Pay coins to be revived in Shin Megami Tensei IV

Game coins, of course. To the order of the Styx ferryman.

Famitsu this week has a few new details on Shin Megami Tensei IV.

When you die, you can pay the Styx ferryman money or game coins to be revived. After dying a certain number of times, you’ll be given the option to choose a simpler degree of difficulty. (The game’s friendly way of telling you you’re terrible.)

Also mentioned (though I’m pretty sure we previously covered this), battles use the “Press Turn System,” which allows players to perform a certain number of actions. There is also an element where the set number increases when you attack the enemy’s weak spots.

Shin Megami Tensei IV is due out for 3DS this year in Japan.

Thanks, Sokuho@Hokanko.
