After days of Atlus teasing a reveal for something related to Soul Hackers via a countdown website and Twitter, an official sequel to 1997’s Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Summoner: Soul Hackers has been revealed for a worldwide release on August 26, 2022.
In a war between Devil Summoners, it's up to Ringo and her team to decrypt destiny and save the world from apocalypse!

With a new cast and switch to a 3rd-person perspective, Soul Hackers 2 looks the business with stylish anime-adjacent art and a returning bestiary of series famous demons.
The original Soul Hackers first made its way to the West in 2012 on the Nintendo 3DS. Unusually for Atlus, Nintendo owners are getting the shaft in favour of Playstation 5 & 4, Xbox Series S|X, and Steam.
In lieu of a Persona announcement or Shin Megami Tensei V DLC, are you keen to see more of Atlus’ back catalogue get the full sequel treatment? Let us know in the comments or on social media.
