RAIDOU Remastered: The Mystery of the Soulless Army Announced for Nintendo Switch Release in June 2025

ATLUS, the renowned Japanese developer behind the acclaimed Shin Megami Tensei series, has officially announced RAIDOU Remastered: The Mystery of the Soulless Army during the latest Nintendo Direct presentation.

This highly anticipated remaster breathes new life into the second installment of the Devil Summoner series, a cult-classic supernatural RPG that originally debuted on PlayStation 2.

RAIDOU Remastered: The Mystery of the Soulless Army is set to launch worldwide for Nintendo Switch on June 19, 2025.

Nintendo fans can secure their copy early, as digital pre-orders are now available on the Switch eShop. For many players, the Devil Summoner series is a storied extension of the broader Shin Megami Tensei universe, blending detective noir themes with supernatural elements.

In this remastered edition, players step into the shoes of Raidou Kuzunoha XIV, an apprentice detective whose expertise in conversing with—and recruiting—demons sets the narrative apart from traditional RPG fare.

Tasked with unraveling cases across a bustling capital city, Raidou faces off against the enigmatic Soulless Army in an adventure that elegantly merges mystery and the paranormal. According to ATLUS, the remaster is designed to deliver a superior modern experience.

Updates include overhauled visuals, enhanced quality-of-life features, fully re-recorded voiceovers, and a reimagined battle system, promising to attract both returning veterans and a new audience.

"The beloved supernatural action RPG from ATLUS returns! Experience the story of Raidou Kuzunoha XIV, apprentice detective and Devil Summoner.

Undertake the case of the century and uncover the secrets of the Soulless Army with the aid of your demons.

With revamped visuals, quality of life updates, new voiceover, and an overhauled battle system, an exciting and unexpected journey awaits both veterans and newcomers alike," summarized ATLUS in its official statement. While the Devil Summoner franchise may not command the same mainstream attention as the Persona series, many fans prize its unique blend of classic RPG mechanics and innovative storytelling.

This remaster not only preserves the game's legacy but also incorporates thoughtful improvements, allowing Nintendo Switch owners to experience a key chapter in the Shin Megami Tensei lineage. With its June 2025 release date coinciding with a busy summer for Nintendo Switch titles, RAIDOU Remastered: The Mystery of the Soulless Army looks to offer both nostalgia-driven appeal and fresh gameplay innovation.

For long-time ATLUS enthusiasts and newcomers seeking a fresh twist on supernatural RPG adventures, this title is set to become a highlight on the Switch eShop.
