Now, it might just be me, or maybe I’m just way too obsessed with old-school games, but hey, guess what? Devil Summoner: Raidou Kuzunoha is back—brought to life like some kind of gaming necromancer with RAIDOU Remastered: The Mystery of the Soulless Army. Yeah, I know, it’s got that mysterious-sounding vibe, right? Anyway—ugh, let’s not dive into my gaming habits just yet.
Picture this: it’s about Raidou Kuzunoha XIV and his detective antics in a world that feels a bit like stepping into a time machine, back to Japan’s funky Taisho era. There’s this alternate setting, and, man, the whole detective thing with demon sidekicks? It’s got that mix of weird and awesome, y’know?
So ATLUS decided to dig up this gem from, wow, almost 19 years ago. And why? Maybe they thought, “What’s more fun than remastering dusty classics?” The visuals got a spa treatment, the combat’s a whole new level, and guess what—they’ve thrown in a truckload of demons. And now all the characters have voices. Can you believe that? Like, can you even imagine an NPC having a voice back in 2006?
The game’s got polished graphics and looks all shiny, bubble-wrapped for the PS4 and PS5. It’s like someone found a diamond in the attic and decided, “Hey, let’s make this sparkle again!”
Combat-wise, it’s like BAM! Everything’s revamped, with new combos, dodges, and this MAG Drain thing. Whatever that really means—maybe they’re draining your interest or hooking you in with magic. Who knows. But it’s not just about Rabid fan clicks, because they also expanded the demon lineup. I’m talking over 50 new ones—count ‘em!
Let’s talk about these other features too. At this place they call the Goumaden, fusion—you know, smushing demons together—becomes smooth sailing. Imagine ordering a demon fusion like a custom sandwich—sounds cool or just weird? Take your pick. Plus, they’ve got features in this Detective Journal thingy to help you out if you get stuck. And Gouto—the feline sounding board—keeps tabs on your objectives. Meow-gical!
Transport’s been upgraded too. No more hoofing it everywhere—you can just hop on streetcars. Quick trips! And the story? Fully voiced—so no more silent movie vibes. Choose your adventure with five difficulty levels. From easygoing to downright masochistic. Change it whenever you want—the fickle gamer’s dream.
They’ve even come out with video series—imagine learning about Taisho-era demon summoning through YouTube. We live in interesting times.
The storyline spins around this Raidou kid moonlighting as a detective with a mysterious schoolgirl client. Oh, surprise! She gets abducted, of course. It’s anime drama at its finest. I can almost hear the dramatic music.
Gameplay gets splashed with this demon-tactic combat system. Raidou’s like a conductor orchestrating demon moves. Real-time combat makes it feel like you’re juggling cats and fire. And your demon allies—they got minds of their own but follow your orders. Out in the field, you can take enemies’ energies with the MAG Drain System, turning combat into something strategic.
And then, for the social part of the game, there’s talking with captured demons. That’s right, loosen them up and they’ll reward you. Maybe they respond better to jokes than threats. I’ll never understand demons fully—who can?
Okay, confession time: side quests. They’re a guilty pleasure and RAIDOU has its share. The game sprinkles them in, offering up rewards. And by-the-way, there’s a post-game challenge to keep that enthusiasm rolling.
And mangos! No, wait—manga! Two chapters of the Raidou Kuzunoha vs. The Lone Marebito series are up for grabs. Could be a secret sauce to the game’s universe.
Lastly, don’t miss the DLC goodies. They’re like toppings on your pizza—optional but oh-so-tasty. Get in-game items through simple steps—register on SEGA Account. Easy peasy, just don’t forget to claim your code before the deadline. It’s on the house—or rather, in the game.
Well, there you have it. Devil Summoner: Raidou Kuzunoha’s return. It’s one heck of a blast from the past with a side of demon chaos. Looking forward to diving into that world—sounds like a trip worth booking, right?
