Soul Sacrifice Delta is an extended cut of 2013's well-received Vita game where every decision has consequential results. The action RPG that pits you against an evil sorcerer returns with a slew of new features including improvements to gameplay, graphics, new levels, characters and spells. The most notable addition to the series is the introduction of a new faction -- Grim -- and the ability to choose a third option of "Fate" on top of "Sacrifice" or "Save."

New bosses and lore primarily stem from Grimm's Fairy tales, adding Little Red Riding Hood & The Big Bad Wolf, Snow White & the Seven Dwarves, Cinderella & The Foot Fetishist, Hansel & Gretel, the Frog Prince and other mythological monsters such as Succubi and Chimera. New AI and moves will be added to the vanilla monsters.

Regarding the data transfer limits from SS:
- Up to 10 offerings of one type.
- Up to 10 Souls/Sprits of one type.
- You can transfer most of the outfits (no details on the transfer screen).
- The "Angel" forbidden art can't be transferred.
- Up to 10000 tears can be transferred.
- Name is transferred.
- Level IS NOT transferred, but you get "Rumor pages" to increase the xp gain.
- There are limits for quests but it's A LOT of text.
- Seals unlocked in the previous game are unlocked once you reach a certain part in the storyline.

Seriously though that is awesome.

isn't "Greatness Awaits" PS4 Slogan?

HassanJamal · Apr 14, 2014

Finally, no date though. And people doubted this was going to get localized.

nampad · Apr 14, 2014

The trailer reminded me how gret the story was. I hate these expanded releases but I think I'll get SS Delta anyway.

Are they going to censor and rewrite everything for the western release again

fantastic news once again for the west along with the Freedom Wars announcement.

Now as someone else was saying all they need next is God Eater 2. Keep up the release onslaught!

Vita being just an extension for the PS4 confirmed

once again.

Phanatic8390 · Apr 14, 2014

So is this significant enough an upgrade that I should hold off on starting the original? I downloaded it while it was on PS plus but never started it.

Agent White · Apr 14, 2014

excite!

GalacticToast · Apr 14, 2014

Oh man, can't wait! I loved the vanilla version.

The original is a solid game if you can deal with some grinding.

Yes it is. Might as well hold off since delta has all the content of the original plus more. The story is fantastic too for a dark fantasy setting personally.

maouvin · Apr 14, 2014

erpg, it's coming on May 13 on the US. Should add it to the OP.

ramyeon · Apr 14, 2014

May 14 release date for EU, not long to wait.

I can't contain myself right now. had a ton of fun with the original. hope some of my old soul sacrifice peeps pick this up too.

That's just a month away! (I sound like a captain obvious

)
Any info if it will be standalone only, or we will be able to purchase it as a dlc/addon?

silver.tongue · Apr 14, 2014

I rregret waiting so long to play the first one.

It's incredibly addicting.

Day one digital for this.

I would be shocked if the distribution was different to Japan.

It'll be standalone only although I don't see it being full price.

Tizoc · Apr 14, 2014

Do owners of SS digitally get the option to pay a small fee to upgrade their game to Delta?

I hope it's bit cheaper than full price.

Nope, it was a standalone release in Japan and seems to be the same in the west.

Ryuukan · Apr 14, 2014

Release in a month? is this digital only?

Infinite Justice · Apr 14, 2014

finally.

gonna wait until its cheaper though (already have the original, with content not touched as yet aka all those DLCs)

This! otherwise It down to sales bin for this game. Oreshika and FW gets my money day one.

Waiting for PS Plus then in my case~

web01 · Apr 14, 2014

Please have a retail release.

chickdigger802 · Apr 14, 2014

what are the core gameplay changes?

if i didn't really enjoy the demo (combat didn't feel that great) will the changes be substantial enough to warrant a pickup?

Probably not.

They're substantial enough for fans to play it again, but if you didn't like the core gameplay this isn't going to change your mind.

Takao · Apr 14, 2014

Is this a digital-only release? One month's notice isn't exactly much.

Jawmuncher · Apr 14, 2014

Looks like I need to start playing some Soul Sacrifice so I can transport my save.

I'm hoping all those Spanish retailer listings ring true.

Where was this confirmed? In Asia region this was also released as addon content for vanilla SS. Maybe this can also happen here.

krossj · Apr 14, 2014

I'm in if the content seems worth it. From the import impressions and the that list it seems like it is. Quite surprised they only announced it a month out.

No, that didn't happen.

If you're talking about this tweet, it's just a stupendous mis-read. Those are Delta microtransactions to create your own pact and 3RM is something like 20 US cents.

Considering that most folks would be familiar with the previous version, thankfully they dont have to do too much marketing ahead of time is what Id see it as. So as long as they have trailers that focus on what the new content is in Delta they should be good to go.

Its not as if they need to start a whole new marketing campaign is what Im trying to say, which needs of course more time.

It wasn't? My source was this reddit thread.

Edit: Too late. Oh well! Guess a good sale on this and I will grab this as I paid full price for digital day one and dont feel like splurging again.

Alric · Apr 14, 2014

Awesome, can't wait. Been playing some Soul Sacrifice again lately and excited for some better resolution and new content.

hayguyz · Apr 14, 2014

dam reminds me I kneed to get back to playing the Original one i got from PS+

Redhood · Apr 14, 2014

Does this game has Player v/s player online? I read somewhere this had it before release but after that no update on this.

Only co-op play I do believe. Have the game and dont recall any sort of H2H mode. Main site (JP) one only talks of co-op also.

Freedom Wars is the one with PVP.
