Now as the Demi-Fiend you need to work with and against demons to try to return Tokyo to what it was before. After exploring a creepy hospital, and watching Tokyo envelop itself in a ball the protagonist reawakens as a Demi-Fiend. Quick to establish a setting, players find themselves exploring areas of Tokyo including Yoyogi, Shinjuku, and Harajuku via an overworld map. The protagonist, whom you can name, is planning on meeting up with his two friends, Chiaki and Isamu, at a hospital at the request of their teacher. Shin Megami Tensei III throws players into the story pretty quickly, and with little explanation. What a lovely day in Tokyo, boy I hope nothing goes wrong. Much of what made SMT and Persona the franchises they are today started with this game, this HD Remaster gives new and old fans alike a chance to play this occult-themed JRPG. The popularity of Persona 5 and spin-off Persona 5 Strikers, the remaster of Persona 4 Golden, and now Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne HD Remaster is just a month away. You'd have to be living under a rock to not see how the Shin Megami Tensei and Persona franchise has been exploding in the west as of late.
