Looks a bit odd, but it's cool that it exists.

Looks cool, but also looks kinda weird too >_>

-No demon party members, it looks more like they're special summon attacks? Or are they literally gonna be treated like Personas for each party member? It's hard to tell
-The party's only 4 instead of 6, which has been a thing for a while now in SMT (iirc, OG Soul Hackers was the last time they used the 6 party member system)
-The main heroine is the one you control, but it looks like the guy in red has the GUMP? Unless all party members have GUMPs for their special summons, that's just kinda odd >_>
-I was kinda hoping for more 90s cyberpunk aesthetic

Otherwise I'm still hyped, cuz I loved original Soul Hackers...but a little less so now lol. I just hope it isn't just "Persona but painted with cyberpunk". The lack of demon party members has me worried.

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]

The Devil Summoner series doesn't deal with post-apocalyptic settings like SMT mainline does. You deal with a lot more human characters because of that too. The story is more light-hearted and has plenty of jokes and tongue-in-cheek humor >_>

The "Dungeons" usually take place in normal places that are over run with demons like museums, airports, automobile factories, etc. But can also take place in supernatural places once in a while too, like a horror house inside the internet, literal hell, and navigating a giant virtual chessboard while avoiding spaces that would result in checkmates. The dungeons are also a little on the smaller scale but there's a lot of them, so you can comfortably bang out 1 or 2 dungeons in a session.

Demon parties members are also slightly different from SMT, where they have different personalities and you have to give them gifts or perform actions they like to increase their "loyalty" to you. When their loyalty is high, they let you use more of their moves freely.

From what I understand, it's Cyberpunk SMT with a demon loyalty system on top

@SydneySweenHero OG soul hackers on the 3DS: yay or nay?

Hell yeah, go for it! I love that game! Just keep in mind that it is an RPG from 1997 >_> So it can be a little janky and aged at times. But there's a lot of QoL in that version like full maps and animation speed ups that help too.

Good thing I just imported a new SD card into my 3DS and downloaded all the SMT games. Now I can get back to playing Soul Hackers before the new one comes out

The 3DS one is the way to play Soul Hackers for sure, but it's still basically a very very slightly touched up port, not much more than that.

It's also very outdated in terms of feels, and the late game is ultra unbalanced. The added late game content makes you wonder why every demon aside from Metatron even exists.

Still pretty curious about this game though. It's probably not gonna be that much related to the first game I feel like.

I'm mixed on this tbh. For me, a lot of the charm of Soul Hackers came from its surreal, gritty, 90's futurism.

Comparatively, this looks so bright and sterile. A lot of broad, flat textures and arbitrary geometry that plagues every "digital world" aesthetic nowadays.

But I did love the first game, and the SMT family of games tend to play great, so I'm still a bit excited.

Little mixed on this. Personally, I would have preferred this to be more in line with the original Soul Hackers but it's more SMT so I'll definitely play it. I hope the game turns out good.

The approach that it's taking with party members (having them be humans, less emphasis on the demons) is weird. I feel like this should have been a completely new spinoff of the SMT series, but I guess it still has several connections to the original Soul Hackers.

Also, it's funny how it's on every console--even PS4 and XBOne--except for the Switch.

Indirectly it appears you can. Add your NNID to your Nintendo account and add funds to the Nintendo account. The balance is shared.

Yeah. People were joking that Atlus would announce "Persona: Soul Hackers", but it looks like that ended up being more true than we anticipated.
