Atlus released a new trailer for Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance that provides an extensive summary over all the new features they’ve introduced for the expanded re-release of this mainline SMT entry. They emphasized, once again, that players can play the original story of Shin Megami Tensei V by choosing the Canon of Creation at the beginning of the game; meanwhile, the brand-new story can be seen by choosing the alternate Canon of Vengeance. People are free to choose whichever one they want to play right at the start – there is no need to unlock the new story and it will be available immediately.

A heavy focus of the Complete Guide trailer is concentrating on the new combination abilities available to players. By pairing up specific demons in a party, new combat skills will be available to utilize. These skills consume the Magatsuhi gauge. One of the examples the trailer gave was pairing up Feng Huang, Moloch, and Surt; Feng Huang has a buff that increases fire damage when damaging a foe weak to fire and Moloch gives fire attacks a chance to score a critical hit. Pair those up with Surt’s ability to buff allies to match their fire affinity to his and players can deal absolutely devastating damage every time they target an enemy’s Fire weakness.

Additionally, Atlus has given a huge list of other additional features and adjustments coming to Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance. We have listed all 50 of them below the trailer.
