Shin Megami Tensei 5 PS5 PS4 Release Date

Shin Megami Tensei 5: Vengeance was previously locked in for release on the 21st June, but for whatever reason, it's now launching one week earlier, on the 14th June. Atlus has confirmed the new date via its social media accounts, and states that any current pre-orders should now be fulfilled on the updated schedule.

It's always quite nice when a game actually gets brought forward, isn't it?

In terms of other games releasing around the same time, it's worth noting that SMT 5 now shares the same launch date as Monster Hunter Stories and Monster Hunter Stories 2. It's a big day for PlayStation ports!

It does mean, however, that SMT 5 avoids a clash with Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree, which is still set for the 21st June. Let's face it, that's probably a good thing.

Does this change in release date impact your summer gaming plans at all? Casually summon some demons in the comments section below.
