bit reductive. So, when Atlus announced that Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne would be getting an HD remaster for Switch and other platforms, I was excited to finally experience a classic game in the franchise on a more modern, convenient platform.
It’s happening a little bit later than usual, but the annual Game Developers Choice Awards will be held on July 21. Nominees for the various categories were announced today.
Various Switch titles are represented here, including Hades – which received six nominations. Animal Crossing: New Horizons also has nominations for Game of the Year and the Best Design award.
