Soul Hackers 2, an unexpected addition to the Megami Tensei universe, has been announced by Atlus. It will release on August 26 for PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, and Steam.
Notably, Soul Hackers 2 will not be released on Nintendo Switch. A rather odd development, since Atlus released Shin Megami Tensei V exclusively on Nintendo's hybrid console.
