Soul Hackers 2 came out of nowhere back in February, when it was announced for PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4, targeting August release dates. The Shin Megami Tensei spinoff is all about style, story, and slick turn based combat — but we've yet to really see the game in prolonged action.
Fortunately, as picked up by Persona Central, Soul Hackers 2 got some uninterrupted gameplay footage during a recent Japanese livestream. It's only five and a half minutes long, but it should give you a good idea of how things flow.
It looks solid (and again, really stylish), but we'd still love to see more. The only thing we're not totally keen on is the camera perspective while exploring — it seems incredibly close to the main character, to the point where a whole chunk of the surrounding environment is largely obscured.

Looks great. Always love their art style!
Soul Hackers 2, Monochrome Mobius, One Piece Odyssey. Are all on my 2022 list.
Keep the turn-based jRPG coming!
This is going to look mighty fine on PlayStation 5, hopefully supports 4K
Kinda don’t like how Xenoblade 3 and this are coming out only a month a part and they both seem massive, but this seems like a sizable step up from even SMT V imo so I’m really hyped.
I haven’t played the first Soul Hackers so I really, really hope this is a stand-alone or easy to pick up series. This will fill my Persona crave for the time being when it releases
@CWill97 As someone thats played the first one this looks very much standalone.
This game looks better and better the more I see it. Definitely keeping an eye on this one!
so excited for this game! glad to see uninterrupted gameplay. can't wait for August!
Still waiting for them to remaster or remake the first Soul Hackers...
