This time around, we take a look at Delamancha, and a very specific one, located at the entrance of the Karakucho district.

Of course, this particular location will prove very familiar to Yakuza fans, as it’s a parody of the Don Quijote megastore at the entrance of Kabukicho in Shinjuku, Tokyo.

The same store (with its real name) appears in many Yakuza games in the series’ own rendition of Kabukicho, Kamurocho.

As in previous trailers, the video ends with a horoscope for today in the form of a ranking of zodiac signs. Pisces is revealed at the luckiest sign, while Libra is at the bottom.

You can check it out below.

Soul Hackers 2 releases for PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and PC (Steam and Windows Store) on August 26, just one day after the Japanese launch on August 25.

You can check out the original trailer, plenty of screenshots, another trailer about Jack Frostone about pizza, one focusing on Dormarth, one on Bugbearone on Hare of Inaba, and one on Tsuchigumo, and one on the convenience store Breaking Mart.

Here’s how Atlus officially describes the game:

“Soul Hackers 2 inherits the essence of Devil Summoner: Soul Hacker, while evolving the game concept with a more defined art style, addictive RPG gameplay and ATLUS’s next-level storytelling. Set in the Shin Megami Tensei universe, Soul Hackers 2 follows a brand new story about two Agents of Aion, Ringo and Figure, and their fight to stop the destruction of the world.

Produced and directed by Eiji Ishida and Mitsuru Hirata, other featured staff includes music composed by MONACA, character designs by Shirow Miwa and Production Manager Shinjiro Takata,”
