Shin Megami Tensei 5: Vengeance is Europe’s next Nintendo Switch Online Game Trial

It’s been a bit since the last Nintendo Switch Online Game Trial, but a new one has now been announced – at least for Europe. Those with an active subscription will be able to play Shin Megami Tensei 5: Vengeance at no extra cost during the event period.

The entire game can be accessed during the trial. Also, save data will transfer over if you decide to make a purchase later. There will likely be a sale for everyone to take advantage of as well.

Below is an overview of the RPG:

Embark on this definitive version of the critically acclaimed Shin Megami Tensei 5, massively expanded with a brand-new storyline featuring new locations, demons, and choices to make that will dictate the fate of all existence.

Shin Megami Tensei 5: Vengeance consists of two complete story paths: experience a brand-new route, the “Canon of Vengeance” – a dramatic tale of revenge by the fallen, centered around new characters and an enigmatic cohort of demons, the Qadištu, who plot their own dark designs apart from the war of those who fight to maintain order and those who seek to defy it. Or explore the original story told in Shin Megami Tensei V, the “Canon of Creation” – an eternal conflict between angels and demons, in which the protagonist fights for the world’s fate.

When a grisly murder scene in modern-day Tokyo blocks our protagonist’s walk home, an unplanned detour leaves him buried and unconscious. He awakens in a new Tokyo, a wasteland ravaged by apocalypse now called Da’at… but before bloodthirsty demons can claim his life, a savior emerges, and the two of them unite to become a mighty being, neither human nor demon: a Nahobino.

With newfound power, the protagonist ventures through Da’at, an enigmatic realm filled with mythical deities and demonic tyrants in constant conflict for survival. Searching for answers, the protagonist must forge his own path in a battle between angels and demons to dictate the fate of the world.

The Shin Megami Tensei 5: Vengeance Nintendo Switch Online Game Trial for Europe begins tomorrow, lasting until October 22. We’ll let you know if we hear about anything similar for North America.
