Story:Shin Megami Tensei: Nine was published by Atlus and released on Xbox, exclusively in Japan, in 2002.
Forming part of the Megami Tensei series, Nine takes place in the period of time between Shin Megami Tensei and its sequel, with the survivors of Tokyo's destruction sheltering in underground bunkers. Taking on the role of a debugger, the player navigates the Idea Space virtual world set up by the survivors of Tokyo's destruction, which has come under attack by demonic beings called "noise". The gameplay has the player navigating a customized avatar in third-person through the virtual world of Tokyo, battling enemies using a real-time command-based battle system. Despite its title, it is the eighth game in the Megami Tensei series. The game's title instead refers to the number of possible moral alignments available to players.Show more

Why Shin Megami Tensei: Nine Needs to Be on GOG
Shin Megami Tensei: Nine is one of the most obscure and fascinating entries in the SMT franchise — an Xbox-exclusive title released only in Japan in 2002. It was originally planned as an ambitious online RPG before being reworked into a single-player experience. Despite its limited release and niche appeal, it represents a crucial moment in Atlus history and deserves a second life on a global, DRM-free platform like GOG.
Why does it need to be on GOG? First, preservation. SMT: Nine is a lost relic of a bold experiment. Its cyberpunk themes, unique morality system, and early-2000s aesthetic make it a time capsule of the franchise’s willingness to take risks. GOG is the perfect home for forgotten classics and cult gems — and Nine fits that description perfectly.
Second, it’s an important piece of the Megami Tensei universe. It’s set after SMT II and explores deep philosophical ideas about reality, identity, and the digital future — themes that have only become more relevant. With GOG’s global reach, a long-overdue localization or fan-backed preservation effort could finally bring this game to a broader audience.
Lastly, it’s a tribute to fans who’ve supported Atlus through the years. Releasing SMT: Nine on GOG would show respect for the history of one of gaming’s most enduring RPG franchises — giving new players a chance to experience a hidden chapter, and longtime fans a way to revisit it, without needing a Japanese Xbox from 2002.
I’ll be honest. I can’t share memories of it because I could never get it to run on emulation since this game is like a minefield of crashes. This game being brought to GOG with a proper English patch and to run without crashes would go a long way from freeing it from its curse of being a japanese only Xbox game.
