Raidou Remastered: The Mystery of the Soulless Army combines a unique setting with a good mix of action and exploration thrown in. If you want something different from the Persona series without worrying about a timer and trying to cram as much activity into a day as possible then Raidou Remastered: The Mystery of the Soulless Army could be the game you are looking for to take off the edge.

RAIDOU Remastered: The Mystery of The Soulless Army succeeds in staying true to the original 2005 game, bringing some quality-of-life improvements and new content without significantly altering the original experience. Although combat remains the weakest aspect of the paranormal detective's first solo adventure, RAIDOU Remastered does a great job of introducing the franchise to a new generation of fans while welcoming back longtime followers who have been waiting for the series return.

Raidou Remastered: The Mystery of the Soulless Army is a wonderful retread of a forgotten classic, smartly polishing up its best parts and modifying its worst parts to make for an overall more enjoyable experience. Though the visuals are just 'okay' and the detective gameplay can be a bit plain, the action-packed combat, reworked demon fusion, and interesting story all come together to make for a gripping adventure.I'd recommend you pick this one up if you're curious and you think it may be up your alley. I've never played anything quite like Raidou, and it offers a very unique take not just on the standard SMT formula, but action RPGs on the whole.

RAIDOU Remastered: The Mystery of the Soulless Army is an excellent remaster of one of the best forgotten PS2 classics and one of the brightest gems in Atlus' catalog. The gameplay, visuals, and quality of life improvements elevate the game and make it even more of a must-have for fans of the genre.

RAIDOU Remastered: The Mystery of the Soulless Army, readers, really managed to fulfill its goal of modernizing a classic title that, given the time it was released, is still very fun to play.

Raidou Remastered: The Mystery of the Soulless Army is another solid update to Atlus's long-running Shin Megami Tensei franchise. Raidou Remastered overhauls the combat system for modern players and includes plenty of quality of life upgrades. It's a nice addition for those looking for a more supernatural detective story set in the Tensei universe.
Push Square - Robert Ramsey - 8 / 10
Raidou Remastered gives one of Atlus' most experimental PS2 outings a deserved second chance. Better described as a remake, a huge list of improvements, including a superbly reworked combat system, make this a must-try for the developer's modern audience. Raidou remains a uniquely weird and compelling action RPG, and this is its definitive form.

RAIDOU Remastered: The Mystery of the Soulless Army brings the trench coat back in black: with smoother controls, quality of life improvements and even more demons to make Lucifer sweat.
