More a remake than anything, Raidou Remastered breathes new life into one of SMT’s best spinoffs — even if some of the warts are still there. Raidou makes fantastic use of its unique setting and aesthetic, tying its demonic world into a historical Japan. Exploring the dingy streets of Tokyo makes this world feel alive, even if it doesn’t feel as mysterious as the original game did. Those changes are, by and large, good, but it’s undeniable that some of the original game’s charm gets sanded off in the process. 8/10Raidou Remastered: The Mystery of the Soulless Army launches on June 19 for PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, and PC.
