- Demon encyclopedia: An A5 book of 116 pages containing artwork and descriptions of the 200+ demons appearing in SMT V

All of the Limited Edition is included in a case with an illustration themed around the “tree of knowledge” featured in SMT V.
In Japan, as it’s always the case with new game releases, SMT V will have shop specific pre order bonuses. You can check out the list yourself on the official site if you’re planning to import.
As a side note, right now Atlus Japan regularly publishes new SMT V short trailers, introducing the game’s demons. Only four introduction videos have been released so far, but it’s worth keeping an eye on them. Some of the demons in SMT V have new character designs. Some were not featured in Persona 5, and are getting modeled in 3D and HD for the first time.
