1st Anniversary Contents
AR Devil Scanner
This will be released in V1.6.0 and allows you to negotiate with demons in AR.
Certain objects have a demon tied to them. By scanning with the AR function, you'll be able to see the specific demon.
It'll be possible to bring demons that you've negotiated with in AR into the main game. The demons that can be brought in will be limited to Clear archetype, and it'll be different somehow.
Even if you can't use AR, you'll be able to get the same benefits by the friend function and other ways. In addition, you'll also be able to get similar benefits by participating in a guild from your guild members.

Story Expansion
The second part of the story will be added. In this new added story, the story will branch depending on the Protagonist's Alignment - Law/Neutral/Chaos.
This new story will be similar to the past mainstream SMT games.
Demon Transformer
With this, you'll be able to customize Fiends, Heroes, Skills and more. You'll also be able to make demons with custom skills.
By using this, you'll also be able to fuse Clear Archetype Fiends & Heroes that couldn't be fused until now. The demons modified with this will get a Skill Tree alike to that from the Devil Summoner series.
Mitama
Mitamas can be used to increase stats. The increase in stat gain will depend on how variable the stats are.
Aura Gate Expansion
The new area in Aura Gate will be added. There'll be a completely different way of playing it compared to the previous Aura Gate.

Archetype Change
You will be able to change a demon's archetype in the 1st anniversary.
