Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor Overclocked Arriving A Week Early in Europe
Posted by Andy Green
Will now be available on 29th March
Not so long ago we reported that Ghostlight would be publishing Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor Overclocked in Europe on 5th April. Yet it seems that the publisher is pretty eager to get the game out into the wild, and has now confirmed it will be released on 29th March - a whole week early.
Considering it's a JRPG, Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor Overclocked is unlikely to sell millions of copies, but there's arguably a solid market out there in Europe for games such as this. Atlus published it in North America but declined to do so in Europe; fortunately Ghostlight picked up the gauntlet.
Anyone who enjoys an immersive JRPG will get a lot out of this one; we rated it highly in our Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor Overclocked review.
Are you looking forward to finally picking this one up, Europe? Let us know in the comments section below.

While I really want this game, the timing isn't good with Fire Emblem, Etrian Odyssey and Code of princess just around the corner.

I'll get because:
A) it is a great game
B) if it sells well we might get more atlus games. Thanks to the stupid region lock is more important than ever. Radiant Historia is a great game which I can play because of ds' free region.

Well, Unfortunately I won't be able to play it on the 29th, as I can't find a retailer that has it in Australia, and by the time it comes from the UK, Fire Emblem will be here.. oh the dilemma..

Yeah, the timing is not good but I think I'll pick it up before it becomes too rare...
Besides, it is a good way to show that we'd welcome any Atlus game in the future.

It's insane how long it takes some of these games to make the jump to Europe. I wonder why Atlus doesn't have a European branch...

The word "early" is horribly misused in the title. Just sayin'.

Fire Emblem is probably the reason it would be released early.

I look forward to getting this along with a new 3DS for my birthday in April. If you pre-order from Ghostlight's website you can get two free posters.

I have not played this game yet. I can find the original cheaper than the overclocked. Should i get it? Or is overclocked worth more?

@Doma
That would be Devil Survivor 2 only for DS.
@Maverick
Get overclocked. Though the 3D effect is minimal, having the 8th day added to the story and additional demons is worth it.
