Atlus West shared a behind-the-scenes look collaboration showcasing the making of demon-inspired masks for Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance in partnership with Slipknot mask maker Jim Ojala. Released on May 28, 2024, the video delves into the process of crafting masks inspired by Daemon, Gurulu, and Loup-Garou, three demons who appeared in this entry.
In this special featurette, viewers get a peek inside Ojala’s workshop, witnessing firsthand the meticulous artistry that goes into bringing these demonic figures from the Shin Megami Tensei universe to life. Loup-Garou both played fairly prominent roles in the original SMT V game, before appearing again in the updated version. Gurulu is a staple for the Shin Megami Tensei series that didnāt appear in the original version of this game, but returned for the updated and enhanced release.

This partnership combines Slipknot’s mask aesthetic with the world of Shin Megami Tensei. The idea is to offer fans a glimpse into the creative process behind these designs and what they would look like when brought into the real world.
Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance will be available on PlayStation, Nintendo Switch, PC via Steam, and Xbox on June 14, 2024.
