Shin Megami Tensei – The Roleplaying Game: Tokyo Conception is finally available to preorder for $49 at Amazon ahead of its September 10 release. The tabletop RPG originally released in Japan in 1993 and has seen numerous editions and revisions in the years since, but this marks the first English localization. Tabletop RPG adaptations of video games tend to sell out quickly at Amazon, so we’d recommend placing your order for the hardcover book soon.
The English version, titled Shin Megami Tensei: The Roleplaying Game – Tokyo Conception, is based on the world and gameplay concepts of Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne. The game melds elements of Nocture’s setting and gameplay–such as demon negotiations, elemental magic, and competing factions–into a tabletop experience based around dice rolls and character sheets.
Shin Megami Tensei: The Role Playing Game – Tokyo Conception be available in three versions, including a $50 hardcover edition, a $30 digital PDF, and a $60 bundle that includes both. The rulebook contains all the necessary information you need to play, including the full rules, stat tables for demons, and background information on the setting and lore of Shin Megami Tensi. All three versions also include a PDF version of the White Vortex mini campaign.
Shin Megami Tensei: The Roleplaying Game – Tokyo Conception is the fourth edition of the tabletop RPG and is based on the world and gameplay concepts of Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne. It originally launched in Japan back in September 2004 and was followed up by an expansion, Mala Underground, a few months later. Whether the expansion will also receive an English release, or if it is already part of the English version’s core rulebook, remains to be seen. The game’s fifth and latest edition, Shin Megami Tensei TRPG Mato Tokyo 200X, was released in Japan in 2005 but does not seem to be a part of the English release either.
This isn’t the only exciting Shin Megami book release on the horizon. Persona 5 + Persona 5 Royal: Official Design Works launches on November 26 and is available to preorder for a discounted price at Amazon.
