Shin Megami Tensei 5: Vengeance was officially revealed during February's Nintendo Direct. The game is launching on Switch, PS5, PS4, Xbox, and PC on June 21, and preorders are live now for a special launch edition that comes with a neat bonus. Vengeance is an updated version of Shin Megami Tensei 5, which launched exclusively for Switch in November 2021. That means this marks the first time Xbox, PlayStation, and PC owners will get to check out the adventure. Along with the original story, Vengeance includes a whole new storyline and reworked graphics. This should make it definitive way to play the excellent JRPG in 2024, much like how Persona 5 Royal is the best way to play Persona 5. If you plan on getting the physical version, you'll almost certainly want to preorder your copy to secure launch-edition bonuses. Meanwhile, PC players can save some cash on their preorder for either the standard or Digital Deluxe edition. The launch edition of Vengeance includes the base game along with an exclusive steelbook and two in-game Sacred Treasure Sets. These DLC packs come with Gleam Grenades to attack your enemies and Haraedo Beads to recover your HP. This special launch edition is available for PS5, Xbox Series X, and Nintendo Switch. The standard edition of Vengeance includes the base game and any eligible preorder bonuses. But since it's the same price as the launch edition (which includes a few goodies), you shouldn't opt for the standard unless the launch edition sells out. Steam preorders are discounted at GameSpot sister site Fanatical. You can snag your preorder of the standard edition for $52.19. Preorder the Digital Deluxe edition to get the base game along with the following in-game goodies: - Mitama Dance of Wealth
- Mitama Dance of EXP
- Mitama Dance of Miracles
- Holy Will and Profane Dissent
- Sakura Cinders of the East
- 2 Sacred Treasures Set
Like the standard edition, you can save on the PC version (Steam key) at Fanatical. The Digital Deluxe edition is only $60.89 at Fanatical, which means you're essentially paying the standard edition price and getting all the goodies above for free.
