SEGA and ATLUS have released a new “Daily Demon” video for Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance, introducing the demon Mothman. This fan-favorite demon returns from the original Shin Megami Tensei V.
Previously, the May 17 Daily Demon video for Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance introduced Anansi, a hero of the Ashanti and other tribes in West Africa. In the folklore, he’s known as a trickster that excels with extraordinary wit and cunning.

Returning in Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance, Mothman is a cryptid sighted in West Virginia from the 1960s to 1980s. It has red eyes and finlike appendages on both sides of its body. It can walk on two feet, and its sense for blood allows it to track its prey very easily.
