Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor Overclock Coming Soon

Good. I ate up Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor so fast that I barely tasted it. It was that good, folks. No indigestion, either. It went down so smooth.

It would have went down smoother on a portable with a bit more graphical power and bigger screens. A system like the 3DS maybe? Sure. This morning, at a Nintendo 3DS press conference, Reggie Fils-Aime listed the 3DS upgrade of SMT:DS among the launch window games for the US. That means that Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor Overclock could be a launch game for the 3DS in the US. How delicious would that be?

In case you missed it, Overclock will be an upgrade of the Atlus SRPG that uses the 3D tech to have demons flying out at you. It will also use the increased graphical power to give us higher resolution maps, and more space for text and stats. And more demons. It will also feature full voice acting and brand new game content with a new episode called “8th Day.”

Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor Headed To Nintendo 3DS

Announced last year, some brand new details on the Nintendo 3DS Devil Survivor re-hash has come to light via Japanese gaming magazine, Famitsu.

Shin Megami Tensai: Devil Survivor is a tactical RPG originally released on Nintendo DS in Japan and North America only. The story follows a group of teens in modern day Tokyo trying to survive as the city is taken over by demons.

The Nintendo 3DS version, called Devil Survivor: Over Clock extends the gameplay in various different ways. One change is the storyline now goes over 8 days, rather than 7 of the original DS title.

The game also features over 150 different monsters, the original featuring 130. Over Clock will be fully voiced, the magazine stating there will be over 200,000 lines of voice work. Levels have been redesigned to take advantage of the Nintendo 3DS screen and the game also takes advantage of the 3D effect.

According to Famitsu, the game is around 90% completed, meaning a 2011 release is likely.
