This is probably a couple of years away at least, but I'll definitely pick it up.
As an Atlus newcomer, the only game I played from that company is Persona 4 for the PS2. Can you come into any SMT game without having to know the plot of the previous games?
Considering how the headlining demon in this announcement is the Odin from SMT4A rather than the older Kaneko one which was in fact used in Persona 5, I wouldn't hold my breath.

Welp, I have been told things from a source and he is usually right.
Take with a grain of salt:
-This proyect started as a PS4 game some years ago.
-Now is PS4/Switch.
-Nintendo and Atlus have been in talks of a timed exclusivity deal.
I really trust this guy so thats why I post this.
Normally I'd agree, but his usual design looks really good in Persona 5.New Odin is cooler though. Glad they have enough resources to get him a worthy 3d model .
Current speculation I've seen is that Atlus USA is just all hands on deck for P5, so they haven't been free to work on other games. At the very least, Hardin didn't know anything about it a few weeks ago.I actually haven't followed EO5, was a reason ever given for it's lack of localization?
Please don't turn into another bait and switch like #FE

I found this helpful guide a few months ago on Reddit I think.
There are a bunch of valid entry points into the series, it's more a question of deciding what genre of game and level of difficulty you'd feel more comfortable with.

Nocturne is still considered the best in the series but it lacks the cutscenes/story sequences found in FF games and the Persona series.
Also if you have a 3DS, SMT IV is a great place to start.

Could this possibly be "Deviliser"? Atlus trademarked that name like 2-3 years ago.
Please don't be exclusive. If this was even SMT 5 and it was exclusive to the Switch, that would be a colossal disaster.

Same. Really well made trailer!I'm not even a fan of the series, but that trailer was lit. Creepy as fuck. I'll probably try, yet again, to get into it.
They could have made this a 3DS/Switch game and i dont think anyone would have blamed them. Im really proud of Atlus showing the confidence to get away from the 3DS and go full HD.

Like most have said already, almost all of the entries are stand alone aside from the few sequels like DDS 1 & 2 and Devil Summoner/survivor 1 & 2.
Highly recommend starting with either (all PS2 and available on PSN for PS3):
SMT III Nocturne
Persona 3 FES
Or the Digital Devil Saga
Persona 3 has been my favorite but DDS is a really good entry point into the series as it is sort of like Atlus making a SMT Final Fantasy game, complete with tons of story scenes and multiple party members. Nocturne is still considered the best in the series but it lacks the cutscenes/story sequences found in FF games and the Persona series.
Also if you have a 3DS, SMT IV is a great place to start.

Where's EO5 though tbh
Not by everyone. I've seen a good amount of people treat it like the black sheep of the series even moreso than Strange Journey. Though this was before Apocalypse was even announced, so maybe they've switched focus to that.Nocturne is still considered the best in the series but it lacks the cutscenes/story sequences found in FF games and the Persona series.

Pretty sure they said they just started working on Caligula.Probably not just P5, but everything else they've been working on until now, including Caligula.

He might write the scenario like in IV(A) but that Odin is designed by Masayuki Doi.The pedals

(I hope Dagda will return as well.)
Scenario Drafts in SMT IV and Story Setting in SMT 4 Apocalypse (might just mean since the story takes place in 4's setting).Kaneko wrote the scenario?

I see. Sorry bout that.I have the SMTIV artbook. It's pretty clear about what Kaneko did on it. Scenario drafts doesn't mean he wrote the story. He came up with base concepts for a setting, and then the team made everything else while consulting him from time to time with regards to certain designs or the direction of the project and he would go "uh huh".
Kaneko most definitely did not write the scenario.

Mods? So i'm guessing the guy on the previous page's claims, or atleast his source has been verified?
Great news if true.
Well it would be nice if they aren't ambiguous to the timed exclusivity. I'd be fine with that as long they say from the beginning that it will come to PS4 too.
