Shin Megami Tensei IV: Apocalypse follows a Hunter cadet who, after being killed by a demon, is resurrected by the god Dagda and must maintain a delicate balance between peace and anarchy in post-apocalyptic Tokyo. The protagonist's fealty to Dagda is questioned as they navigate a dangerous path, leaving players to wonder if Dagda is merely an opportunistic lesser god or part of a grander scheme. The game offers a compelling narrative filled with moral dilemmas and supernatural elements.

Shin Megami Tensei IV: Apocalypse is a hell of a mess. At moments, the complex and fun combat and progression systems break through the game’s ick presentation and sexist character designs, but what little fun exists gradually fades before you’re even halfway through the campaign. If you’re a fan of the series, there’s plenty to love here, but Apocalypse is unforgiving for any new players.
