Strange Journey doesn't look that strange now that I've had the chance to lay eyes on it. Atlus continues their slow reveal of their next full Shin Megami Tensei game in several video clips. True to their style, don't expect these clips to show you very much. It'll be just enough to tempt you.
The first video after the jump lays out the story. You'll see specialized vechicles speeding through the snow in Antarctica. In these vehicles are a special team comprised of members from different nations. Their goal is to explore a wasteland that appears there.
A couple of other videos show a bit of the first-person dungeon exploration in Strange Journey. They both cut off right before the action stops, but it's pretty clear that the battles also follow the first person view. The last video? It's not much. It just shows the naming of the main character -- they pick "Atlus Hero."
Hey, Atlus USA: I'm lookin' at you.

How will my five letter name and seven letter sir name fit.
But these SMT games are pretty much stand-alone aren't they?
@TheNomadicTroll I thought that exact same thing.
