Shin Megami Tensei 5: Complete Edition to be Announced Soon – Rumour
Shin Megami Tensei 5 launched for the Nintendo Switch to widespread acclaim nearly a couple of years ago, and as Atlus often does with its major releases, the developer seems to be gearing up to return to the RPG and bring it back with an expanded re-release.

The bottom left of this panel also includes a picture of Stephen Hawking cropped on, which is a reference to recurring SMT character Stephen, who’s based on the scientist himself. Stephen was not featured in Shin Megami Tensei 5, and this leak might be hinting at his involvement in the purported Complete Edition.
The second panel, meanwhile, shows red text on a screen, repeatedly reading “Complete Edition” in Japanese.
