Atlus has announced the first Shin Megami Tensei concert ever to be performed in the US. Many video games have soundtracks that their fan bases love, with some featuring iconic bits of music that most players can recognize. These compositions can be a very important part of the experience when playing a game, as they add a good amount of depth and atmosphere to them.

Oftentimes developers will hold concerts that allow gamers to hear these pieces in a live setting. Franchises such as Pokemon have had events where players were able to experience the music live, making them very special shows. One such concert has been announced and will feature an RPG series that has gained a lot of popularity over the years since its inception.
