ATLUS has announced that a free demo for the demon-collecting RPG Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance will be available today on PlayStation at 4pm AEDT.

In the demo, players can choose between two story paths: the brand-new story “Canon of Vengeance” or the original story from SMTV “Canon of Creation”. Explore a post-apocalyptic Tokyo, now reduced to an expansive wasteland called Da’at that is torn apart by a conflict between angels and demons. Progression from the demo will carry over to the full game, so players can continue their journey right from where they left off. Both story paths can be experienced for those interested in exploring each.

The free demo release follows the patch released earlier this month on all available platforms, includes the following.

• New Demon Kishin Marici
• Addition of Fan-selected Demon Navigators (Hell Biker, Idun, Fionn mac Cumhaill, Mothman, Mara, and Cleopatra)
• The New Elite Difficulty for the Virtual Trainer
