Megami Tensei II
Shibuya is located atop a plateau, which is accessible through a tunnel in Roppongi. Balam is the head of a cult in the city and has bewitched the residents into revering him. The hero can only battle him if his intelligence is 7 or higher. He drops the Moon Pillar upon defeat. An old man in the area will give the hero the Water Talisman after the heroine rubs his back. The Intelligence Building, a facility heavily guarded by robots, is located here, where the hero can play Devil Busters again and acquire the Devil Analyzer for his COMP upon completion. If the hero has received the Amitabha's Might from a priest in Ginza, he can gain the Kuchinawa Sword by circling around the Hachiko statue three times and then facing it. Doing so teleports him to a small island in the Expanse, where he finds Naga with a sword embedded in its back, pinning it to the ground. By helping the demon, the hero receives the Kuchinawa Sword and the option to recruit the Naga.

Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne
After hearing about a bloody riot taking place at Yoyogi Park the protagonist decides to check it out. While trying to sneak into the closed park he meets an occult magazine writer named Hijiri who talks about two opposing cults. After The Conception, Shibuya becomes a neutral city where demons and souls congregate. Hito-Shura can meet Jack Frost here and also finds out that Chiaki Tachibana survived the Conception.

Shin Megami Tensei IMAGINE
Shibuya has been overrun with crystalline structures, which can be seen all over the ruins of the city. The crystals began forming with the appearance of the Obelisk at the city's center, not long after the construction of Shinjuku Babel.

Shibuya links to Shinjuku Babel to the north and Shinagawa to the south. Celu Tower is located in the south-west towards the exit to Shinagawa and Shibuya Quartz is found in the centre in between the 901 and the Obelisk. The entrance to the Subway is found further east of Quartz, where a statue of Hachiko and a special plasma that may contain a Blade of the Thunder God is located.

Many Fairy and Jirae demons are found throughout Shibuya, as well as Harpies and two of the Harpy sisters, Ocypete and Kelaino. Accomplished variations of Knockers, Hua Po, Sudama, Dwarves and Oberon and the three Harpy sisters, including Aello, can be found occassionally. A special Lucky Titania variation is also found occassionally.

Like in Ichigaya and Nakano, Shibuya has several field bosses based on the Obelisk. Embodiment of Form boss variations of Angel, Baphomet and Artemis can be fought at certain coordinates. Baphomet also spawns several Bicorn along with it.

A special field boss, the Mad Avatar Raphael can be found in the central road to Shinagawa, east of Celu Tower. He comes accompanied with several Embodiment of Form Angels and Powers, as well as Deformed Powers. His appearance in Shibuya is announced as a booming voice resonates throughout the entire field. Should the player have accepted a certain quest from a Templar Knight in front of Arcadia in Shinagawa, defeating Raphael is required to complete it. Reporting the Mad Avatar Raphael's defeat back to the Templar Knight will grant the player Raphael's plug-in.

Shin Megami Tensei IV
Found in the Roppongi Region, the city had been revamped by the Ashura-kai into the major meeting ground for demons wanting Red Pills. Special parties for them and guest humans are hosted at Club Milton until recently, where Koga Saburo has forced them to halt such activities. The underground district is larger than in other districts, being divided into several sections.

Shin Megami Tensei IV Apocalypse
Shibuya is the second location that Nanashi and company must battle Shesha.

The protagonist and Morgana move to Shibuya in the spring, where Syujin High School is located. The team's first target as Phantom Thieves is also located here.

Devil Survivor
Shibuya is the location where the protagonist, Yuzu, and Atsuro meet on the Day Before and where they first use the altered COMPs received from Naoya. Upon activation, the Demon Summoning Program summons three demons that they must form a contract with.

Each day during the Tokyo Lockdown, the party returns here to sleep in a shelter at night. Shibuya is also the location of Miyashita Park, where the party discovers Mari is being stalked by the vampire Kudlak.

Genei Ibunroku#FE
Shibuya is the location of a concert put on by the pop singer Kiria that is interrupted by the arrival of hostile Mirages. The Shibuya 106 Building (a fictional stand-in for the 109 Building) is somehow warped and becomes a dungeon labyrinth with a fashion theme.
