Shin Megami Tensei Liberation Dx2 is finally available on Google Play Store and App Store, and be sure to read our review here.

As the game might be overwhelming to beginners, here are game mechanics to bear in mind when you start:

Fuse It

Fusion will be one of the primary ways for you to get new demons in the game. As you may have noticed from playing for a bit, you will will be able to recruit them through convincing them in dialogue, but what should you do if you have dupes?

This is where the fusion system comes into play and just as the case in other SMT and Persona games, you will be able to fuse together two (or more later) demons together to create a new one altogether.

Show Me The Money

If you find yourself struggling to convince monsters to join your cause, there is nothing a bit of money cannot fix. By that we mean the use of Macca, the game’s premium currency. Of course, there is no real need to shell out real world cash for it, unless you want to of course, as you will be able to farm for it to summon new demons to your party.

Talk It Out

As you engage in conversation with certain monsters, you will notice they are not the most friendly of creatures, as some are downright hostile or just callous. In such situations, you will need to change the way you speak to such demons, and in some cases, joking around or being aggressive back might just do the trick in convincing them.

The Flesh Is Weak

Weaknesses and resistances has always been part of the core gameplay element of any SMT game, and it is no different here. As you engage in combat, you will be able to see what the demons you face are weak to or strong against. Understanding and exploiting this information will be key to victory. The data will be available to you if you had previously summoned the demon in question, so be sure to take that in account when you face enemies of the same type in future encounters.

Power Overwhelming

Once you have gotten demons, they are not at their full potential at the start, so even if you get the best ones, there is much work involved in making them number one.Speak to the Shrine Maiden, and you will be able to feed your demons with rare items (or other demons) to make them stronger. Ideally, you want a strong demon right off the bat, but if you get something that is less than the best, there is always this option for you to give them a leg up.
