Game Tips: Should You Buy the Shin Megami Tensei V Vengeance Digital Deluxe Edition?

Here's how the Shin Megami Tensei V Vengeance DLC affects the game and whether it's worth the extra cost.

In the tradition of many modern games, Shin Megami Tensei V Vengeance offers two different versions of the game to purchase.

The base game costs $59.99 USD and contains the additional demon subquest DLC packs that were made available for the original 2021 release.

The Digital Deluxe Edition costs $69.99 USD and includes:

  • Two new demon subquests
  • Three DLC packs that can increase the appearance rate of rare Mitama enemies

What's in the Subquests?

The two new subquests included in the Digital Deluxe edition are:

  • Sakura Cinders of the East
  • Holy Will and Profane Dissent

Both of these can be unlocked relatively early in the game, but you'll likely need to level up a bit to complete them.

Sakura Cinders of the East recommends you reach level 47 first, whereas Holy Will and Profane Dissent recommends level 75.

These quests feature new boss battles:

  • Konohana Sakura in Sakura Cinders of the East
  • Dagda in Holy Will and Profane Dissent

After defeating these foes, they'll join your party for free regardless of your current level.

What Do the Mitama DLC Packs Do?

The Digital Deluxe version also includes three Mitama-related packs:

  • Mitama Dance of Wealth
  • Mitama Dance of Miracles
  • Mitama Dance of EXP

Mitama are rare enemies that drop valuable loot when you defeat them, including EXP, money, and Glory (the game's equivalent of skill points).

With the Mitama DLC packs turned on, the appearance rates of these enemies increase significantly.

These packs make grinding much faster in Shin Megami Tensei V.

However, this can skew the game's balance towards being too easy.

You can toggle these three DLC packs off from the in-game main menu.

Is the Digital Deluxe Version Worth the Extra $10?

If you're certain you want all the DLC in Shin Megami Tensei V Vengeance, it's better to get the Digital Deluxe version.

The two subquest DLCs cost $5 each, and the Mitama packs are $3 each.

That's $19 all together, or you can get an All-In-One bundle for $15.

Otherwise, the Digital Deluxe version primarily exists to make the game easier, which players can already do via the in-game difficulty settings.

The Mitama packs, in particular, hurt the overall experience by letting you level up too fast.

Shin Megami Tensei V Vengeance is a fantastic game.

If you'd like to show Atlus extra support and enjoy a couple of extra demons as fanservice, the choice is yours.

Just make sure to tune up the difficulty higher than you normally would.
