Raidou Remastered Has Over 120 New and Old SMT Series Demons

Atlus announced new details about Raidou Remastered: The Mystery of The Soulless Army, and part of that confirmed over 120 demons taken from new and old Shin Megami Tensei games, including SMT V Vengeance, will appear. The company also discussed four of the characters present in this game and the Hell’s Pawns group. It also noted Raidou Kuzunoha can learn Summoner Skills this time around.

In the original Devil Summoner: Raidou Kuzunoha vs. the Soulless Army, there were almost 80 demons available. (That number will be lower if you don’t consider the Legion variants from Fusion accidents different characters.) In Raidou Remastered: The Mystery of The Soulless Army, that number jumps by over 50 to bring the total number of demons from Shin Megami Tensei mainline games and SMT spin-offs up to over 120. Atlus specifically cited two games some will be pulled from, and they’re Devil Summoner 2: Raidou Kuzunoha vs King Abaddon and SMT V Vengeance. All demons you team up with can learn Combat and Passive Special Skills to help fight. These are earned from Fusions and level-grinding, though you can also get Skill Books to teach them abilities. Loyalty influences Passive Skill development as well. 

Atlus shared art of some of the demons we’ll see in the game, and you can look at them below:

As for the newly mentioned characters, they include friends and enemies. Kaya’s uncle Kiyoshi Daidouji is head of the Daidouji family and its textiles company, and he’s trying to possibly help find her after the Hell’s Pawns took his niece. Kenzo Satake is an ally. He’s a yakuza with the Kanto Haguro Family who acts as an informant. Private Sadakichi is a former aware of Munakata’s Super Soldier Project and trying to alert the public as to what’s going on. Said project is also tied to the Hell’s Pawns enemies. Finally, there’s a strange creature called Red Cape terrorizing people around town.

Here are screenshots of those folks:

Finally, Atlus brought up Raidou Kuzunoha’s Summoner Skills. They’re somewhat similar to the ones demons learn, as there are two kinds. Combat Skills and Sword Skills both affect his skills and power in fights. With the Combat Skills, those can be changed during a fight. The Sword Skills are equipped outside of it. All of these are learned from crafted Sword Alchemy weapons.

Raidou Remastered: The Mystery of The Soulless Army will come to the Switch, Switch 2, PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X, and PC on June 19, 2025, though only Switch, PS5, and Xbox Series X physical copies will be available. If you pre-order, you get Raidou Glasses for the character to wear. If you sign up for more details on the official site, you can read the manga based on the series.
