Soul Hackers 2 is a little more than two weeks from launch with Atlus ramping up its promotion significantly. Yesterday, it offered new details on day one DLC, like costumes from Persona 4 and 5, Shin Megami Tensei 5, and so on. A new trailer is available and provides a broader view of the game’s story, setting and characters.
Though set in Karakucho, a den of “neon lights, convenience and corruption,” the world itself is in danger of ending. To counteract this, a force called Aion creates two AI agents – Ringo and Figue – to stop it. They subsequently recruit allies like Arrow, a former Yatagarasu member; Milady, a Phantom Society member; and Saizo, a freelance summoner to help.
This ragtag group will have its share of disagreements and emotional issues (especially given their revivals from death). Ringo can use the Soul Matrix to delve deeper into their minds, unlocking more memories and increasing Soul Levels, which can provide new abilities. Soul Levels can also increase by hanging out with a party member.
Soul Hackers 2 is out on August 26th for Xbox One, PS4, Xbox Series X/S, PS5, and PC. For more details on the game, head here.
