It’s tough to believe, but Shin Megami Tensei IV still hasn’t arrived in Europe. On the bright side, Atlus will finally have a concrete update about the game tomorrow. We’re hearing that something may surface at around 10 AM GMT or so.

Based on comments from an Atlus staffer, it sounds like Shin Megami Tensei IV has been reconfirmed as digital-only in Europe. It also seems that getting the game out in the continent has been a bit of a mess.
