### 4/5 — Awesome game

*2026-07-22, version 9.2.00*

Awesome game with the coolest ar feature but not very ftp friendly

### 2/5 — The archive is lost

*2026-06-05, version 9.1.10*

It's just that I didn't log in for a while and lost it. It's too bad.

### 4/5 — Collab

*2026-03-29, version 9.0.30*

Game is great would love to see a collab like berserk or evengalion

### 4/5 — Collab

*2026-01-17, version 8.3.40*

Game is awesome I would love to see a Berserk collab or evangelion collab

### 3/5 — Im leaving

*2025-11-11, version 8.3.10*

Game is pretty good but ima wait til they drop a collab event, til then Im not playing anymore

### 4/5 — Future Updates

*2025-11-10, version 8.3.10*

I really wish the developers would just add the version of Satan from Shin Megami Tensei IV Apocalypse and Shin Megami Tensei V Vengeance.

### 3/5 — Game prediction of EOS

*2025-10-17, version 8.3.01*

This game is now dropping mc from smt mainline series it’s only a matter of time till the end of service hits

### 3/5 — Annoying and Expensive

*2025-09-12*

I swear to god if I get one more mandatory hand-holding tutorial about how to press a button I'm going to throw my phone through a wall.

### 1/5 — Suspended?

*2025-09-09, version 8.2.30*

My account was suspended for NO reason!

### 1/5 — Decent but nothing like the original

*2025-08-26, version 8.2.20*

The game is decent for what it is but when compared to the older pc game that got shutdown it is a let down. There is no real community or customization. In the pc version it felt like the demons you trained and worked with were companions like pokemon. The social factor was better too with customized outfits, marketplace, and common third areas

### 4/5 — Some questions

*2025-08-13, version 8.2.20*

When will romance be a feature? Will this and Persona Phantom X have a collab where we can get Persona characters on here?

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — A monument to greed and incompetence

*2026-07-22*

There is a new demon with a .03% pull rate. You will not win in PVP without it. PVP is the main way to get currency. The new demon will be rendered obsolete in 2 weeks. 

There will be countless server errors when the new meta demon is released because god forbid you'd think ahead and get more server capacity before release. 

I have not even touched the debacle that is Aura Gate 0. 

I want to love this game but it does its best to make me loathe it.

### 1/5 — New update makes it unplayable

*2026-07-22, version 9.2.00*

Connection error, random Japanese error, random error that had no text, got in once and I couldn’t close the events pop up so had to restart, now it just won’t open at all.

### 1/5 — Oh this game still exists?

*2026-05-05, version 9.1.01*

Who are the rich guys still paying for this game?
The game is out of balance, dull boring playing. Lots of things to change though.

### 1/5 — I hate this dialogue cutscene

*2026-04-02, version 9.0.30*

I can’t skip the dialogue and no voice acting

### 1/5 — like pissing out kidney stones but without the relief

*2026-03-22, version 9.0.20*

i hope there’s a special level of hell for gacha game balance teams

### 1/5 — A complete scam

*2025-12-03, version 8.3.30*

A total scam where you spend 2 $70 packs to get a banner character only to get nothing. It’s insulting the level of disrespect this game has for its userbase, I hate it

### 1/5 — Great game with bad design.

*2025-11-18, version 8.3.20*

This game login does not have the feature to be link with other application such as Google, Apple , email and etc. They only have a transfer ID feature with only username and password to transfer the game data to another device. Lost my transfer ID during the process of changing devices and write in to the customer service with the apple payment purchase receipt. Guess what is their response? They told me that they cannot investigate the payment I made in App Store and cannot find my game data and request me to provide a lot of information such as game name, ID, characters I owned, etc. to prove my identity of the account. Hello?? What is the order ID of the apple payment purchase for, if it not tied to my game account and data in your game? You expect people to remember the details (characters, monsters name, etc) when the issue happen a month ago?

### 1/5 — Game is unplayable

*2025-11-13, version 8.3.20*

New events force “cuts scenes” with no SKIP option block the screen when you boot up the app. 3 minutes of button (screen) mashing to speed it up and they’re STILL TALKING?! 

You want players to spend money but won’t allow them to play! #fail

### 1/5 — Forced “cutscene” convo disables game

*2025-11-07, version 8.3.10*

Make em jump thru hoops to use the freemium app

### 1/5 — Loading Problems

*2025-10-15, version 8.3.00*

This is ridiculous I can’t even start the game anymore.

### 5/5 — Still a MegaTen Game

*2026-07-13, version 9.1.30*

Been a fan of MegaTen games since Nocturne. Above all, I love the OST and steady drip of new designs for all the figures of myth. As for gameplay, it’s the classic formula - until you get to the higher ranks in competitive play. The usual considerations for damage resistance and weakness becomes moot as all the meta-characters have pierce, swapping demons mid-fight isn’t a function, and the innate abilities that made weaker demons viable in SMTV’s recent remake limit the scope of effective team builds. Aside from the sweaty ranked matches, the game is fun and offers a story that mainline SMT fans will enjoy and offers plenty of free resources to help get new players up to speed - you’re only ever a few pulls away from a good team anyway and your odds are as good as anyone else’s with that. Not to mention you’ll be bankrolling SMT6. Not a bad deal.

### 5/5 — Collabs needed!

*2026-05-02, version 9.1.01*

Game is great would love to see a collab like berserk or evengalion

### 5/5 — Amo demais

*2026-04-09*

Nota 1000

### 5/5 — My Favorite Mobile Game

*2026-03-29, version 9.0.30*

I legit enjoy this game to no end and the Shin Megami Tensei deep cuts keep coming.  Not to mention the really interesting collabs they get are great.

### 5/5 — I Iove this game but gotta fix duel

*2025-12-25, version 8.3.40*

In duel a lot of players are complaining and even I’m a witness to it press turns icons not being consumed and glitches and bugs all across the board on fights that shoulda been won

### 5/5 — Great game

*2025-12-17, version 8.3.40*

Tied with p5x for best non pc megaten game

### 5/5 — ATLUS please buff daddy Loup Garou

*2025-12-17, version 8.3.40*

Buff Loup Daddyrou please ATLUS I’m begging you please

### 5/5 — I have suggestions for you to add

*2025-11-07, version 8.3.10*

Nemissa the demon from soul hackers Nintendo 3ds game

### 5/5 — I love this game

*2025-10-24, version 8.3.01*

I love the demon hunter anime game

### 5/5 — Fun game; solid storytelling; beware gacha pressure

*2025-08-11*

A fun game with genuinely underrated story- and character-writing (for the most part, anyways… looking at you, Ririn). The gacha elements are unfortunately quite predatory, but you can somewhat viably build up currency as a F2P player as long as you’re patient and participate in faction events. I play daily and likely will until EoS.
