Is Eternal Poison still worth playing in 2026?

A dark tactical RPG from Atlus, Eternal Poison unfurls grid based turn battles in a gothic dark fantasy world, where you capture demons to flesh out your arsenal and where several interweaving scenarios enrich the story. The polished art direction, the depth of the capture system and the heavy atmosphere appeal to fans of demanding SRPGs. The high difficulty and a slow pace call for investment. A gem for fans of tactical RPGs and Atlus signature dark fantasy.
