Atlus announced Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey, a first-person science fiction RPG for Nintendo DS. A startlingly original entry in the Shin Megami Tensei universe, Strange Journey takes the heralded RPG franchise to exciting new frontiers.

In the near future, a mysterious, growing, black void appears at the Earth's southern pole. Unable to determine its cause and powerless to stop its deadly encroachment, humanity sends an elite team of explorers into the heart of the phenomenon, just as Strange Journey's look and feel represent a return to the heart of Shin Megami Tensei, bringing to mind the all-time classic Nocturne. With over 300 demons to bribe, coerce, and negotiate with to gain assistance in battle, Strange Journey is every bit the deep, rewarding RPG experience fans have come to expect from the SMT franchise, yet delivered with a fresh new sci-fi story that taps into mature themes of morality and introspection.

Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey for Nintendo DS is currently scheduled for release in Spring 2010. For more information, visit the official website: http://www.atlus.com/strangejourney
