In a Slipknot featuring instagram reel it seems like Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance is coming to Xbox Game Pass.

In an Instagram reel on atlus_west’s Instagram page a collab between Slipknot the band and the developer has seemingly linked that Shin Megami Tensei V is coming to Game Pass. Official artwork running along the bottom of the Instagram reel lists Nintendo Switch, PS4, PS5, Xbox, Windows, Steam, and… Game Pass!

How did Persona 3 Reload do on Xbox?

 

[Cyberpunkd]

The newest Spliknot trailer collab

 

[mrcroket]

Wow! I love this marriage between atlus and gamepass

 

[Arsic]

If so they just saved me a purchase. Hoping it’s true day one on pc.

 

[Big Baller]

Cmon now dawg, I bought it for Xbox!

 

[Thick Thighs Save Lives]

Hmm....

Your fault for buying things on Xbox.

 

[Gamer_By_Proxy]

I'm sure all 3 people that will play it on GamePass will be thrilled.

 

[Topher]

Apparently I am one of three people who will play it on Game Pass.

I'm thrilled.

 

[amigastar]

That`s good to hear. I always wanted trying it out, i hope this includes PC also.

 

[FoxMcChief]

Very cool. Saved me a purchase.

Thanks Big Daddy Phil.

 

[Mr Hyde]

Slipknot?

I'm one of them thanks.

Same. I purchased the original on Switch, so I was going to wait for a deep sale to play this. Now I’m definitely playing it day 1

How did Persona 3 Reload do on Xbox?

24th on the Xbox most played list during launch week.

Persona 3 Reloaded: Breaking into the Xbox "Most Played" List!

Persona 3 Reloaded lands an impressive spot on the Xbox "Most Played" list, surprising gamers and challenging genre stereotypes.

That said, I actually think I might play it on GP and grab the physical later on for PS5 since Atlus didn't bother to offer the Launch Version with the Steel Book at the retailers I buy my games from.

 

[SEGAvangelist]

Guess I'll be refunding my preorder!

MS pays them upfront. Atlus gets a big fat check, and MS gets the game.
Works much better for them, instead of trying the sale method considering how bad Xbox is on Japan.

 

[Gamer_By_Proxy]

Well I counted all 3. All slots taken.

 

[Big Baller]

Your fault for buying things on Xbox.

I support Atlus

 

[vaibhavpisal]

Was going to buy it. I guess I will play it via gamepass then.

Though, for real, this game will likely sit indefinitely in backlog, long enough to leave from gamepass. So I will eventually end up buying it anyways.

Just like how it happened with Persona 5.

 

[Darsxx82]

Gamepass certainly isn't stopping....

On the other hand, it is already clear that the SEGA-MS relationship could not be closer.

 

[feynoob]

I support Atlus

With gamepass, your bought Xbox games belongs to that service.

 

[adamsapple]

Apparently I am one of three people who will play it on Game Pass.

I'm thrilled.

I'm the other 2.

 

[Thief1987]

Well, another game I won't buy until it's free. Hope SEGA execs enjoy their money while they can, not that much time left for them.

 

[adamsapple]

Very nice of Sega to do this before CoD comes out, since I've read that MS are killing Game Pass then.

[Chukhopops]

I guess MS is happy with the engagement they got out of Atlus games.

Already finished the Switch base version, glad more people will be able to enjoy this masterpiece (although 4:A is better imo).

 

[Danjin44]

Already finished the Switch base version

The Vengeance is going to new story route….this is why they also included the original story from Switch version, at beginning of the you can choose new story or the old story.

Similar how Dissidia 012 included original campaign.

How did Persona 3 Reload do on Xbox?

It really doesn't matter because even on other systems it sells like most niche games tend to do. I got to enjoy it for like $12 instead of $75 because I know a Golden/Royal version is coming.

For this game, couldn't hurt to sample it to a new section of gamers that wouldn't otherwise ever play it.

 

[ManaByte]

They posted a Reel on IG promoting a new Slipknot collab and the video showed it coming to Game Pass.

 

[Dirk Benedict]

I'm more-so puzzled over the Slipknot collaboration.

 

[TintoConCasera]

What's that about a Slipknot x Atlus collab?

So cool I can play at launch on my sub and then buy it later on PS.

I’m more puzzled of the Gamepass slip, not the collaboration.

Post apocalyptic twink simulator.

A great game in a series that bros miss out on.

 

[Tarnpanzer]

Are these standalone storywise?

 

[Bumblebeetuna]

This is like the fourth game I have seen recently do a collab with Slipknot. DbD did one, I’m pretty sure Smite did. Forgot the other.

I think I like maybe four of their songs.

Post apocalyptic

twink simulator.

 

[Danjin44]

What is Shin Megami Tensei V

Persona series is spin-off of these games

 

[Unknown?]

Exactly. Might as well put it on gamepass, Xbox owners don't know what this is.

 

[Bumblebeetuna]

I own everything though. Just not into Japanese games. I guess I’ll check it out since it’s on GP. Probably play for an hour and delete like Persona.
