Atlus has revealed that its upcoming DS sci-fi RPG, Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey, will feature a demon password system, allowing players to generate and exchange codes representing their customized demons.

Due to the game’s in-depth demon management system, which includes the ability to level, specialize, and uniquely fuse demons for use in battle, players can eventually craft a distinct party of rare demons for use in their mission to save Earth. Through this system, all of those important leveling and customization decisions can be provided to fellow Strange Journey players through easily exchanged passwords. Need a powerful chaos-aligned demon with fire attacks? A friend with just such a member in their party could generate a unique password that, when entered into the demon compendium, will unlock said demon for the player.

Atlus will also release a very limited number of passwords for use in the demon compendium which will unlock rare, otherwise inaccessible demons. Fans are encouraged to be on the look-out for these finite codes, as they may not necessarily all come at the same time or even from the same source. More details about these passwords will be released as the game’s spring launch approaches.
