The Shin Megami Tensei series (真・女神転生, Shin Megami Tensei)?, abbreviated as SMT, is the largest of the branches in the Megami Tensei franchise. It started with Shin Megami Tensei and maintains many of the traditional aspects of the original Megami Tensei. The "shin" (真) in the title translates to "true", but another Japanese character also called "shin" (新) means "new", and is a play on words in Japanese.

To help market the Megami Tensei franchise in the west, the respective branch of Atlus would attached the title of Shin Megami Tensei to many Megami Tensei franchise games belonging to different sub-series entirely, after the localization of Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturne. Some instances of this include several titles from the Persona series.[1][2] While the Shin Megami Tensei moniker has been used for multiple games outside the Shin Megami Tensei series, it was dropped from Persona 4 Golden and the Persona 4 Arena duology as it would have made the titles unwieldy.[2]

Trivia

  • According to Atlus, the series title is translated as "True Goddess Metempsychosis": Metempsychosis refers to the series' trademark theme of reincarnation.[3]
